    I ordered earlier this month and I think I'm all set for K. The only things I'll need to buy in July/August will be basic supplies and art supplies. I'm waiting for BTS sales and to see how much our supplies are depleted by then.

    I am planning to use the Intellego Unit Studies K-2 civics bundle. It includes unit studies in American Government and Citizenship, Leaders in America, and Symbols of America. I purchased it here from Currclick: http://www.currclick.com/product/33990/K-2-Civics-%5BBUNDLE%5D?manufacturers_id=264&it=1

    My DD5 just lost her first tooth last week. I posed the same question on my Facebook wall and the answers varied from 50 cents to $5, but the general consensus was $1.00, so that is what DD received.

    We have eaten them raw stuffed with chicken salad.

    Happy New Year! We just got back from our Lunar New Year party!

    I bought DD5 a case for her Leapster Explorer and DD3 a small card game. I also bought them each a DVD and of course there will be candy.

    DD5's favorite games currently are Rat-A-Tat-Cat, Sum Swamp, Hisss, and War. Edited to add: She also loves Kids of Carcassonne.

    When we do review, I just pick about 5-6 words from previous lessons (words I know that DD has struggled with), then we start with the new lesson. Often we split a lesson over two days.

    I just did a rough count and guess that I have somewhere around 80. I love Penzey's! From Reya's list I have whole cardamom, vanilla beans, candied ginger, and juniper berries, but not the other two.

    This is what I do with my DD5 for review, just a few words from the previous lesson and a few more from an earlier lesson that she needs to review.

    Tonight is leftovers, but last night I made Pioneer Woman's Baked Ziti: http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2012/11/baked-ziti/ It was yummy, but made too much for my 9x13 pan. I have leftover sauce that wouldn't fit on top. Next time I might make less sauce or make a 9x13 and an 8x8.

    It varies from year to year. This year we averaged about $160 per child, not including stocking stuffers.

    I'm contemplating buying this: http://www.amazon.co...d=IJNEBFIOBVYSL for my 5 yo DD. It comes with activity cards, beakers, test tubes, etc.

    I've been having this same problem for the last few days.

    I wear an apron every time I cook (not to heat up leftovers or make sandwiches for lunch). I have a few that I cycle through: one from Disney World, one from Bed Bath and Beyond, and my favorite from Vera Bradley.

    Freezer. No idea. And no, it wasn't one of the kids, it was DH.
