Kindergarten Christmas Party

Titus and I were both able to go to Thomas' Christmas party at school today. They broke up in groups of 3 or 4 and went to 5 different centers. There was a parent volunteer at each center to do each activity. They had a center that made reindeer food, which was a mixture of bird seed and glitter (apparently the glitter is what makes the reindeer fly) You spread this reindeer food in your yard on Christmas Eve in order to help the reindeer. In the next center they painted their hands to make a Santa face from there hand print (white on the finger tips for Santa's beard, pink on the palm for Santa's cheeks and face, and red on the thumb and top of hand for Santa's hat). This was the center Titus was in charge of and it was comical to say the least let me tell you...Titus was having to paint there little hands for them and some how get them to not get paint everywhere...it was super cute! The next center decorated sugar cookies. Then they came to my center which took a sugar cone (like for ice cream) and covered it with green frosting. Then they decorated the Christmas tree with m&m's, sprinkles, and various other candy. Then the kids were off to another center where they made reindeer sandwiches (this was peanut butter and jelly on wheat bread cut into a triangle shaped head, it had pretzels for antlers, raisins for eyes and a cherry for a nose).

This is the center decorating cookies
This is my center where we are doing Christmas trees...
Here is Titus in action with his finger painting...
At the end of all the activities his teacher gave all the kids gifts from her and from her teachers aid and she also opened her presents from the students. They had a very exciting day! Titus and I were grateful we got to be a part of there day. And Nana was kind enough to keep Tyler for us.

Snow Day...

These pics are from last week when we had a few snow days. Jillian and her mom came over and the kids played in the snow together. It was a great day for all of us. I am so thankful I was able to be home with them and enjoy this day.


Then they came in to warm up and we let them bake and decorate some sugar cookies...Yummy!!

At the end of day I made some homemade vegetable soup and we watched Christmas movies and cuddled up together on the couch. You just couldn't ask for a better day together!

10 weeks old

Tyler is smiling all the time, he will watch your mouth and try to move his tongue around to mimic you. He also follows you with his eyes and seems to be starting to really recognize familiar voices and faces. He is a very happy baby and starting to sleep a lot longer at night (thank goodness).

Happy 6th Birthday

Where has the time gone?? Six Years ago today, our lives changed in the best way imaginable, We became parents to the sweetest most precious baby boy we could ever ask for.

We celebrated at Grandmom and Grandaddy's tonight, Thomas asked for some footed Pajama's like Tylers so of course Grandmom made that happen. They are super soft and comfy looking!
And of course he got his favorite, chocolate cake with Grandmoms homemade icing.

And he loved it...
 
More presents!!!
