Finished Class 1

It's been a while since I posted - a month today! I've been busy with class these last couple months and today was the end of the beginning class. Next month is advanced class - hands-on workshop, really.

I've been getting up early with TJ for homeschool. I can concentrate better in the morning (especially if I actually slept, so I'm going to bed after this post), and we actually get schoolwork done. I'm going to have to set little goals through the year to get work done on a good schedule! Especially as I'm adding MissA to 'regular' school -she'll be in first grade. He only has two more weeks (4 days) left of his co-op classes! This semester has just flown by!

I bought a baby seat for my bike this week. Tonight, TJ and I rode over to the store and I used the seat for the groceries to practice the high center of gravity. It worked out fine and the 2 minutes to the store really flew. Usually, we walk over there and it's more like 10-20 minutes (even when they roll down the little grassy knolls). It was nice to have that little bit of freedom - light breeze, powered by me, blood flowing, so much nicer than being cooped up in the car or super slow walking to the store! I'm looking forward to riding the bike to the library on Thursday!

We're looking forward to a visit from the children's Grandparent's and Uncle in early June! I'm finishing off tasks and trying to get the house in semi-order. It's refreshing to see the counter regularly again!

We've been having a lovely heat wave this week. Thursday it hit 103F near TJ's class. We went swimming when we got home. Friday the children and I went to the beach and left when we felt chilly there, it was only 101F when we got home. Saturday was a planned trip to Big Basin. Beautiful. Next time, I'm planning on going earlier (I prefer to hike in the morning or evening rather than midday). We were a little late and missed the group hike, but were able to enjoy a family hike. There's lots of campgrounds there, so we may try that later in the year.

I can't find most of my size 2 DPNs, something tells me the wee little one had a trash run with them (she's at that age where everything goes in the container, especially the garbage container!). I've started TJ's gloves on the size 2s, so I'm thinking I'm stuck buying more to finish the task!
