No worries. ;)
Rhonda is actually beginnin...Haha! No worries. ;) <br /><br />Rhonda is actually beginning to like tummy time (depending on her mood). I think I didn't do it enough at first, so once I started doing it more, she didn't have the strength to lift her head up very much and it was frustrating to her. Now that she's gaining some strength, she can do more--I think rolling over is on the horizon! <br /><br />I've been perusing a book called Homeschooling: The Early Years (for homeschooling kids 3-8). I've mostly been reading it so I'll start thinking about what my homeschooling will look like in a few years, but you might actually like it better than I do. I like that it encourages a lot of different approaches instead of focusing on just one way. I also read The Brainy Bunch, the one I recommended to you. <br /><br />The personal finance books I've been reading are just ones I grabbed off the library shelves, so I wouldn't say they're masterpieces or anything, but I've been enjoying them. The one I finished recently is The Money Saving Mom's Budget, which was more about budgeting, couponing, etc. (everyday details). The one I'm currently reading is I Will Teach You To Be Rich, which is more about big-picture saving and investing. You might already know the information in it, but it's a pretty entertaining read, too. <br /><br />So, there you go! Let me know if you decide to read any of them. :) Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07607332311943840211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9060307917955932846.post-54503077972729123552015-03-25T16:40:00.654-07:002015-03-25T16:40:00.654-07:00Hmm, did I just say in a roundabout way that "...Hmm, did I just say in a roundabout way that "everything is going to be all right" with the tummy time issue?

But I'll mention a few things.<br /><br />You intrigued me by saying on Classics and Beyond that you've been reading a lot of personal finance and homeschooling books. I really would be interested in hearing about them. I love personal finance books and I've read practically all of them in my small library, but I'd like to get suggestions for books to order from other libraries. I haven't quite settled into my niche with homeschooling books, but since I'm homeschooling Summer I'm interested in exploring the topic.<br /><br />Summer absolutely hated tummy time as well. She didn't have any flat spots on her head (probably because she made us hold her 24/7), but I think the lack of tummy time did affect her motor skill development. She had a really hard time with any skills that originated from the tummy - she actually learned to walk before she learned to crawl. But she learned to scoot instead of crawling, and she has no deficits now, so I wouldn't trade the scooting for more typical development because it was so incredibly adorable!Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10038597347405251733noreply@blogger.com
