Tadpoles and Cows
After a nice rain we get so much water pooled in the runoff area at the bottom of our yard. Here lies a fantastic breeding ground for froggies (and probably mosquitoes, but they haven’t been too bad these days). This situation absolutely calls for traipsing around in rain boots, looking for tadpoles and frogs.
A Turtle Surprise
My lovely Laelia is going to be two in a week. Two! So, I wanted to take her to the beach to do some fun birthday pictures there. She was quite photogenic today and I was snapping her precious little self with my camera. When we were about done, the other two girls ran over […]
First Day of School
Today was our first official day of homeschooling. We have a wonderful rhythm that we follow each day. Today we jumped back into the schooling part of our rhythm. The girls enjoyed it tremendously.
A Case of the Grumpies and a Tool Box
Today we were having quite a fussy morning…not me so much, but a couple of my little ladies. Poor Willow.

Our Homemade Terrarium
I can’t say that every day is filled with adventure at our house. But today, we had a great adventure for our lesson. I thought it would be a lot of fun and a great learning experience to make a terrarium.

My Little Chefs
Ask Chloe what she wants to do when she grows up and she will tell you she wants to “Cook spaghetti!” She’ll also follow it up with a list of delicious things she wants to cook and bake. She says she’s going to own her own restaurant with a purple roof and she’s going to […]
{Potty Parties} Babies on potties?? What??
In our family, we begin our children on the potty at birth. “What??” is the reaction I usually get to that information, unless the person has already heard of this concept (also called “elimination communication” or ECing and “infant potty training”). Did you know that we are among the few countries in the world that do […]
2011 {A Fabulous Year in Review}
