Been absent lately...

...sorry about that! October has seemed super busy and full this year. One thing that did happen though, back on the 5th our Miss Mercy turned 3! We didn't do anything fancy or even dress in decent clothes for the day (you can tell by the pictures, lol) but she truly enjoyed having some cake. If you can't tell by her eyes and the close proximity she kept to the cake. It made for one happy little birthday girl.

Can you tell?

With pink and purple chocolate butterflies...

...yum.

It may have been simple,

...but she turned 3 just the same.

And everyone was glad for an excuse to have a treat. :)

Until next time!

We have been doing fairly well staying on our school schedule this year.
We've made it one month, whoo hoo! ;)

And even in that short month Caleb's reading skills have greatly improved and it is very encouraging.

Charis I have found to be an extreme perfectionist and she doesn't want to try something new if she's thinks she can't do well at it. (I wonder where she got that from?) Her coloring skills have amazed us all as she get down to shading and everything.

Mercy is loud, and busy and trying to keep her occupied during school is a challenge! :D

Julia sleeps for part of school (yay!) but with her shortening morning naps she inevitably wakes before we are done. I have to keep an eye on her as she eats crayons, marker tops and pencil erasers EVERY second I turn around!

School is a very busy time around here. :)
