Owls, Bears and Bunnies (oh my!)

So, I’d been gabbing about the little owl from Think Geek that' I’d been eyeing. I finally got one. I’m trying to upload the video of it on Facebook, but Facebook is being silly so we’ll see.

I love hooking it up to my laptop. It’s the cutest little thing, and it keeps me company as I work on the computer. :-)

 
(I got the white one. *smiles*)

I’ve been working on crocheting Brooke’s pink bear from the Planet June pattern I told you about recently. It’s turning out really well. I’ve been brushing the pieces as I make them, and having ‘real’ stuffed animal eyes and noses makes it so much more fun to make it! :-)

 
I can’t wait to work on Jaycen’s. His will be yellow.

As for homeschooling, it’s going better and better. Brooke is paying attention, she still gets distracted sometimes depending on what we’re reading about, but she was able to recount two stories we read last week just as well as she did right after reading them. She also sat down and taught Jaycen some math this morning…and picked out a Beethoven song on the Classical Music station this morning, comparing it to ‘Eroica’.

(Brooke’s last pencil study of ‘A Young Hare’ by Albrecht Durer) 

In case you’re wondering, we went without the schedule today. I’m getting a sore throat and have been really ‘heady’ today. It’s hard to teach, or have patience to teach, when your head feels like it’s under water. I hope I feel better tomorrow! :-)

I hope you’re all doing well with fall in full swing. It’s starting to feel nippy here…winter is on its way! I hope it snows this year. :-)

(hugs to you)
