We have been taking monthly test/checks to see how the students are improving on the weakest standards in 7th grade Math, based on our Acuity predictive data.

After the success of the Aldi Meal Planner, I have decided to pool all of the crockpot meals together into one.  If you are like me fall/winter is the time of the year to use the crockpot to make your dinners.

All of the ingredients that I use are from Aldi.  As a young couple with a toddler we are trying to cut corners wherever we can.  Although, we do like Aldi and would probably shop there even if we were not trying save money.  If you are curious...I go shopping every other weekend (when Drew gets paid) and we spend an average of $115 every two weeks.  This is for everything except Milk.  We usually have to get milk every week, since our one year old drinks it like water and we send it to daycare too.

Here was our monthly photo and chalkboard counter. Starting with before he was here.

My friend at work has boys Porters age and she took them to a salon in Lee's Summit that is just for kids Shear Madness. They have first hair cut packages, special chairs for the kids to sit in, and cartoons playing on the television.  Porters hair was getting really long, so long it was spiking out of his helmet... We have family pictures this week so we thought this would be a good time to get it done.
