This weekend we did our February Family Fun – SLEDDING! It was pretty cold – like 2* cold {and that’s actual temperature – not wind chill!}. But we were all so excited I genuinely don’t think any of us noticed! We had gotten a decent little snowstorm and didn’t want to be on the roads …
{RESOURCES} Black History Month & President’s Day
Something I have wanted to be better at doing is incorporating holidays and other extras into our school learning. I don’t feel like I do great at this but this last week The Good and the Beautiful made it pretty hard to not do anything! I have never seen them do these before {but I …
New Year Showcase
Extra activities have been a rough go the last year! Our kiddos are not involved in a lot, but dance has been one thing that Sarah has been able to continue doing. She loves it and we were so glad that we could finally get together to watch her perform with her class. They performed …
Stander
The day after Lydia’s ABR, she had a BIG physical therapy appointment. On top of all of Lydia’s doctor’s appointments, she is still receiving physical therapy, feeding therapy, language therapy, and they are talking about starting occupational therapy 😳. It’s A LOT. There’s no other way to put it. But we love Lydia’s therapists and …
ABR
Last week, Lydia had her ABR {auditory brainstem response} test. We were having some concerns about her hearing. It is a debated issue around here how well Lydia hears. We don’t really know if she knows her name or anything else really. She’s had two “booth” screenings and they came back inconclusive. They basically told …
Hogle Zoo
Since we’ve been making so many trips the last couple of months over to Salt Lake, we decided it was time to add some fun to the mix. PLUS, this was the perfect activity to wrap up our mammals unit we’ve been doing in science {more on that later!}. But the MOST IMPORTANT reason to …
EEG
Since we are three hours away, we really try and make the most of our appointments at Primary’s. This day was a LONG one but we were able to get a lot done! Lab Work First up, was lab work. After our last meeting with the neurologist, they put in more lab work for this …
Family Game Night
It felt like January flew by in a FLASH! Our family made a goal this year to bring back our monthly “family fun” activities. We got pretty inconsistent this last year {can we blame COVID? 😉} and we want to get back to it! January almost slipped by us, but we decided to do a …
Jacob Scott
I am in complete denial that Jacob is going to be nine years old this year. Where is the time going? As crazy as it is though, it is also exciting to think that we are entering this new phase in parenting. I have definitely noticed a maturity in Jacob over the last couple months. …
{REVIEW} The Good and the Beautiful Math: Level 2
I love the math by The Good and the Beautiful. I said it. I love it! It is so solid and it is Jacob’s favorite subject. He spends a slightly crazy amount of time flipping through his math books during his free time. That’s how much we love it around here. It’s gold. So here …
