This year, Gigi enters first grade. She is six now and it's time for her to become more socially involved with her peers.
With this in mind, we have signed her up for Karate classes through a local Homeschool co-op as well as Girl Scouts. i believe we will involve her in more activity, possibly a sport in the Spring (we're thinking t-ball or soccer). She has expressed tons of interest in voice lessons, but I have not been able to find an instructor that will take on a 6 year old - the ones I have contacted will only begin lessons at 7 years old.
Little man will be attending some classes of his own this year. Our local Family Resource Center provides some great group classes for little ones. We will be participating in Little Amigos (Spanish class), Music and More and Wonder Years (Skills for 2 and 3 year olds) on a rotating basis. I am also planning on signing him up for our local Tiny Tots program which is ran by the Parks department. Gigi was in this program for 2 years and loved it. It's a drop-off class, twice a week for 2 hours each time. This will not happen until January though as he needs to be 3 and his birthday is not until the end of October.
In addition to these outside activities, we are also keeping our annual family passes to Busch Gardens and we have added annual family passes to MOSI (Museum of Science and Industry).
As far as school is concerned, I recently posted about our goals for this year on our Homeschool blog. I have a separate blog for school because I need to show certain things at the end of the year to our evaluator and it just makes it easier. You can read about that through this link if you want.
Until next time, here are some random pictures of the kids:
