Home Town star Erin Napier had a busy January being a “stay at home teacher mom” to her and husband Ben Napier‘s two daughters, Helen (8) and Mae (4).
The HGTV fan favorite took to Instagram last week to share an update on family life. “January flew by as we had the month off from filming and I got to be a stay at home teacher mom!” Erin wrote alongside a carousel of photos, including some rare snaps of Helen and Mae.
“My hair got longer, Mae loves music lessons and stick on earrings and drawing pictures, I picked up oil pastels and they took me to the beach, Helen turned 8 and memorized a John Updike poem, did a book report on the Wizard of Oz, started running track and drew what the music of the week felt like,” she continued.
“Ben built a million fires, we checked a million books out at the library and read *some* of them. *not pictured from January: fever and snot and ear infection
* Is spring coming now? Maybe?” Erin concluded.

The photos included a snap of Erin’s latest hairstyle, some of her oil pastel paintings, and her daughters’ homework. Ben also featured in several photos, in one hugging Helen, another piggybacking Mae, and another giving Mae a lesson in their makeshift home classroom. As always, the Napiers never show their daughters’ faces in the photos.
Another photo celebrated Helen’s eighth birthday, including a special birthday chocolate chip cookie cake.
Fans jumped into the comments to share their reactions, with one Instagram commenter writing, “Wow! Great captures of the month of January! I think you have artistic kids!!! So blessed!!!”
“Sweet life, I commend you and Ben for choosing the simple life and FAMILY FIRST!!
Also, kudos for teaching Helen cursive (an almost lost talent),” said another.
