Some random domestic updates from the past few weeks….

What We Ate:

Leftover lunches.  In an attempt to bring more produce to the lunch table – and less grains for me once again – we have had veggies pureed into soup with milk and a bit of butter, veggie frittatas, and veggies and cheese wrapped in tortillas.  

I think my favorite request this month however was from Abbie who asked us to make her Girl Cheese sandwiches.  Who'd say no to that? ; )

What We Did Around the House:

Sorted.  Lots.    I have been gathering like things together and lumping them into small, medium or large bags.  Sometimes putting the bags into boxes like my sewing box or my knitting box. (this is the desk drawer) This way I can use them easily now and I know all those things will end up together when we move. 

What We Read:

Lots of picture books histories.  Two favorites were…

Farmer George Plants a Nation 

 Always Remember Me

A new Grace Livingston Hill for me. 

Surfing some parenting articles from this site with which I find myself nodding quite often. 

What the Weather Was Like:

Let's put it this way.  These two outfits happened in the same week.  

 

What's Happening at School:

The big kids are working to finish their quarter tests and reports.  There is regular journaling happening again, from all of us, hence this update.
