And So It Goes

Our chublet is growing leaps and bounds each day. His reflux is waning with the use of Prevacid, but his eczema seems to be an ongoing battle. We are not exactly sure how much Noah weighs, but he is already inching out of 6 month clothing…gulp! He is scheduled for his two month check-up on Monday…keep you posted!

Elijah has been experimenting with taste lately. Everything he sees he attempts to put in his mouth. This has resulted in several, “EW! Don’t eat that!” and one panicked phone call to poison control (1-800-222-1222…POST IT!).

Kami is doing very well in homeschool. She is keeping a blog, which is more of a creative writing journal. If you want to see what she is doing you can get a glimpse into her world.

There are many families in our homeschool group, and most have eons of experience. I have found this to be extremely helpful. I am very “green” when it comes to this homeschool stuff and I am not above asking for help and guidance. We are slowly getting a groove and she seems to be learning and adjusting well.

We have a lot of field trips planned with other families, joined new clubs and have found the best educational resources. I am amazed and at times overwhelmed. I know it is not everyone’s “cup of tea”, but I am blessed to be able to be 100% involved with our children’s education. Trust me we can totally relate to the lines of questioning we get regarding our decision…we are just beginning to answer them for ourselves.

On a sadder note, Jim's father passed away. My sister and her family are traveling to Florida today. Please keep the Calvert Family in your prayers.

John and I are continuing our post-baby workouts. We plan to be buff-er by the holidays. Our diets are as creative as Aldi’s will allow, but all is well so far!
