Currently {Week 8 of 52}

- Got him a new Ipad case, finally!  He's been watching Nova segments on the elements.  He's fascinated with them right now.
- Still obsessed with Minecraft.  We have to enforce time limits, but I'm nearly ready to kick the game out of our house!  If there can't be moderation = goodbye!
- Just finished second book of 'The Beyonders'.
- Finished soccer, wants to try basketball
- Is the most upset about moving, really doesn't want to leave this house and location
- Has been testing his limits and the consequences that go along with that.  Punching walls will also be followed up with a consequence!  There are acceptable ways to express anger, this is not one of them!  However, feel free to go crazy on your pillow!


- Does homework in her room, at her desk.
- Sings with Jayden, love it!  She is a great singer.
- Is so happy to be out of primary and into YW.  Her first activity was with the YM, she was tied to two 17 year old boys and had to eat spaghetti with her arms attached to theirs!  Talk about being thrown into the lion's den!  She thought that was pretty crazy!
- REALLY wants a phone!  
- Is trying the 'Leventhumps' series, after G recommended it.
- Is dreaming about her future room, having a hard time deciding what colors she wants her walls.


- This one is not so into Minecraft, thank heavens!  He's back to Subway Surfer on his Ipad.
- Brought home a writing sheet that his teacher made a big deal about.  He writes like a first grader!  
- Still says he loves me more than I love him.  Melts my heart.
- Is so amazing when it comes to his chores and work.  NEVER complains and is proactive in getting stuff done.  He knows what he is responsible for and he gets it done daily.
- If I ask him to help me he just says ok.  He'll stop what he's doing and come right away.  It's amazing!  Q is also good at this, the other two, not so much!
- Got to play with Jackson from his pre-k class.  Has been the first time since summer.  Was great to reunite, like no time has passed.
- Into Teenage Mutan Ninja Turtles cartoon.

- Into Teenage Mutan Ninja Turtles cartoon.
- Is so smart with math.  He totally gets the CORE teaching.  He is a smarty pants.
- Is also still obsessed with Mine Craft, is also being threatened with it being taken away based on behavior regarding this blasted game!
- I took him to get a treat for a perfect test score and he was so thoughtful, said to me, 'Mom, let's get my treat from the dollar store instead.  We need to save our money for our new house.'  It was so thoughtful!  I loved it!  He is committed to our team effort, even in this .30 way!  I loved it!
- Has also said, 'We don't need to move because this house is awesome.'  It was such a well timed comment as Matt and I have been in and out of many discussions!
- Has amazing dance moves and is uninhibited when the music comes on!
- Enjoys shooting baskets with G downstairs.
