1) We are at the Two-Week mark for being lice-free! I am still paranoid and scratching not convinced that we are in the clear, but I am breathing sighs of relief. Unfortunately, our neighbors just texted that they have it, so we'll still be playmate-less for another couple weeks. Let me know if anyone wants the deets on how I (so far) managed to keep the lice from reappearing and from spreading to any of my other 8 children! If you don't ask, I'll assume it's a topic we'd rather avoid discussing!
2) Ballet lessons began and Eowyn has done nothing but dance this week. Funny thing, it's Galadriel who began lessons. Eowyn begins next week.
Galadriel is so excited that she was placed in the pre-pointe class, which she's a little young for age wise. It's a half hour longer than the advanced beginning class, and she loves the challenge.
3) Sporting new bobbed haircuts because of (see #1). Cute though, right?
4) I am officially not nursing Sam. He is officially sleeping through the night in his own room. While I have always nursed my children for at least a year, (except for Aragorn who got cut short by three weeks because I was starting my second trimester with Gimli), I REALLY struggle physically with nursing. Think chronic mastitis, thrush, cracked and bleeding nipples... So, I do it for the nutrition and bonding, but it's a labor of love. While I hate my babies to grow up so fast, I am not going to lie--I am not sorry to be done with the nursing.
Sam seems to be ok with it too! |
6) My wise and prudent husband implemented a half-day on Friday rule, where if we get in good schooling 4 days of the week, we can do just Math and two other subjects on Friday. This was a brilliant idea. Ask me, I'm the teacher.
7) Really horrible pictures taken through my car window, and I was riding shotgun, but look at this!!
Happy Weekend!!
