:bigear::bigear::bigear: I'm going through this with my 7 year old daughter!!! She just can't sleep. She typically falls asleep aroun 10:30-11 ish even though we put her to bed at 8. I'd love to hear all the advice as well!

The Last Dragon!!! Oh, yeah, it's a really bad one, Sho' nuff! Big trouble in Little China is pretty aweful too, but you've got to love it.

DH and I got about an hour into it last night. We finally turned it off because we were exhausted, but what we've seen we've liked. just a heads up, there is a sort of love scene in the beginning where the prince is hooking up with the french girl...alot of giggling and rolling around on the sheets. We'll finish watching it tonight.

I think evites are wonderful for a party or shower...but a fb invite to a wedding...I just can't get on board with that.

HA HA HA HA!!!!! I would crack up if you sent them some farmville crops to congratulate the happy couple!!!:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

This has always been my question. Why would Jesus pray to the Father if he IS the Father??? Like someone saying I'm a mom, wife, teacher but still the same person...when I'm in mom mode I don't talk to wife mode and ask her questions...does that make sense? My mind just can't comprehend it...

All of my kids rarely spit up. We never even bothered to put burp rags on our shoulders. DD is 4 weeks old and she's probably spit up twice and it was just a tiny, tiny bit each time. I babysat triplets when I was younger and the smallest one would projectile spit up! I've never seen anything so crazy!

I don't want to hijack this thread, but this is the first I've heard of logic. What is it and at what age do you teach it??

I went to high school in Korea and did the whole model/tv thing so I completely understand your poor daughters situation. The agents aren't very good at censoring their words, sadly. My sister was told in several stores that she'd walk in "Too fat, nothing here for you!" I feel for your little girl! No kid should be made to feel not beautiful...:angry:

I didn't realize what the songs were about, even though I knew all the words, until I started playing guitar hero. The songs are great, but then I started listening to the words...woah. Now I finally know what the song "Slow Ride" is all about...I'd just pictured a bunch of bikers driving around on a sunday drive!!! Yeah, I was wrong... I was a pretty wild teen, but I admit reading this thread has opened my eyes! I had NO IDEA...my sharona...the joker...celebrate my love...0_0

I've noticed on a few blogs that some people have set menus for what they eat for breakfast/lunch, such as Mondays=hotdogs, Always. I hate trying to figure out what to do for breakfast/lunch! My mind doesn't think past cereal and sandwiches. Do any of you have a set menu? If so, could you post it!

SOOOOO not enough. I go to bed around 11:30 ish. Night is the only time I have to hang out with DH and I have a hard time giving that up. I try to get up around 5 so I can have quite time in the house to clean/plan/prep. So about 5 1/2 hours...but then factor in that I have a 3 week old...ugh...night time nursing is cutting down on the little sleep I get.

This is what we've been using this year and we're super happy with it! and it's FREE!!!! worst case scenario, you try it, hate it, and you're not out any money.

I've seen that so much with the husbands acting like the biggest babies of all when it comes to meal times!!! The only thing I try to respect is that my husband is lactose intolerant (to a point...he can still do cheeses in most recipes). Other than that, I'm just like many of you. I make it, you eat it, no complaining allowed at the table or you get down and go to bed. I don't want my kids to ever go to someone elses house and not know how to handle being given food you're not used to or you might not like. We've been working on right when you take your first bite, you compliment the meal. (my mom is always on pins and needles waiting for feedback on her food!!) I'm lucky though, because so far my kids haven't been picky about much and aren't complainers. I throw all kinds of veggies in my spaghetti sauce to introduce them to new things. But we also have the old standbys that I know they love. I try to find a wide variety of foods to expose them to. I'm about to have a family of 8...NO WAY I could be a short order cook.

Hey! I'd like for my kids to get some educational online game time while I'm helping some of the other kids. I was wondering what sites you'd recommend. We've used starfall.com and hoodamath.com. Just curious to know what else you've found ages pre-4th. Thanks!!! Maybe we could start a running list!

I think we're almost to the point where we're ready to add art. A lot of the curriculum seem to be JUST about drawing or some other type of medium. Any suggestions for a well rounded art curriculum for the family to do together?

Besides a slight difference in ages, this is EXACTLY where I'm at!!!!:bigear::bigear::bigear::bigear:

So there seem to be a ton of great planners/trackers but very few seem to be supported by mac. Have you found anything that works for you in tracking multiple children on your mac??? I'm at a loss and I'd love to have it on my computer instead of just on paper. Thanks!

Wow! I'm overwhelmed at how helpful everyone is! THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH!!!

Ok, I'm an EXTREMELY new HSer...just started day 4. My question to you is, how often do you do each subject? Here's what we have in the works right now. Singapore math Handwriting W/O tears FLL Complete writer Sequential spelling SOTW Science typing Thanks for the help!

Just thought I'd revive this thread to find out if there are any new FL homeschoolers! I'm in Riverview and would LOVE to meet up with someone/a group/anything!!!

We live in Riverview and we're looking for homeschoolers as well! I have a 9yr DS, 7yr DD, 6yr DS, 4 yr DS, and 19 mo. DD...and due in 2 weeks, so I've got lots of age groups to choose from! Are there any other groups besides FISH?

Has anyone used this before? It looks great and it's a free download. I just have one question as this is my first year homeschooling...is it a chapter a day type of thing? http://www.eequalsmcq.com/homeschoolers.htm

Do you use them together or is one enough??? I ordered some curriculum I'm not happy with so I'm trying to scramble and order something else and I'm very curious about using these for language arts. What do you recommend?

I've been searching for the yahoo group with no luck. What's it called???
