I'm 12 weeks pregnant tomorrow! It was almost like it shouldn't have happened. I got my IUD out April 13, got my monthly visitor the next friday which was the twentieth. May I was feeling kinda out of it and the month came and went. I took a test and sure enough it was positive. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm still over weight. I am sick from 12 am to 3/4am but I'm happy.....thanks for all the encouragement ladies! I will try to keep you updated.:001_smile:

I swear this board is clairvoyant....I just started reading this book (for the second time) and I was thinking about the prospect of journaling and finding a buddy.....and i almost gave up again before I even started!

:DThank you so much for sharing this!

Just like the previous poster said, you have to put one foot in front of the other. If you need to make a plan at night of the things you want to accomplish the next day and let it only be a few things not too much to over whelm you. Make sure you do your priority stuff and then add one extra thing like gathering the laundry all in one place, the next day you can seperate that laundry, the next day you can start doing the laundry and keep going day after day until it is done and then move on to the next task. I know exactally what your going through. I'm kinda in the same boat but I have started and the process is slow but it's going and getting faster everyday! Major :grouphug:'s and prayer and happy thoughts coming your way from me.

Maybe soon will be my time. Hope it works out for both of us! :D
Er, sorry for the ramble on your thread lol.
No need to apologize, I love ramblings! I hope it works out for us too!
Maybe there is something in the air?Last night I had a dream that dh and I travelled to China and adopted -- now let me tell you, with me being 57 y/o, that is SO not going to happen.
Ohhhhh adoption! I never thought of that!
I'd like another baby, too-but given that DD is 7, I'm turning 40, and it hasn't happened yet, I'm not feeling very positive.You nevr know, it could still happen!
Well I'd love another baby too, so add me to the list.Alas, there's no earthly way that'll happen. :(
No sad faces!! I didn't want to make people sad!
Aww I think it's sweet!! I thought my dh was done too as he's 41. BUT I said something the other day to him and his comment was "if that's what you want honey." I about fell onto the floor. Of course I joked it off and said I was only kidding.
I know having another isn't something that is plausable right now for us, but I KNOW how you feel!:grouphug:
I think that my husband would be eighty and say what ever you want hunny!
Yep :(No sad faces, please!

I do think thats pregnancy is in the water! My husband would welcome as many kids as I would be willing to pop out.....but the problem is at this current moment I have an IUD and I'm fat and and and, so many excuses. But I guess I better get a move on! You ladies are awesome! I knew I could share this with you all!

I wanna have a baby!...........That is all!
That really isn't all because I need to explain yall some things!
If you knew me in real life, you'd know that I'm the most miserable insufferable evil pregnant person! You'd also know that I really didn't want more than one child and after the birth of my second child I was really sure that I would never want to have more kids! But now.........I do! But I really would rather not be fat while I do it and I would also not to be over thirty five and I'm thirty one so, I better get a move on!:tongue_smilie:
Now, that is all!!!!

If I did maybe my house wouldn't be so dang messy! Maybe some of you mad cleaners can come to my house when your mad! Fell free to PM me and I'll give you my address!!
As of child birth I have been eating my feeling away! Before child birth I would walk, or run, or dance or make something....there's nothing like the sound of ripping fabric.:001_smile:

We are using OPGTR and started with Kumon Tracing books. We do rightstart math level a when we can get to it. I really would like to do more with her! Give me some ideas. i know that when we start science history, music and art she will tag along but she wants more. Oh we also do a morning board that includes months, days of the week, reading the calender, counting the days in school ect, but she still wants more. I also need things she can do on her own while I work with her sister! What do you do with your four year old?:bigear:

I just started using FIAR a few weeks ago. I am a new hs mom this year and we are just starting our 5th book - and LOVE IT. I started our first book, Storm in the Night 2 days before I planned because an awesome thunderstorm hit in the afternoon on a Saturday. I took my kids to the library that day and read them the book (before the storm hit). Then when it hit, I grabbed other books that I rented on thunderstorms, lightning, clouds, etc and read the girls these books on the covered porch with a blanket. My older dd, who loves to read, jumped on the Usborne quick links after reading a page in the Science Encylopedia on storms - she went at it for 2 more hours! We did a great art project with cotton for the different types of clouds, etc. Then I had some Bill Nye the science guy videos related to storms, etc. All in all, it has been great. When I noticed an air show was coming to town, I quickly changed the order and read The Glorious Flight. Now what ps would do field trips like that? We are going to start Madeline tomorrow. I have some Madeline dvd's for the fun part of school (recess), many more Madeline books to read, some crafts etc. I may not have answered all your ?'s, but hopefully this helps. :)
Great great stuff!This is really helpful! I like that you can move things
around to fit the happenings of real life events!!!! What do you do about math? How old are your kids?
-
Oooh, I like your questions! I'm subscribing to this thread b/c I'm curious for my soon to be 3yr old. What age is BFIAR for?
You can subscribe to a thread????? I didn't know that! How does one do that?
:bigear: I know I probably sound really silly but I'm serious, I really don't know how!

Here is the link to the thread I started!

Do you follow it as printed?
Do you use it alone or in conjunction with another program?
How old are the children you use it with.
Is it good at incorporating math or do you add that in?
How does a typical school day look with FIAR for you?
Got a blog that documents your use of FIAR or a blog/website you use for inspiration?
I have a BFIAR and FIAR vol 1 and I was thinking about using it but not sure where to start so any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!:001_smile:

I was just thinking of asking a similar question. Also along the lines of how it's done in their respective homes! Maybe I will do that instead of hijacking your thread! Sorry!

Could it be me?
I feel so weird even suggesting it could be me, but....morning schedule boards fits my post this morning.
I have 7 kids though...but only 3 are using the picture schedules. Hmmmm
Link in signature.
Pamela,
Your picture schedule is so amazing! I am so glad that you posted your response! Thank You Thank you! Are you adopting 5 kids! Oh my goodness, oh my goodness so great! I'm going to subscribe to your blog! I'm so glad that you overlooked the weirdness and posted!:D

None of the above but all super helpful! Spot on with the help! Thanks:D

Who has a blog, she has three children and she posted about morning/ boards. It was really awesome and I wanted to use some of her ideas! I just can't remember who you are. I know I should have just followed your blog in the first place but.....I just figued out how to do that with google reader and anyway, who are you? Wait it's possible that I might be combining you with several people......lol! Thanks!:tongue_smilie:

Once again I do not really need to explain my personal convictions on this. As I said earlier Bippity Boppity Boo is not exactly witch craft, and the other so called witches in Disney cartoons are all villains and not promoted in any way. I take any movie I let my kids watch case by case. If I watch it(or preview) and I feel a conviction about it we simply do not watch again. I do not take issue with a bit of fantasy. Also it is not as if we are watching Disney movies every day in fact I can't remember the last day we did.;) Quite honestly I didn't even watch the entire Princess and the Frog, I simply just did not like it.
This response is usually why I don't comment. I understand that your response is coming after you have responded to other people about your "personal convictions" but I never asked you to explain them. Though, in reality you did explain them. I'm am allowed to have an opinion. You don't have to like the movie, never said you did. I just think it's an odd type of argument to allow "a bit of fantasy" and allow witch craft, fairies, and magic mirrors, but say that because the movie included voodoo it was bad. As for the voodoo being promoted? Wasn't the villain the one doing the bad magic? Ahhhh I guess your referring to Mama Odie, I can make the same comparison to all of the other movies....none of the other princess movies use a different magic from that which was used to cause all the harm in the first place.....Good witch against bad witch, Magic against magic. But Like I said feel free to have your opinion! We Loved the movie! Love the music! You will get no further comment on the matter from me!

The only one I do not care for is the Frog Princess one but that is because of the weird voodoo stuff.
But magic mirrors and fairy god mothers, and witches that cast evil spells are ok?
Sorry for the Hijack, but really?
My girly like girly stuff and like princess stuff, but also like to be rough and tumble and play in dirt. I think banning disney princess things can back fire unless you disallow all thing princess(non disney) too. My girls can find princess in everything and anything. I don't but Disney stuff because it's expensive...no other reason. Movies, we buy, merchandise we don't. Besides they think it's more fun to make their own princess costume!

I never even thought about a doctor kicking us out because of vaccines! My child has food allergies and I told the doctor that I would like to delay some and she was fine with it. I hope we don't have the same doctors!

Wow Ladies! Usually my threads get very few answers. I'm asking because I need to simplify. I'm in school and I really wanna finish! I also don't wanna short change my children. I'm thinking that there are some programs that can give my kids what they need without my trying to reinvent the wheel, which I have no time to do. So...It seems like most of the suggestions are duplicates.

Looks like I have lots of research to do.......thanks for all your help! I'm still taking suggestions so keep on giving them!:001_smile:

Curriculum what would it be and why? I know many would just say they wouldn't but please go with me here. I know that some tweaking might be necessary. What would you buy, why and if you had to how would you tweak? For second grade? For pre-k?
Something FREE like EasyPeasy Homeschool but....
in K-8 Curriculum Board

A little more rigorous? That's has less screen time but still has some. I was hoping I could find something already pulled together. I really don't have the time as I'm trying to recover from a really bad fracture and surgery. We had a plan for this year but it has to be put on hold. Any suggestions?
Also has anyone dealt with this kind of thing? How do you keep schooling while laid up with an illness, injury or bed rest and what not?
