Good things

One thing that I am happy about is that since we have been here, I have been concentrating on cooking more real food.  I have made bread every day for the last couple of days.  I am  making oatmeal or eggs or some other good breakfast every day and I am making a chicken pot pie from scratch for supper.  Before we moved, we were so rushed I felt like there were too many convenience junk foods in our house. But I have been doing so much better since we got here.

Here is my list of new curriculum choices:

So while I am a little stressed about having everything ready for the baby when he arrives, there are things I feel like I am doing okay with.
