Reading in 1 Kings right now ... currently, it's working for me to do my reading via this Bible software prograom on my computer so this is where I sit in the morning, with coffee, of course.

And now the crafting is done. (Those are napkin rings.) : )

B's breakfast ... she found a bag of baby spoons in a drawer and thought if one was good then more is obviously better!

Resting after a tumble down the stairs outside. : (

Clean-up time before baths. Princess and My Little Pony parts e.v.e.r.y.w.h.e.r.e.

Definitely didn't take as many pictures today as on Monday. It was hard to stop and grab the camera while we were doing school. Hopefully I'll get a little better at is as the week goes on. : )

  2. You make me want iced tea. I really love the concept of these posts. I think I may have to try it for us at some point!

    In the meantime, thanks for the note you left on my site today. I have wondered what today would feel like and it's harder than I thought it would be. So thanks!

  3. My favorite picture is Rest Time!

    That looks like the best nap EVER...on top of made bed, under the blanket, fluffy pillow, comfy lack of clothing, but a cool drink nearby, in case one gets thirsty.

    The only thing that I would add to my picture, if I was to have such a wonderful nap (and then post it to the blog!) , is a book. If that was me in the pic, I would have a book that's left open by my side!

  5. Without sounding weird, you could post pregnant belly shots every day and I'd be happy.

    I love that my friends are still having babies.

  6. We love our High Five magazines.
    Have you downloaded the audio editions of each issue? Great resource.

  7. @abbiegrace: I think I saw on our recent issue that you could download the audio version, but I haven't tried that yet. Thanks for the tip!

  8. @Photographing Mom: The software is Logos Bible software. My husband uses it and I got it on my computer by default. It has WAY more to it than I use, but it's worked really well for me in the morning.

  12. @Melissa: Thanks for stopping by. : ) The afghan is one that my Mom made for me when I went to college a LONG time ago ... still use it almost daily!

  13. I smiled at the picture of the crafts. Not because of the focused objects but what's in the background - a US map and timeline. Exactly what every "good" home school family has on their walls. :) And the sweet tea? Totally craving it now.
