New to blogging

Wow. I have found yet another thing to consume my time. I really enjoy reading other friend's blogs, but now that I am working on my own, I realize how much time I could spend on this. I am just not sure exactly what I am doing so it is taking me a long time. Anyone who knows how to load the songs onto the blog please call me.....I cannot figure it out! I am sure it is something so simple but I spend about 3 hours on it Sunday afternoon.

I am excited about getting to journal our lives. I can never seem to have the time to sit and write on a piece of paper, but the computer and I have some attraction! So between facebook and blogging and an occasional game of webkins...he he hee, you can normally find me here.

Well, we are into week 4 of school and all is well. It is going a little more smooth than the first week. I think my hormones are finally calming down a little bit too, and this helps.

EB is doing well, now that we got who is in charge straight. The first week of school with her made me want to put her in public school, then I had to remember exactly why I am doing this and it puts me back in my place. Thanks Kristy for teaching that it is so important to KNOW YOUR WHY you homeschool! You saved me! I think also we have changed her diet due to her recent diagnosis of Celiac's. She cannot have any wheat, oats, barley, etc... anything with gluten. At first, I was extremely overwhelmed, but now it is getting slightly better. I am just so thankful that she actually thinks all this gluten free stuff tastes great! She had gluten free chocolate donuts for breakfast this morning. She loved them! They are no krispy kreme, but she didn't care. I thank the Lord for that! I am so thankful that she doesn't like bread to begin with! Anyways, since she has been on this gluten free diet, for about 2 weeks now, she seems to be doing better with school. She can stay focused a little better. She doesn't get as distracted. I still have to stay on her some, but not near as bad.

LG is doing wonderful. We are enjoying her so much! She is precious! She is a very happy baby. She has just started smiling at us a lot more now. She is a great eater. She has gained 3 lbs in 5 weeks. She will be 6 weeks old this Thurs. She slept for the longest time yet last night. She slept from 11 until 7 this morning. She woke at 3:45 as she has everynight for the past 2 weeks or so but I just gave her the passy and rocked her crib and we both fell back to sleep. I was scared to do it this way, because you can spend 30 minutes or so doing this and then still have to end up feeding and it taking over an hour. I would love to break the habit of her waking in the middle of the night. She definately weighs enough to be sleeping through the night!!

Thanks for reading my long post today. I won't be so long winded next time:).
