What is my blog about? It's about Torah family living. It's about letting Torah affect our daily lives, from mealtime to bedtime, homeschooling to farm chores.

Bedrest log day #8, with pics!

Today I was able to spend more time sitting up, so I have a few accomplishments to show off. First, I finally put the tsitsit on Noah's baby blanket. My Mom made him an afghan, so I turned it into a tallit. I made one for Elisha, and held unto it during labor. He rarely sleeps with anything else.


We also were able to do some school today. We are making a lapbook about the 10 plagues and Passover. Actually we are making 3 lapbooks lol. Here is a picture of what we did so far.

I like that it teaches about the Egyptian gods that each plague was directed at. It also covers all the details of Passover. If you like it, here is the link to where I purchased it. Ten Plagues of Egypt lapbook







I thought you might enjoy some pics of some of our lambs. They are old enough to go off and play together while the mommas eat. Yes, we still have snow.

The sweater

The hoodie is finally finished, but the model might surprise you.  Wasn't this Doug's sweater?  Well, yeah.  But when he tried it on, he decided it just wasn't his style, so he gave it to me!  It is apparently too artistic for him.  So he decided he wants a simple green one, and, to keep my interest, brown cuffs and hem.  He is so silly.  Well, at least this hoodie is fun and relatively quick to knit.  The kids have all put their orders in, and are trying to decide on colors.  Don't worry, everyone, I am still making a purple one for me. 


Quick, everyone go find something to knit!  

If you can't knit, now is a good time to learn.
