Should I build a Web Site?

I wonder if I should build a website for all of my homeschooling junk. That way I can keep this blog for family and friends. I would like to make my homeschooling resources more public and accessible, not something I really want for a private blog.
Since my family doesn't homeschool, and my homeschooling friends don't visit my blog, (for the most part) sniff, sniff, it doesn't make much sense to have everything here. That and I am reluctant to give out my blog address to just anyone I meet in the store or library. With a web site it would be easier to become a homeschooling consultant.

Hmmm. Oh, but then I would have to learn HTML and CSS and stuff. ARRGG. Not exactly how I was planning on spending my school break.

random news




Before her hair cut




And after



Rebecca went and chopped her hair off. Now it is practically a mullet.

AARRGGGHH!!!!




Isaac made a pretty cool foil boat.


All his own design. I did some minimal help with the rigging.
In other news, Joshua thinks he is big enough to start crawling. He can also push himself from his belly into a sitting position. Now I really have to make sure the legos are off the floor.
For about 9 years I have put the kid's hand prints on a Christmas tree skirt. We finally filled one and have begun on the second. When babies are involved I usually strip them so that they don't get paint on their clothing. I never thought I should have to worry about my clothing though-- Thank you Joshua!! 5 sets of hand prints take up a lot of space. Maybe I should think up a new tradition.
Well, I better get going for now.

Joshua

Well, little man Joshua is 6 months old now.

I am still pumping for him, but it is no longer exclusively. It was until about 4 months, but then my supply went down and I didn't want to put in the work to get it back up again. Now it has dropped again so I am giving him about half of his daily food.

But he is a great little guy. We love having him around. Can you tell he likes to hear his song? He always stops to listen to his song.
