Sunday Planning

Sunday planning did not go as planned.  I was feeling horrible, and I think my kids picked up on it and started acting horrible and that was the end of that.  Pregnancy is not my best friend, that's for sure.  I feel unable to control my emotions and reactions, and I hate that.  So yesterday I spent much of my day in bed, just crying and reading.  I enjoyed it, but there was a lot of guilt there as well.  My husband called my mother and she came to rescue me.  I hate needing to be rescued, I would much rather be the rescuer.  And the truth of the matter is that I couldn't even explain what was wrong.  I knew in my head that nothing was wrong, our life is wonderful, we have amazing kids, but I just felt wrong.  Everything in me felt wrong.  I'm doing better today, but I still feel pretty off so we will see how it goes.  So this morning I did our gospel planning for Come Follow Me, in bed.  I don't usually do that as I fall asleep, but I just couldn't get myself going.  So I planned in bed.  As for our school planning, I think it's going to be more of a swing by the seat of our pants kind of week (that's a saying right?).  It's going to depend on how off I feel, and for how long.  I'm trying to be patient with myself and realize that I'm growing a baby and all that, but it's not working very well.  I hate feeling like I am not giving it 100%, but 100% looks different at different stages in life and I need to remember that.

Jesus Walking on the Water

Originally for gospel study I was printing coloring pages for them to color on, but I'm really loving just watching what they come up with.  It's so much more fun, and they get really into their drawings. Nora was upset about the black "narwhal" on her picture, because little sister Emy added that feature, and it was not appreciated.

Baby Time

I've mentioned before that this one is a very messy eater and so she usually gets a spray down in the sink in the morning which she absolutely loves. Then we get her dressed and have some reading time before school.  This morning she wasn't interested in sharing her chair...

Sophie Mouse

My girls LOVE the Sophie Mouse books, and to be honest so do I.  They are cute stories that build good character.  There is no questionable material in them, they are just good books! They are an early reader chapter book, so they have some illustrations, and the stories are fun and easy to follow.  Molly my 7 year old read them all last year. This year I read them aloud to Nora my 5 year old before bed, and she will probably read them on her own sometime next year.  She is still frustrated pretty easily by reading even though she can do it, so we keep things pretty short in that area for now.  If you haven't read the adventures of Sophie Mouse and you have little girls at home (or even little boys!) I highly recommend them!
