Jamin starts Pre-K

By
It's crazy to see this post now a month later because already Jamin has made so many amazing improvements! We started homeschooling Jamin in preschool at the beginning of September. He really enjoys learning! He excels in letter and number recognition and struggles with patterns and colors. Both the boys love getting their work boxes out every morning and seeing what surprises are inside each box. Every day they ask me 'when are we going to do school again?'. I made a 'tot school' workbox system for Landin so that he could start to be introduced and exposed to things but he won't be starting pre-school until next year. We plan on having Jamin do two years of pre school because we felt he needed extra time and it was also more for me to learn his learning style and get myself organized. We have been enjoying the curriculum so far. Jamin learns a letter, color, number, Bible verse and sight word each week. All of the activities, games and crafts are centered around the Bible verse and story that goes with it. We are about to finish up our fifth week of school and Jamin has really surprised me with his scripture memorization. Not to mention LANDIN!!! He has memorized all of the verses too just by wanting to do everything Big Brother is doing and listening in! I have really loved all the time we continue to have together with homeschooling. It has been such a blessing that I can stay home with my children and learn and grow with them!

Starting out with Calendar time!


This is the pose Jamin wanted to do for his first day of school picture lol 

Working on some fine motor skills with a little q-tip painting




concentrating very hard!

Landin joining in and painting the big L and little l








This is our school board. We go over this every morning along with calendar time and the story that goes along with the verse

Last year when Jamin and I would do crafts or projects, he loved having them up on a board so that he could show daddy when he got home. I put up these boards to some of his work from the week so that he can show daddy!

Landin's boards!
One of the best parts of homeschool- eating a snack while sitting on the floor and doing school lol

Some more fine motor practice!

Sun is out...Time to have fun!

I set up a part of our big slip and slide for the boys to have fun with! Mommy, may have went down it a time or two also lol. You can definitely tell a difference in our house when there is warm weather outside! Lots more silliness and fun!  Silliness during lunch...Dylin put this bucket on his head and thought it was the funniest thing ever.  Some pictures of my handsome man....I love you so much Jamin!

Road Trip Part 5

By
Monday morning rolled around and we decided to make our way from Bozeman down to the West Yellowstone Entrance. The drive was amazingly gorgeous!  Just driving in Harvey!  We made it to West Yellowstone but were turned away from two different RV parks because of the amount of kids we had with us. This was the first time I have ever felt looked down upon and discriminated against. I literally had one man ripped a piece of paper out of my hands because he didn't even want to consider letting that many people stay in his park. I explained to him that they are all young and well behaved kids but apparently he has had way too many bad experiences with kids. We didn't let it get us down though. We finally found one that didn't have any concerns letting 4 adults come in with 5 kiddos. The place was actually brand new and the closest RV park to the west Yellowstone entrance so we really lucked out!!! After we got checked in we decided to go into the park ...
