A lot of firsts....

With the summer winding down we have started back to all our running around. The last week of August we started back to school. This year Mark and Caitlin are both homeschooling so I decided to try a unit study with them. After looking at several different ones we chose Adventures in Our Father's World. Let me just say I love it. The kids beg me to do school work. One of our first lessons was for the kids to learn what their names mean and we got to make a cake for our fun craft.

Sept. 9th my babies started back to "school". I decided this year that I would buy them backpacks that they could carry themselves. They love them. When it is time to go somewhere Elizabeth asks where her backpack is. My babies are growing up too fast.

On Sept. 10th we started back to Community Bible Study where we are studying Genesis. This year all 4 kids get to go with me.

And last but not least, on the 15th the girls started dance. This is Caitlin's 3rd year and Elizabeth's first year. As soon as Elizabeth put on her leotard she was dancing around the house. She was so excited to be able to go to dance just like Caitlin does that she didn't nap that day.
