Homestead Longings

I CAUGHT HER!!!!

LOL... I caught my dd on camera trying to sneak treats from the pantry. She has been really bad about that lately. She finds whatever she can to climb on and get to things like cookies and candy. I usually don't keep that much around, but dh brought home  an entire CASE of girl scout cookies a while back. Alex is addicted. A few days ago she managed to climb up and get a box of daddy's cookies from on top of our bedroom tv cabinet and eat like 8 - 10 cookies before we caught her. She kept putting the cookie box right back after she grabbed a few. What gave her away was the chocolate covered teeth!

Yesterday turned out to be a good day, and today is following along nicely. Yesterday I ditched school and any other plans we really had to kick the kids outside. We all really needed it! Today we enjoyed a leisurely morning while the kids and I made some loaves of sandwich bread and some banana bread together. It is becoming more enjoyable now that they are getting a little older. DS (6)  helps me read and get all the ingredients, and DD (2 1/2) helps me pour and mix everything.

I finally joined one of the local homeschooling groups here. Of course, it is summer and most people are vacationing or whatnot, but once the "school year" starts I will very much be looking forward to get togethers and park days and such. The lady I talked to mentioned some coop stuff, but that just hasn't appealed to me. Then again, we are really blessed in the sense that whatever subjects I am not very good with, my husband is and vise versa.

PWOC (Protestant Women of the Chapel) has just started up again also. I used to go to MOPS and the bible studies through my church before we moved. I heard about PWOC as we were moving. I like it. It is a lot like the other groups, but I don't have to pay for it. Big plus. Not that any of the former was all that drastically expensive. We have just spent too much money lately, and we need to get back onto our plan.

Oh what a cutie!! Isn't it funny how they think at that age that nobody will know if they aren't caught red handed? LOL

Have a great day!

That was funny. We have a 4y/o and she does the same thing. I'll find little clues here and there of what she's gotten into.

God bless!
