Homeschooling and Life: Week of Nov. 26-Dec. 1, 2012

We have had another good week. We are transitioning into that busy time of the year, but we will still get some schooling done. We will also take a break for Christmas, but that will be a few weeks away. For now, we are in full school mode! Doodles is still learning about China in Sonlight Core F and enjoying weekly nature studies. Bug is still enjoying his Narnia unit study, which has led us to several great topics this week: the Ottoman Empire, life after death, the seven ancient wonders of the world, and the seven natural wonders of the world...just to name a few. Baby Girl is learning to count and also learning her colors using M&M's, which are her absolute favorite candy!  Also, we have done our Christmas decorating. Baby Girl is having a blast getting into the decorations! And, speaking of Christmas, I've also included a couple of low carb desserts I made for Thanksgiving. Just because it's the holidays doesn't mean I will slip in my low carb lifestyle! So, with a little bit of everything, here are some moments from this week:
