First day = done!! The day started early for me as I had a dr. appt. to find out the gender of baby 10!! Its a girl! I could have gone much earlier to find out but I just never had the time. We are thrilled and in 10 short weeks she'll be here!! Kenson and Adaly did extremly well. Pretty much all independent work for them this year. Adaly had her complaints but did well once she pushed pass that. I wish I could say that levi, Lincoln, Ellyson and Colton did that well. Oh man. In my 9 years I have never had such a rough start day. They whined and cryed and complained non stop today. We completed a math lesson for each of them and read the first chapter for history and I was done! I was near tears and so I let them go out and play. Colton and Ellyson both laid down and took a nap so the twins and I did and art project. Not much "school" got done. but we have a whole year!! Rylan and Jeran enjoyed using the glue stick! I cute out different shapes of construction paper and went over the shapes with them. Then I let them clue it to cardstock. We also read a book and then they played outside. I haven't started with the workbooks yet. My plan was to do that today but my patience was low today and I figured, I shouldn't start that when I'm not ready. Selena was very clingy today. She had a slight fever and runny nose so she just tagged along with mommy. She then took a nap and is still sleeping. We have 5 kids sleeping and the rest are having quiet time. Its been a hectic day and not very productive but there is always a tommorow!!
