Christmas Fun


The month of December has been filled with lots of treats! Miss S, Grandma Patt, and Poppy worked on decorative rice crispy treats and a gingerbread house too. S has had so much fun this month with all the special fun December brings. One day I heard her tearing open a present under the tree, so my sister Pamela suggested we print pictures of everyone, and tape a picture of the person on their present. Great idea! Now she sits by the tree and tells me who each present is for, while stacks them, rearranges them, and anxiously waits for Christmas.
The other day while at the park, we decided to collect some pinecones to decorate. This became a 3 day project. We have had the paint in and out of the closet several times. Each day she wants to add a little more paint to one of the pine cones. Such a small project, but it had kept her happy and busy for days.
December - one of my favorite months of the year!!!

22 weeks and counting!

Yippee! 5 1/2 months pregnant and feeling good!
Christmas is in the air, and the happy holiday spirit is in our house.
We got our Christmas tree on Friday, and boy oh boy did we have a good little helper - 2 broken ornaments later, our tree was decorated and ready for presents to go under it.
I decided I needed to take some "belly" shots, since I'm way behind (2nd pregnancy you realize you just don't have the time like you did with the 1st pregnancy). So as I posed in front of the tree, I suddenly had a copy cat! She said "my turn" and lifted up her shirt just like I had done. All we could do was laugh :)
