Happy July 1!
We are back at home. The kids don't have anything going on this week, but having 3 big kids at home is so much easier than having 3 little kids at home. I can put my headphones on and get work done!
Good stuff: My oldest is perfectly content designing airplanes, taking apart tractors, and printing out random music for violin and then playing it (and also watching youtube videos... let's be honest here... ). The middle kid has been listening to audio books and planning our upcoming trip (and watching youtube videos). The youngest one has been reading, doing her summer work, and sneaking up to the older two to watch youtube videos with them.
They can make their own breakfast and lunch, they can clean up the dishes. They are supposed to help out around the house, but there hasn't been too much to clean recently. But that's about to change - there's mudroom and family room cleanup in the near future!
Books:
- E is listening to Michael Connelly's Bosch (not sure which book)
- H is listening to one of The Mysterious Benedict Society books (I think book 3?); she is also partially through Angela's Ashes by Frank McCourt.
- C is reading the Percy Jackson series (she is on book 2).
- I am reading Turning to Stone by Marcia Bjornerud
- Husband is reading At Home by Bill Bryson
TV:
- The girls are watching Desperate Housewives
- E is watching Bosch
- Husband: nothing
- I started watching Etoile - I really like it!
- Wouldn't it be nice to have a show that we could all watch together... Unfortunately, we are at a point of wildly divergent interests and ability to handle mature themes.
- E is playing The Witcher 3
What are your July plans and happenings?
