not much happening here

Unfortunately, I don't have much to blog about because we haven't been getting much done! I have been very sick with pregnancy related issues and school has taken somewhat of a back burner. I'd like to think that it's a month or so of an unschooling phase because even without formal teaching, my kids never stop learning.

Our garden is growing well which is exciting for all of us. The pea plants have pods, the zuchinni are blooming, and the beans are coming along slowly. I'm looking forward to our first "fruits".

Leanna is enjoying her weekly ballet class and just had her first performance. I wasn't sure she was going to make it since mommy was working and daddy wasn't too excited about taking all 3 kids to a Halloween festival by himself. But he was a trooper and after much begging on their part, agreed to it. She did wonderful and the pictures are just priceless! She's really quite a natural.

PE is going very well for Jacob. Last week they swam and he passed the swim test. He had to swim the full length of the pool, which looked Olympic sized??, and then tread water for 30 seconds. I was so proud!
