I'm not sure how Seth ever learned in school without his turtle, ninja, home depot apron, super cape, roller skating, baseball gloves, survivor buff, etc. costume. He assures me everyone needs baseball gloves and rollerskates to do school in. One benefit of homeschooling.

Help!!

What would a Dad do without the help of some MEN and a Superhero??

F is for.......Fish and Frogs!

Erik's letter of the week was F. He had a great time fishing and playing with frogs. It sounds like a wonderful week for a BOY!

Pigs

Seth had to make a clay pig for art. He did a great job. Erik had to make one too of course.

Letter A with popsicle sticks. Playing cookie matching with Grandma.

Erik School

One of the hardest parts of homeschooling, is keeping Erik entertained. I try to have projects ready to go for him. We also do a letter a week. His favorite is hammering golf tees into styrofoam. He also likes to do matching activities.

Happy Halloween!!!

We went to the trunk-or-treat at our church for Halloween this year. The boys came up with their own costumes from stuff we already had. I love that! That is how we did it growing up. They did a great job. Erik decided on his own too. He did change his mind 5 minutes before leave time, but with the help of all his brothers, we pulled his costume off. Thanks boys!!! We came home exhausted and full of sugar.

Counting Lesson

How does a Dad teach his little man how to count? He collects big, fat, yucky, tomato worms and then lines them up to count. Cute right? Well, afterwards, they did science experiments on how to destroy them. !?!?!

The primary colors are 1, 2, 3......

Seth had to paint a color wheel for art. His lesson was on primary colors. Thanks to a song he learned in primary, he already knew what they were.

Erik's Special Day

Erik turned three today. He was soooo ready for his birthday. He wanted a Cars birthday. He had a few friends and a loooot of cousins over. We painted with car wheels, raced an obstacle course, and threw car bean bags into a tire. He got lots of loot and had a great day. Most people say they can't believe their baby is growing up that fast. I say, are you sure he's only three? Love you my little man. (Sorry, I have no idea how to turn that picture. I'll have to call my blog CEO)
