Prayers please!
Love HSing replied to dirty ethel rackham's topic in General Education Discussion Board
:grouphug: Praying -
She's applied to 7 other schools. Northern & Arizona University are her top choices, and now she knows she can go to one of them. She's thrilled and I'm thrilled for her :D

Down to 3 names.. (for a girl)
Love HSing replied to Love HSing's topic in General Education Discussion Board
I'm pretty sure if it's a girl she'll be Molly, unless we find a name we like better :001_smile: I love Ella too, but I think it's to close to dsd13's name (Elizabeth). Madison was one dh really liked, I like it too but I know 4 girls with the name. -
I've tried and tried! It never works. :glare: Everyone always gives us the hand me downs, the kids get clothes for gifts, the older ones have their own money to buy clothes too. It got so bad I made dd14 go through her clothes recently and get rid of some (3 boxes worth) now she's has 29 shirts, 10 hoodies/sweaters, 16 pairs of jeans, 5 pairs of jean shorts, 7 pairs of sports shorts, 7 jerseys, 3 work shirts, 3 skirts, 8 dresses & 15 pairs of shoes. She's bought most of it with her own money or we're given to her. It is insane!

Sorry I was doing a poll and got distracted. :) -
Grace will be the middle name for all of them. We can't decide and I'm curious what others think :)

:grouphug: No advice but I'll pray. :grouphug:

What about Delia's? We don't have a store in our area but dd14 gets the majority of her jeans from their online store.

Baby name suggestions?
Love HSing replied to Love HSing's topic in General Education Discussion Board
Love the name Lucas :) Thanks :001_smile: Mackenzie is so popular around here! dd8 has 3 friends with the name. I do like it though. Love it :) Thanks everybody I'm hoping I have enough names on the list now that we can find one that everybody likes. :) -
Baby name suggestions?
Love HSing replied to Love HSing's topic in General Education Discussion Board
:001_huh: ? I don't like nicknames very much, my mom started calling them by their nicknames when they we're babies then it stuck. The only one we planned is to call Lucille Lucy, we would've just named her Lucy but we named her after my Grandma. It is, Thanks :001_smile: -
Baby name suggestions?
Love HSing replied to Love HSing's topic in General Education Discussion Board
It's cute, but the name Anna is really popular around here. Thanks though. Thanks! That's cute too, dh said he doesn't like it though. :glare: -
Baby name suggestions?
Love HSing replied to Love HSing's topic in General Education Discussion Board
I lean more towards Old Fashioned names, but there are other types of names I like a lot too. My biological kids are Natalie, Richard (Ricky), Darren, Alexandra (Lexie), Caroline and Lucille (Lucy) and my step kids names are David, Stephanie, Elizabeth and Andrew. We're trying to stay away from names with that start with the same letter as the other dc. I'm hoping if I have a long enough list we'll be able to find a name everyone likes! :bigear: ETA: Thanks for the website suggestion it looks good, I'm going to see if our bookstore has the actual book to buy :) -

Are you schooling this week?
Love HSing replied to Mommy22alyns's topic in General Education Discussion Board
My plan was to only do the 3R's, but everyone wanted to do MFW ECC too so we're doing the weeks worth of work in 3 days and taking off Thursday & Friday. :) -
:grouphug: Maybe you need to outsource? Then she'll have to answer to someone else for assignments and such. Then you just give her the grade she gets. If you can't do that when she doesn't do the work, mark it as incomplete. I understand why you don't want her to get a low grade but she needs to take school work more seriously. You could also go a different direction and try to make things more fun, and lighten up the formal work. Highschool can still be fun! :) Kind of curious- What curricula are you using?

When do you put up your Christmas tree?
Love HSing replied to Cinder's topic in General Education Discussion Board
The day after Thanksgiving :) -
I love it! The kids love it too! :D dd14 has been participating in it even though I'm not requiring her too! Even ds10 enjoys it and he normally complains about everything! I planned to just use ECC, but I think we may use CTG next year! I'm glad dh told me to buy this instead of making my own geography! :)

We're waiting to find out the gender of the baby, so I need boys & girls names. We we're set on the name Brendan for a boy, but my MIL hates the name. :glare: No ideas for a girl! Dh doesn't seem to like anything I like! Thanks! :bigear:

What time do you eat your Thanksgiving meal?
Love HSing replied to Quiver0f10's topic in General Education Discussion Board
3:30ish, If anyone's hungry later they snack on leftovers. -
How many nieces and nephews?
Love HSing replied to twoxcell's topic in General Education Discussion Board
39. That's not counting our great nieces & nephews though. I'm the youngest of 8. Dh has 4 siblings, 3 half siblings & 2 step siblings. We don't buy Christmas presents for them all, only the one's that come to our Christmas Eve party. -
What kind of flooring do you have through your home?
Love HSing replied to lynn's topic in General Education Discussion Board
The living room, dining room, Master bedroom all have hardwood. The kitchen has old tile that I hate. We're replacing it before Christmas but we haven't decided what, I'm thinking laminate or hardwood. The bathroom on the main floor has new tile, so does the Master bathroom. The basement that we recently finished has carpet, except for the Laundry room & Bathroom which have tile. Upstairs is hardwood, except for the bathroom with tile. I was thinking about changing it to carpet though. -
All kids are different. My dd6 (And dd 8 & 2) go to sleep at 9pm and wake up at 7am on their own, so about 10 hours of sleep. But dd2 also takes 2 hours naps in the afternoon When ds10 was 6 he would need at 11 hours of sleep or he'd be a crab. He wouldn't fall asleep until 10-11pm even if he laid in bed for hours he didn't want to go to sleep until everyone was asleep too, so the next morning he would sleep in until 10am when I woke him. So I think it varies. ETA: When dd14 goes to ps on December 5th I'm worried she won't get enough sleep- she'll have to wake up by 5am to get on the bus at 6am, she won't get home until 3:30pm and that's when she has nothing going on after school. (Which I'm assuming will be rare) So chances are she won't be home until 6ish then dinner, and then homework/studying which will probably keep her up until 10pm, Then she needs some time to relax so she won't be asleep until 11pm. That's 6 hours of sleep, and she's use to 9-10.. It will be interesting! :glare:
