We are achieving a pretty good balance of doing school and having some break time. This week was a good mix of working on our Olympic unit studies, swimming, and playing with friends. Rachel finished up swimming this week which will be one less place to have to be. She really enjoyed it, and I’m glad she really seemed to learn lots.
Monday: A trip to the library started off our day. Kathryne had already finished one reading record- 15 hours, and I had finished two records-6 books. We came home and accomplished some school, moving along with our Olympic unit study- which we are all enjoying. Then I headed out to take Ashlyne to the gym and then Rachel to swim. We hung around the pool after Rachel’s swim team and let everyone swim for open swim time.
Tuesday: We skipped out on doing school to go and play with some friends. My friend actually let me leave and get lunch by myself (Woohoo) while my kiddos played with hers! We headed home just in time for another round of gym, then swim.
Wednesday: We started our day with dental appointments for all four children. Everyone had good hygiene and no cavities. But, Ashlyne needed two baby teeth pulled – because they wouldn’t come out on their own. She was a real trooper and really wasn’t bothered at all by the process. Kathryne may have to have braces and potentially oral surgery. She has a permanent tooth growing sideways under her baby tooth. Uggh. I was really hoping to avoid braces. After our eventful dentist trip, we finished up some school and our cousins came over to play. Then another round of gym and swim and open swimming for all.
Thursday: We caught up on some school in the morning without having to go anywhere. Hooray. Thursday afternoon was gym. For swimming, Rachel had her last meet. She did a good job.
