The Little Drakelets: May 2015
http://rickandrachel.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 10, 2015. Sabbath at the Touchet River. Emmy tripped. She couldn't seem to regain her footing and her face got into the water. Abby rescued her from "drowning.". Ready Set. Go! Friday, May 8, 2015. Rolling from tummy to back and can push his upper body up for short times. Friday, May 1, 2015. Gave herself a hair cut. There sat Emmy on the floor surrounded by handfuls of hair, proudly chopping away. "Look mommy! Now I am bald like Uncle Reggie! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Living life at 110%.

DIY School Planner | My Craft Adventures
https://mycraftaventures.wordpress.com/2014/08/08/diy-school-planner/comment-page-1
So, there are big changes coming to our house this year. My son will be attending an online virtual public school after being homeschooled since preschool. Yikes doesn’t even begin to cover it. Anyway, we needed a planner so I hit up Pinterest! There were quite a few versions of the composition notebook transformed into a school planner. I mainly used the directions from Large Family Mothering for a Homeschool Planner for Under a Dollar. The first thing I changed was to use Duck tape in place of fabric.

Monthly Archives: December 2013. Wet Felting in Bags. Every year on Christmas Eve we pick a country, cook some food from it (their traditional Christmas food if we can find it) and do a craft from there as we watch a Christmas movie. This year we chose Latvia. Things got downgraded a bit due to illness and weather but we still had a good time with it! And so was the movie. We watched Arthur Christmas and if you haven’t seen this movie yet, you need to. Seriously. Ew But also kind of cool. Here’s wh...

Peep Jousting for fun and education | My Craft Adventures
https://mycraftaventures.wordpress.com/2014/05/04/peep-jousting-for-fun-and-education
Peep Jousting for fun and education. The boy and I have been studying heat energy and transfer in our homeschool. One way to demonstrate the concept of how gasses expand when heated is to heat a marshmallow in the microwave. The air in the marshmallow (of which there is a lot! Gets hot and expands and this, along with the softened sugar walls of the marshmallow, allow the marshmallow to grow. What’s even better than a plain marshmallow that gets huge and puffy? And what’s even better than that? Address n...

The Little Drakelets: June 2015
http://rickandrachel.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 29, 2015. At Conner's Mr. Carpet, Emmy uncharacteristically hid behind me when one of the employees tried talking to her. After he left, she turned to me and said, "Mommy, I sneered at that man! Emmy, what do you mean you sneered at him? I inquired thinking she didn't know what it meant. "Like this! She said, contorting her little face into an ugly mean expression. "Ok, I guess you do know what that means.". Tuesday, June 16, 2015. 1 What is something mom always says to you? To sleep and eat".

Sunday, June 29, 2014. I stumbled across a reality show on Amazon Prime, One born every minute. Follows a labor and delivery department in Columbus,Ohio that delivers over 6500 babies per year. Each episode features 4 births. My two youngest girls love to watch it with me. Since then, Emmy will randomly say, "Puuushhh! As she strains, ending with a shriek. Her baby ( always a girl) has arrived. Abby's underwear has developed a sag- a baby within. "Mommy, I need to take a baph so I can have my baby! Plus ...
