Scrapbook Day September 2015

Scrapbook day fell on a Tuesday this month. Normally on Tuesdays I have a babysitter and this month was no different. I did school with Miss M in the morning and then met a friend for lunch in Ginza at Eggs n Things. It was a nice little break from the normal routine. We picked the K Man up from youchien and played at the mall next door to our building for nearly three hours with some of his friends from school. It was a beautiful day and we enjoyed being outside in the fresh air. Normally on Tuesdays Miss M and I go to BSF, but this night daddy could not get home in time so we stayed home. When we do go, it is a very late night for her as we do not get home until about 10/10:15. She was very sad we could not go as she was looking forward to it. It is a bit different for her this year as she is in the school age program and has "homework" questions to do each week just like I do. But it is fun trying to study the Bible together with her. The kids are doing well...J Man is growing and eating more solids. He has had pear, carrots, pumpkin, apple, banana, avocado and sweet potato. He still though does not have any teeth. The K Man is still in youchien. They are practicing for their undokai (sports day) in October and he loves to race kids. For being as big as he is, he is really fast and just plows past people. We joke that he runs like an offensive lineman. Miss M is doing well in school. I switched math programs and am using Saxon math. I am really liking it better than I thought I would. It is so thorough and is really good for Miss M. She is a great reader too and is enjoying reading.

Enjoy some recent photos of the kiddos. I included a homeschool design Miss M made with pattern blocks last week.
