January fun

Routine is wonderful to return to after the holidays.  We missed our homeschool coop friends the most.  The following shots were taken the coop before Christmas where we decorated our own ornament and baked gingerbread cookies.


The other children are kind, often sharing their food with Bubby as they have their snacks.







I had to include the picture above because Bubby has grown comfortable at the coop, the other children are no longer strangers and if they have some gingerbread he feels they should share, he won't hesitate to let them know!

"Huggles" still occur often which is getting harder despite our king size bed.  The kids are just too big!  Occasionally we get in a hike on Sunday's with Baba.  Bubby does well with some motivation, we can see him getting stronger each day.
WE have a new respite worker, Ms. Mary.  She's wonderfully grandmotherly for Eli and all the children and as soon as she arrives Eli takes her hand and brings her to the backyard to get his daily swinging in!

AZ on the rocks is still a monthly thing that the oldest two love!  Keila has a daredevil inside and works hard and harder on different walls.  Isaac is working on his fear of heights and while bouldering is still more appealing, he did make it to the top.  I love how these two are working hard on individual goals.  They were tuckered out so we HAD to get some milkshakes to share!



Isaac and I managed to catch the early morning lunar eclipse.
We also caught a performance of Romeo and Juliet which Bug loved and Pumpkin tolerated well for a three year old!


Weve also joined Pizza Hut's reading program that gives free individual pizzas if the kiddos meet their goal.  For Bug she is to read daily from her readers while Bud has been reading biographies.  We've been working with Bubby with phonics and hope he will be reading before he's speaking.

Family fun in Fountain Hills where we watched Native American hoop dancing and played in the park.




While I may be behind in posting it is fun to relive these memories and hope they will be relived again.
