I Had A Great Weekend!!

I spent the entire weekend with Cayce and the kids. On Friday night, Cayce came home and cooked neckbones and rice with some field peas and snaps for dinner. We played with the girls and had a tea party. On Saturday, Cayce and I spent the day doing relaxing things but spent time together and the girls played and watched tv. Cayce got a new game and he played it all day on Saturday and I was doing swagbucks all day. We didn't do any household chores, and we went shopping. We got some more food, movies and neccessities for the house.

Yesterday, We cleaned the house and I sent Cayce to Kmart and Bi-Lo. He got the meal deals from Bi-Lo and Cayce got some more things that we needed. I made beef stew in the crock pot last night and it was delicious.

I have been working my butt off on Swagbucks. Hopefully, I'll be getting the big box of wipes tomorrow. I'm working on getting the Wii Turbo wheel and gun for a game Cayce bought the other night.

This morning, Cayce took the car to the mechanic to get it fixed. That car had a bunch of problems, and it will be fixed today and wednesday. On Wednesday, the car will be getting realigned and tires rotated. We also get to pick up the girls christmas presents from the Salvation Army.

Well, I'm going to go cook supper.
Night All

Rescheduling Samantha's School

We took this week off from school because everyone in the house was sick. So I have rescheduled the last 10 weeks and she will be ending her school in the beginning of March. We will be resuming our work on Monday.

I bought Sammy a alphabet preschool workbook last night from walmart. She is having some difficulties with letters, so we will be working out of her workbook after this school year ends, which will be March for her and we will be doing the workbook until August of 2013. She will start the Sounds Curriculum which will be 36 weeks long.

I also want to send my prayers and thoughts out to the children and their families of the school shooting in Connecticut today. Finding out about this today only pushed and finalized my decision to homeschool the girls for good. This world is not safe and I will not be letting my children out of my sight.

Prep. Curriculum: Week 15

The week's theme was rain. I'm not going to go into much detail for this post. I will describe what she did on the following days, but I just don't have the energy to detail every day.

On Monday, I printed her a picture of a rain storm.

On Tuesday, I gave her the day off because she was helping me around the house to clean it up and make room for our groceries. On Wednesday, I burnt my fingers, and had to go to the doctor. She colored her oval's on Thursday and also did the letter O.

On Friday, she did the number 15.

This week, I'm giving her a break since we are both sick. We will resume her school next Monday.

 

Weekend Update

The weekend was rocky for me. My fingers bothered me and and Cayce worked all weekend. he had his work christmas party last night and I got a cold. Im being beatin up. I have so much to do today, but I dont have the energy. We got our dresser yesterday and I have to put our clothes so we can be a little bit more organized.

I'm going to go take a nap.

Burned Fingers

Yesterday, I planned on posting, but to my non carefulness, I got burned by steam. I was cooking some lunch in the microwave and I grabbed the plastic film and BAM, intense burning and stinging. I cried because it hurt so bad. I never got burned so badly. I had to call Cayce home from work and have him take me to the doctor. They put silvadene on it, and immediate relief.

It was hard to do anything last night, I couldnt do any chores and Cayce had to wash my hair for me.
I had to double up on Samantha's school work today. She did good though.

I have a big blister on my right index finger and it is the size of my fingernail. The blister on my middle finger is not that big.

Well, I'm done with the computer for tonight.

Prep. Curriculum: Week 14

The week's theme was horses. She has only been up close to a horse once, but will point them out in a heartbeat when we are going down the road.

The vocabulary word was mane. She didnt understand it. She kept calling it hair, so we went with that. On Tuesday, the color was brown. Since the interior of our house is brown, she caught on to it quick. On Wednesday, we did the letter N. I didn't take any pictures.

 

I gave her Thursday off from school. She was well behaved and she helped me around the house. On Friday, we did the number 14.  have to help her remember to say 12 because she will skip it and got to thirteen and keep repeating.

 

She is just gettin big too fast and she learns more and more everyday. A year ago, we couldn't understand a word she was saying and she was still in speech.

Short Post

This weekend has flown by. I didn't have a really good day today. I was disappointed with tonight's episode of The next iron chef redemption, my favorite chef went home. That sucks. I'm still trying to reach my personal goal on Swagbucks for today.

I will post about Samantha's school week tomorrow.

Goodnight all!
