Our Week

Joy playing

Girls doing school work: they love working in front of the Bearded Dragon!  Sammi’s biome experiment

Playing around:

From School – we were learning about Russia and ballet.  They found one of the ballets we read about it on YouTube – very cool!  And this picture.  I couldn’t read out loud.  It would cause a coughing fit, so Jessi read to us!  Thanks babe!

During OT, I coughed and hacked (and vomited).  Our OT came back after our appointment and brought me her steaming pot and some essentials oils.  So very, very kind!

Cute girls

At Art Club the girls made these fun birds.  Lizzy gave hers to her friend.  Jessi got to go to the tween home school activity this week.  She had so much fun and made a new friend!

 

 

 

 

Sammi was sick and Jessi was dying from allergies, so Lizzy and I went on our Nature Walk.  We found some cool things!

Jason liked my Indian Hawthorne picture so much, he made it our background.

While Bella and I were gone for labs, Sammi and the girls played dress up and Sammi drew sketches.

Becca and her friend put the back on her quilt and started the quilting (easier to see on the blue)

Joy and I making cookies

Cute Joy playing

On Saturday we cleaned out the garage and all four big girls played with their friends.  Sammi has been reading the Hunger Games.  She and her friend played out parts of that world (not the yucky parts).  Becca and the girls making gluten free Oreo truffles.

Our nurses have gotten what we all have – so it’s been hit and miss with nursing coverage this week.  On Wednesday Bella had a long awaited pulmonary appointment.  I had promised the girls we would go to the Health Museum afterwards.  And then no nurse (and I’m still sick).  Well, I decided to just go.  So me, five children, and my cough headed downtown.  With all the craziness, I forgot my camera!  Ugh!  It was a very good pulmonary visit and we had so much fun at the Museum!  I just don’t have any pictures which is sad to me!

 

Huge, huge, huge!!!

Look – first steps (with assistance, but HUGE!!!)  So, so, so proud of you Bella!!
