[Wordless Wednesday- May 30, 2012]

My youngest lost her first tooth. Link is in my signature.

[Pot luck breakfast "side dish"? Help?]

I would make a quiche. You could also do hot curried fruit if you have canned fruit.

[Read the New Testament in 100 Days-reading plan]

Thanks for posting this. I'm in.

[Free Kindle book today: US-Germany WWII]

Thank you.

[Anybody else watch Duck Dynasty?]

We love it! The best one was when they went frog hunting in the golf course pond. My oldest laughed so hard no sound came out.

[:) Math problem]

My kids said, "Who's Jack?"

[How long is too long to expect him to sit]

Twenty minutes is great at that age. My son is eight and he's just getting to 15-20 minutes. I allow quiet activities like clay and coloring to tame the wiggles.

[A clean house makes me SO happy!!!]

I'm with you. I love it when the house is neat and clean. I just wish the rest of my family felt the same way.

[S/O: Tipping]

Yes, I make up the difference. Depending on the contellation of the party, I may or may not say anything.

:iagree:

[Has anyone had something like this happen?]

My dh went over a speed bump and the back glass of his pickup shattered. It was a big mess.

[I hate my dishwasher - recommendations please]

We currently have a GE which is a piece of junk. It has never worked well. I don't use it anymore. We got it when the 20 something year old Maytag developed an unfixable leak. It worked like a champ.

[Hufflepuff, here]

I guess I have to wait. I logged back in and it says I will get another email when I can "explore Pottermore." Bummer.

[Hufflepuff, here]

When do you get sorted? I have a name and have clicked the link and signed in but dont't see a place to be sorted. Does that happen at some other time? Will I get an email for it? My name is: Riverstone36292.

 

I'm stuck here too. SkyThorn6585

[What are you doing for grade 2 reading?]

We don't use a specific reading curriculum. I just choose books to go along with whatever we are studying in history or science.

[Hello Dance moms......bun help please.]

:iagree: Hair nets are wonderful things.

[A cool timeline I found]

Thank you!

[Anything else like Mind Benders?]

We have only used Grid Perplexors. I think the main difference is the format, grid vs. list, but I could be wrong.

[Anything else like Mind Benders?]

Grid Perplexors are cheaper per puzzle. If he is advanced enough he could go to PuzzlersParadise for free logic puzzles. They are tricky.

[Singapore Math]

I use US version because that was what was available when I purchased them.

:iagree: I haven't seen anything that would make me switch for my younger children.

[What to use after Rod and Staff English 7? (Or, when are we done with grammar?)]

I am debating the same question. We are burned out on R&S. I'm thinking of focusing on writing for 8th and not doing formal grammar.

[brang, brung, and tooken]

I think it's because their father uses "tooken". Dh takes offense to having his grammar corrected by me. Now my budding grammar snob dd12 is taking on the job.

[The Scale of the Universe 2]

Thanks for sharing.

Here is my post. We haven't had so much as a prediction of snow this year.

[Looking for a soft dress-up doll...]

My youngest dd loves her Madeline doll. They come in several sizes.

[PSA for all dh's!!]

I thought my dh was the only one who did this.

 

I was out Christmas shopping and he stayed home with the kids. When I got home the kitchen was clean. I was beyond happy. I kept going on and on about how wonderful he was and how nice it was to come home to no dishes in the sink. He was also thanked privately.;)

 

The next morning I needed a pot to cook breakfast and couldn't find one. There were no pots or pans in the kitchen. I tracked them down to a large plastic storage bin outside the back door. I was not amused.:glare:
