Well we’ve pretty much had a really calm week. Declan came down sick Monday night and is still not 100%.

See:

Ziah being Ziah..well she ws sick too for a few hours:

Wednesday Declan was still sick but begged to do some school so we started learning about Farms! Ziah is working on the Down on the Farm lapbook from HOAC.

Declan is working on a farm Pocket Book  from Evan Moor.

To conclude our lesson we had an egg hunt with some farm animal eggs I got on clearance after Easter:

Noah reading thru his Simple Machines Research Guide from Hands of a Child.

Yesterday was another quiet day.. the kids just lounged around and Declan felt better.Declan and Noah both went to karate.

Today they all still feel kinda icky so they’ve been just lounging around..it’s a good day since we woke up to some nice fresh snow! So this is what my house has looked like today more or less.

Oh and for you who think I keep my house so perfect..notice the HUGE piles of stuff on the bookcase..been there 3 days. I really really need to file it all away.. I am working on it I promise!

Declan’s fever came back so he’s been a mush on the couch..here’s Taejan charing his sippy cup asking Declan “You feel better now?”:

Oh last night at Karate Noah got his yellow belt.. not bad eh? He’s only been there for about 7 weeks now and he’s on his 3rd rank!

and Jadziah thinks she wants to go back to Karate ( she’ll go to a class tomorrow with Eric to be sure) so I took out her gi from last year..well it sure doesn’t fit..but look who it did fit:

he’s even ready for weapons training! He walks around the house doing his “Kiai” ( ya know when they say “Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii”) all the time..I can’t wait until he’s ready for Karate too!!
