This month has just
flown by. School keeps us really busy, leaving little time for blogging. Everyone is well though. The girls are doing great in school. Abigail has moved up again in reading and is now at a third grade level!! She's been reading two books a night and testing 100's consistently for AR. Amelia has also been reading a bunch, breezing through the beginner reading books we have at home! Abigail has also started to show interest in math. Her teacher has been sending her home with some first grade worksheets as homework and Will has been working with her, teaching her symmetry, grouping and number placement. (We plan on skipping grades 1-12 and having her go straight to
college next year.)
It's been unusually cold all month, so we've spent what little downtime we have cooped up inside. We had one day a few weeks ago where it was finally above 4o and we all went down to the beach.
It was warm enough to play in the sand, but not warm enough to play in the water. (Though there was only little boy there who thought so. He was probably from Maine)
Last week we actually went to Washington DC. Will promises to write all about it soon. ;)

That first picture, when I glanced quickly, looked like snow!
When you live in Maine, you don't really think about that we don't go outside as a family for months at a time when it's winter. Maybe I need to plan a sledding party of something to get us outside, of course with a big bonfire to keep warm :-)
Great pictures...I copied them to put on my FB page....had to show off your beautiful family!
