Hanging at the Houston Home: Week 9

One of my mom's friends made the boys a mask for each of them to wear.  They are so excited to have a mask.  They even wanted to wear them in the car while we were going to grab lunch through a drive thru!  I keep wondering if they will be required to wear a mask when going back to school in the fall.... I feel the novelty will wear off and I can't imagine these young boys being able to keep these on all day while learning!  

Zander lost his fifth tooth!  Mommy pulled it out by tying string to it and giving a slight pull.... it came out really easily since it was hanging on by a thread!
 We loved having beautiful weather and daddy home all weekend!! It has been raining all week so we are so thankful we took advantage of being outdoors while we could!  We set up the splash pad on Friday and Saturday so the boys could squirt us with water guns to their heart's content.  We fit in some bike rides and went fishing at a local park on Sunday.  We didn't catch a fish but we were able to hook daddy and a nearby trashcan! 

 I got to celebrate with some of my friends from work.  We were outside at Anna's house celebrating that Angie was named our new principal.  This is such an incredible answer to many prayers!
 We continue to work on schoolwork daily while mommy also tries to tackle the to-do list.  Since it has rained every day this week, we have watched a movie in the evenings as well!  Both boys have been working hard on their writing.  Maddox is also working on letters, numbers and shapes.  Zander is working on reading books at a 2nd grade level, understanding fractions and elapsed time and practicing basic math facts!  There is never a dull moment and some moments involve the boys running laps around our downstairs and then jumping back into work at the dining room table!
