I love taking pictures of other people, but I hate myself in pictures. I don’t mind taking them with a group or whatever, but when I see them, I hate them. I asked my friend to snap this one because I wanted to remember this moment. So, I love this picture because it reminds me of the moment. I was sitting on the beach in a really comfortable chair (thank you Angie) and my baby was asleep. It was sooooo relaxing. Normally, I’m watching the baby with one eye while the other eye is on the other three in the water. In this moment, I just sat back and watched the other three while this one slept. I also had uninterrupted adult conversation. Can you think of anything better than holding a sleeping baby while sitting on the beach? It was bliss.

Homeschool Lesson Planner Free Downloads
When I started planning out the year, I couldn’t find a lesson plan book that was exactly what I wanted. I’m a very digital girl, but certain things like lists, note taking and lesson planning, I need to hand write it. There were a few that almost had everything, but nothing exactly what I wanted. […]

New Blue “Numbered Cubbies” With Labels Instead
As I mentioned in another post, I am working on a new space in our home. In that post, I talked about making labels. It was to go on these new blue cubbies. Inspired by the “numbered cubbies” over at Ana White, I loosely followed this tutorial. I say “loosely” because I didn’t use her […]
