Things are going pretty good right now. Elijah's schooling is easy and we are getting done much quicker now than when we first started which is nice. Andrew's schooling is coming along. We have learned the system better and I am compiling a checklist for him each morning of all the work he needs to do each day and that has helped keep him on track and has helped me supervise his schooling better. The baby is the only thing that isn't easy breezy right now. Not that he is bad but he is just a handful right now.
Daniel's new favorite thing to do is climb up on chairs then proceed to climb right on top of the dining room table. We keep a lot of our schooling stuff on the table so now he gets into it all and throws it on the floor. I'm constantly taking him down and putting stuff back in order. At first as long as the chairs were pushed in he wouldn't try to climb up them and onto the table but now he just pulls them out and puts them where he wants. He really keeps me busy. I thought Elijah was active at Daniel's age but Daniel is way more active than Elijah ever was. He won't sit still. He is constantly busy and that usually means a mess is sure to follow. He got into Andrew's ball reward system and took all the balls out of his container and threw them all over the house (about 30 of them). I admit that was partly my fault because it was cute at first. He was so happy to get each ball and throw it then he would clap his hands after every throw and say "dalll!". At least it occupied him for good long while.

Consistency is the hardest when they're cute!
You need a video of all that cute stuff. Who knows, it might make America's funniest videos.
