Another school year has begun. Ava will continue 4Th grade, Matthew 3rd. I'll admit for those of you who are not there yet, the work doubles in these grades...fair warning. We are hanging in there nevertheless, with some field trips and hands on projects will help us through it with some fun! History continues to be the favorite for both with Math the least(really no way to make that fun.) Rachael is in Kindergarten this year and loving the fact she also has school work along with her brother and sister. She does really well with it and since we started it over the summer she is almost done with some of the phonics and writing lessons for this year. Gymnastics, baseball, piano, soccer, and horseback riding are their extra curricular activities for the fall. If I get a chance I'll post some pics of their projects and activities!
Also, you might have noticed the pics below with kids and shower caps. Well we had our first (and hopefully last) experience with lice. When Rachael/Ava went in for their well checks, their pedi noticed it (how humiliating for mom.) She told us that mayo and a shower cap on for 4 hours does the trick. She was right...it got rid of all of it. We only had to comb out the nits for a few days after that. I couldn't resist the picture moments. Rachael passed out doing her school work on the last photo.
