September Busyness

We celebrated Jonathan's birthday at breakfast with candles in Jonathan's pancakes and of course, the boys wanted one candle each, too.

Proud grandparents. They finally have a granddaughter now!

Proud oldest brother. David loves Anna and is very helpful with getting things that I need when nursing or have my hands full. Benjamin is also a good helper and likes to let Anna suck on his pinky when she's fussing. James is amazingly gentle with her and goes over to her when she cries. He asks about her in the morning when he doesn't see her since she's in her crib.

The boys got into space shuttles and astronauts when they watched a video about them. Benjamin decided to build a space helmet and wore it along with his "space"boots.

The first day of Kindergarten for David - September 6th! We are loving homeschooling. The material we use is a great, Bible based curriculum called My Father's World. We supplement the math with Math-U-See - a great hands-on, verbal and visiual curriculum that David really likes. We started Kindergarten the second week that Jonathan was home after Anna was born.

Anna loves her swing! She's doing really well with sleeping and having good awake times during the day. She nurses usually two times in the night which is pretty good for her little tummy. She sleeps in the crib in the baby room now with all the boys in the big room (James on the bottom bunk, Benjamin on top and David on the single bed).
