  1. Hi~ My boys use Bible.is for their bible reading, you can listen and follow along but they lose their spots. Does anyone know of a bible app that highlights as it is reading to help keep their spot. Is there any app that highlights while it reads? Thanks!! Sheri
  2. I will have 7 in school next year and 2 littles. What helped this year was to make a daily spreadsheet with every subject for every kid on it. I even have reading and crafts with my littles on it. Each kid has assigned chores on their spreadsheet and I have open spaces for additional chores that I want done that day. I started giving tickets this year to the younger ones and it has really helped. They are flying through their stuff. I had always had individual planners for each kid but this is easier to look at one sheet and see where everyone os for the day. We have piano and exercise on there too. Sheri
  3. My kids really liked Visualize ASL We only have Vol 1, not the other 2 http://visualizeasl.com/
  4. We just completed out homestudy and in our experierence it was NOT traumatizing to our kids. She was here for a few hours and talked to each one of my kids asked them a few questions how they felt about the adoption and how our family worked. THey may have been a little traumatized about my cleaning frenzy before she came, but the homestudy was gentle and family friendly. I will admit I was trying to coach my kids a little before she came, I was trying to get ds 3 to tell her his name when asked. He kept saying he was going to tell her his name was BUTT. Thankfully when she asked he got this huge grin on his face and told her his real name. Honestly I was worried because we have a large family and we homeschool but she was willing to work with us and our baby girl should be ours by christmas. Sheri
  5. Hi~ I am so sorry you are going through this. No one can possibly know what it is like until you have been there. I have had it every time. My dds preschool teacher even called because she was concerned about my dd putting babies under her shirt and going into the bathroom and "coughing into the potty" Try the home health care route and have in home IV therapy. The IVs were the main thing that worked for me. I never had them at home, but I actually looked forward to being in the hospital because it was the only relief that I ever felt. Not to discourage you but mine lasted the whole time. I puked in labor and with one baby it lasted a week or so afterward. The Dr said that was because of all the hormones still in my body. Sheri
  6. You can have an unlimited number of devices registered to your Itunes account and share all apps. We have 4 ipods and 2 ipads. Sounds like alot but I have 9 kids. Sheri
  7. I believe athletics are called track and field in the US
  8. We have also been watching on the BBC on a proxy server. We have been talking about how different it is done there. There are no athlete stories so it is all sports. There are also a ton of sports we had no idea are in the olympics. We are currently watching Kayaking. Sheri
  9. The Reflex by Duran Duran White Snake Here I Go Again Bruce Springsteen Dancing in the Dark Ahhh.. the good old days
  10. I love my IPAD. I have a 32 gb which is plenty of memory and WIFI only. There is WIFI at most places, a friend is getting the 3g one to use it in the car. WHen thinking about what to get I looked at apps and my music and photos to see how much memory I would need and where I would be using it, mostly at home and places like church who have free wifi.

  11. We usually get ours at Lands End. I saw them at Costco last time I was there too.
  12. I went to the goodwill on the 1.49 day and bought the biggest picture frame that I could fine. I painted the frame black to match our dining room decor. I took out the picture covered it with fabric and then put it back under the glass. We just write in the glass. It matches and looks nice. I know that I am not explaining it well so here is a picture of one someone else made . http://www.makeit-loveit.com/2009/03/picture-frame-dry-erase-board.html Sheri
  13. Yes, I have copied PDF filed from my computer onto my IPAD and now they are on both. Sheri
