homeschool preschool construction unit | iphoneography

Homeschool 2015 week one was a great start to our year. This is our first year educating 4 children at home. We are covering everything from Farm Animals to Physics this year! In addition to the structured curriculum for Jude, Taryn and Ty, I have put together an early pre-k curriculum for Jonah. We have a theme each week and our first theme was Construction / Diggers. I forgot to add photos of our Letter Boxes for this week – I’ll add them for week 2 when I post – they were a huge hit with Jonah. Our week looked like this:

Day 72 | 365 Project

He doesn’t get much screen time but since we started school he’s fallen in love with Storybots. Today, he found Jude’s old listening program headphones and was *thrilled* when I plugged them in so he could watch Storybots.

We love their apps and find something applicable with our preschool lesson plans every single week. http://www.storybots.com/videos

a baby brother | austin birth photographer

I spent yesterday photographing a beautiful birth. We went from “baby will be here around 4:30 pm, take your time” to “come now!” 12:30 pm was the new time and I arrived in the parking garage around 12:25 pm. I was so thankful for light traffic on I35 (for once – go Austin!). I literally ran in to the hospital and she was taken back 2 minutes later. I threw on a fancy paper outfit and things started happening. Baby boy is SO cute! His gender was a surprise and his big brothers were *thrilled* to have a baby brother! Congrats S family!!

the details

I’m currently working up updating and freshening up a few things with the business, including a new pricing guide. I thought I’d come share a few fluff photos including my new jump drives from USB Memory Direct. I absolutely love them!

Day 69 | 365 Project

I was off witnessing and photographing the miracle of birth today. Ty held down the fort, handled homeschool and nap time and snacks and all that comes with the chaos of this house. It can be hard to come home, pick up my camera and find inspiration after witnessing so many beautiful moments all day long and using up my creative tap. Thankfully, these two yahoos above made it easy to quickly grab my photo of the day when I made it home just in time for dinner, bath and bed.
