Last week we ordered 1st grade curriculum for Princess G. Today was only the first day using the books, but I feel really good about it. It was really easy for me to teach Princess G the lessons. I was so excited, I felt like she was being challenged and having fun. I can't ask for anything more. Enjoy the pictures from our classroom. We set up our classroom as close to a school classroom as possible. We didn't want Princess G to feel like she is missing anything. It is fun to go in there and see the girls get so excited to learn. We were really blessed to get desk, chairs, and a table for a surplus yard. The girls love having their own desks. Ok so enough about school for now.
As for the rest of the family, Little Man is doing really well in school. He was very excited to have met the UNM Lobo's football and basketball teams, and the cheerleaders. Little Man said he really liked the cheerleaders. Alan asked him if the cheerleaders were as cute as Mommy? Little Man said "Dad you should have seen this one cheerleader, she was REALLY cute". You have to just laugh.
Sunshine has been so busy. She is having to adjust to not having Mommy all to herself all day. It is not going as well as I would like. I am sure it will get better. I just hope it is sooner then later. I am finding little ways to keep her busy and happy. We tried doing the no nap thing, after a week I decided there is no way that is going to work. I am happy to say we are happy nap takers again. She stays up a half hour later at night, but it is so worth it.
Last week we also got to babysit My best friend Anya's baby girl. She is such a sweet baby. Sunshine is a little unsure about having a baby around. Due to some crazy things last week we had "Sweet Pea"(if I don't put my own kids names on here I had to rename her baby too)3 days. It is amazing how much you forget about little babies. Well it is all coming back.
Well not too much else going on. We are enjoying balloon fiesta this week. Hundreds of balloons in the sky at the same time, it is really beautiful. We are also looking forward to having Alan's Mom and Dad in town this week. Alan and the kids have Friday off, so we are looking forward to lots of fun activities with them. I am sure we will have lots of fun photos to add very soon :)

Way to go Liz! It looks like you are doing awesome! Princess G couldn't ask for a better mom. Enjoy your company this weekend- and who knows- maybe someday we'll make it there too. Wouldn't that be amazing?
That's fantastic that you set it up like a classroom and that she's doing so well! Good luck with it all! (A class of one sounds so nice right about now!!! =))
