Children’s Museum

Yes, more fun was allotted for today. We headed over to the Children’s Museum. Boy was it great! There is so much to do, but Munchkin’s favorite was the Bubble Room. When you’re in the Bubble Room, you can make bubbles stretch…Or, you can step inside a ring and the bubble forms around you…Head over to the next room for an electrifying experience:Or maybe you’d like to see thermo images of yourself:Or try your hand at some strength building exercises like rock climbing… Then try out your mental skills as you try to solve a puzzle in a mirror…As you…

Thankful Thursday: Health

Posted in Family

I am constantly amazed at what the Lord provides. As you know, I have been very busy working on getting our new house ready for move-in while D has been away. Normally, I would have been sick at least once during this time period. Yet, the Lord has provided a glorious stretch of health for me. So, this week I will be dwelling on this blessing. * I am so grateful to the Lord for giving me a week of good health to enjoy with my daughter. * I am grateful that I’ve been able to accomplish most of the…

Progress

Posted in Family, Homemaking, and Thoughts

Ok, so I have made progress on my Tackle It Tuesday. I finished stripping the vinyl from the laundry room. There is still some glue left on the floor, but that doesn’t matter since the laminate will go right over it without a problem. I put down a rug, so we can walk on that area.In all honestly, I probably would have gotten more done if it wasn’t such a nice day. As you know, we went to the park for a good chunk of the day. Then, we played frisbee for a while and watered the flowers. We also…

Works for Me Wednesday: Laughing & Playing

Posted in Family, and Homemaking

With everything that we have going on right now, playtime and one-on-one time with Munchkin have become essential. And, guess what!! It’s essential for me too! I need that down time. It’s amazing how much better you feel when you have taken out time to really have fun with your child. It’s fun to see munchkin’s face light up with laughter as we’re playing together or reading together. It doesn’t matter what we do as long as it’s quality time together not working. Now, don’t get me wrong, it’s fun to work together as well, but we need that playtime…

Field Trip: Aquarium

Posted in Family, and Homeschooling

Well, I told Munchkin that we’d have some fun this week, so we started off the week by heading to the aquarium for a field trip. I have decided that it’s time to get that new camera. I can’t hold out any longer. I don’t want to miss out on memories due to a bad camera. Anyway, here are some pictures from our day. Munchkin petting and then feeding the horseshoe crab: We became small and travelled through the wetlands as little beings. Then we ran into this! The newest temporary exhibit was the penguins: One of the cutest creatures…
