  1. We do. We don't ask for that at registration. However we don't allow them board positions.
  2. Our goal is to get all kids in their rooms by 8. Then Ds12 can read until 9. Dds 6 and 9 can read until 8:30. How much time they get to read is determined by how quickly they get ready for bed.
  3. This is so fun! I can't wait to share it with my kids! Thanks for the link.
  4. My dd9 didn't get her first loose tooth until she was 8, Now my dd6 still hasn't lost any teeth. Their dentist says not to worry. Just think that the longer it takes for their adult teeth to come in the longer they have for their adult teeth to get cavities, ect. Don't worry.
  5. Just completed my 9th Walk Away the Pounds. Plus I went bike riding Sat. and Sunday with my family. :D I hate that your subconscious tries to talk you out of working out.
  6. Ok, my Dh bought me a mountain bike on Friday with some of his bonus money. Woo Hoo! Now I am not the only one in the family who doesn't have a bike. That means I can go riding with the kids. I have had the desire to become more active for various reasons. So on Sat. morning I went on an hour and half bike ride and today about the same. Ohhh! My bum is sore.:D
  7. Isn't that funny. My kids drag themselves out of bed on the weekdays, especially when they know it's a school day. But when there is something fun happening, or someone is coming over. Pop, they get right up. Enjoy the puppy!
  8. Please at least check out. www.fchm.org They have a turn key system to help you start a co-op. They have been around for about 8yrs now so they know what they are doing. I have been involved in their first co-op since the beginning. I can't recommend them enough.
  9. I have a friend who just bought a Sprinter. It seats 10 I think. She wanted it for the high backs for safety.
  10. Ok. So I was having a kind of down day. Today is the first and rent is due. I hate this time of the month. I get very anxious. So I balance the check book, see that DH filled his tank, $65. Pay on a credit card, and write out the check for rent. We end up with a balance of 16.75. And I have no gas in my car, and not many staples in the house either. So I am like ok, Lord, you told me to be anxious for nothing. So I will trust you to provide. Fast forward to this afternoon. My Dh calls and says, could you get a sitter for tonight. Yeah right, says I. I told him how much was in our account earlier. :glare: Come to find out, he got a quarterly bonus today! Don't know how much. But isn't God so good!:D
  11. It is an aerobic walking workout, with some light weights.
  12. Oh, thank the Lord! I know how that feels to lose a child. I have stories.;)
  13. Just completed 8th WATP one mile workout. Yesterday my youngest dd6 burst in tears because I didn't wake her up to work out with me. So today I woke her up at 6:45 and she came and worked out with me. He older sister also woke early and joined us. Afterwards they both were like "that was short". Whatever! Hey today I made it through all the sections. I will add the weights next week. Soon I will move to the two mile!:D
  14. Nope didn't give in. She had to wait until the older two were finished. My 12yo just bought the new Indiana Jones/Lego Game and I knew she wouldn't to play long anyway.
  15. Ok so this is our last week of school before the break, so the older two are basically getting to a logical stopping point in their school work. So my older son 12 is taking a test for math and my middle dd is writing her spelling words and my youngest dd6 aka(the Drama Queen) is not having fun because, "there's nothing to do" so asks "can I play brothers PS2?" Of course the mean mommy says no and the tears start to fall.:svengo: I say "Crying because you don't get to do what you want is not ok. So stop crying" and she says "I can't my eyes are too wet":lol: Oh, my! Too funny!
  16. We do the 3 at a time plan. It's nice because we can get one for Dh, me, and the kids.:lurk5:
  17. This is my second week working out. Sixth day. I am doing the one mile Walk Away the Pounds. Since I am so out of shape and overweight it is the most I can do, but I am making all the way through! Today my DS12 got up early and so I told him if you get up with me you work out with me! My goal right now is to just get my body healthier by working out 5 days a week and walking(about 15 min. one way) to the park on Saturdays. So far so good.
  18. Dd 9 loves to draw, craft, read, make up stories and write them down, play with her American Girl dolls, dress up, dance around the house, jump rope, hula hoop. She's a diverse person.
  19. until the second week of September.:001_smile: And I have a family who adores me. And a Savior who died for me.
  20. Never voluntarily bath(with soap and shampoo) or change their clothe with out threat. Ugh. My son has not actually washed his hair in a week. Blech!:ack2: So under threat that "mommy will come help you" I have sent him do do his job.:gnorsi:
