Beds!!!
Yes, poor Squeaker has been sleeping in a pack n play forever! We finally got her a crib from Aunt Dione in Utah! And Uncle Randy's piano movers were delivering a piano to Idaho and brought the crib along for us! I am in love since I ordered brand new crib bedding for Squeaker when I was in the hospital! One of the kind nurses even went and bought it for me since it was the last one left! How kind was that!! I think I may be more excited for the new bed than Squeaker!
And when we moved into our new home in December, the previous owners left this awesome flag that use to hang on the shed, but they had taken it down, but didn't take it with them! Score for us and Brandon's awesome idea- we made H a new bed one evening while he was out skiing with school friends! Lil'G posed for a pic for us!
H enjoying his new sleep!

Homeschool with Idaho Virtual Academy (K12)
Our Lil'G was really struggling with school. He was in 1st grade, teacher was ok, not my fave and Lil'G would not go to school! He was throwing fits and crying and just flat out wasn't handling things. So we talked to the school to see if they would put him back to Kindergarten since he wasn't coping. Well, that wasn't going to happen so, we pulled him out in November. But the home school program we used didn't start till January! We made it a few months of me just teaching things on a whim and also moved to our new house during this time as well. We have learned alot together in this journey and have both liked it! It really is hard to home school I will say, even as much as I liked it, had to put on a different hat, not the mom hat, but teacher hat and have your child listen. Also having Squeaker around watching TV and needing things. Lil'G really enjoyed it. The program K12 was great! I was known as the "learning coach". Lil'G had an actual teacher, whose name happened to be Mrs Bailee too! We mostly just talked on the phone to her. They send you everything you need to teach and give you lessons on the computer! Proud of Lil'G and all the work he put into learning! It's back to a normal school for the new school year!
