I love my laptop!






I know, two posts in the same week. But it is a different month.




I got a laptop when my very old (6 years) computer died a few weeks ago. It allowed us to have school outside earlier this week, thanks to a neighbor's wireless network.




We were talking about continents, and it was the coolest to pull up Google maps and show them a map of the world and have them pick out the continents. All while sitting on the hammock swing.




My other favorite part is taking the laptop into the kitchen. I taught a raw foods class last week and am doing a smoothie event this Saturday. Preparing for both has been made so much easier by having the laptop, internet, and my saved recipes, in the kitchen with me.


Amanda is our fourth child to learn how to walk using the below pictured walker. She's getting pretty good at it, but hasn't learned how to turn yet.


We were having a great time outside, until it started snowing again this week. Don't get me wrong, I love the cool weather and the excuse to stay inside and read books. But Amanda loves her swing in the backyard.

i would just like to point out the photo credits on 3 out of 4 photos in that blog. i'm a little proud of them, but it's not hard to take good pictures with kids as cute as yours.

Gotta love those unprotected wireless networks!

I'm glad William's foot is getting better so fast. Drew stepped on a nail last week and it took her a week to get over that. Granted, I think she's doing a bit more athletic things than William, but still! The littlest kids heal SO FAST!
