I haven't posted in a couple of weeks:(  I was sick and so were both kids so we were on a bit of a modified school schedule.  In the middle of that, was my birthday.  Not the most fun birthday.  Here are a few pics of the kiddos at the pumpkin patch.  I need to get the good pics off the big camera.  These are just from my phone.





Jaron working on counting by 10's.  He picked this up fast! 


Addison loves to draw.  She copied this from one of Jaron's cutting activities.


Addison is on schedule to finish her 1st grade reading/grammar the week after Christmas with Math not far behind.  I think we will be adding some supplemental activities before we dive into the 2nd grade stuff.  I am due Dec. 19th (hoping for earlier) so we will probably slow down or take a little break from school when baby gets here.  We will also be doing some Advent activities in December:)

Jaron continues to LOVE cutting!  He is doing very well with his Hooked On Phonics Kindergarten Program.  He loves the sticker chart and is so proud when he finishes a reader.  His writing skills are coming right along too.  Any time we get fine motor activities out, both kids get very excited.  Tongs, tweezers, etc. are so much fun for them!

I am busy preparing for Christmas and for baby.  I have 2 gifts left to buy for Christmas and have been sewing some for baby too!  Goal for the week is to look over the want/need list for baby and decide what I really need to get and pack hospital bags.  I should have a few weeks, but you never know!
