Thursday December 22 2011

We had a very busy day!  I need to thank Alanah and Phaedra for picking up the playroom during rest time. They did a fantastic job! :-)  Thank goodness too, because it looked like a cyclone had hit! I cleaned the kitchen while they put all the toys away!

For afternoon snack we made gingerbread houses. David and Brian pre-assembled the graham crackers. We used dried fruit this year, instead of candy, so that it would be a healthier treat :-)

Phaedra and Alanah asked that we make them again this year- and I am glad we did it was fun :-)

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!!

I feel so fortunate to have all of you in my life and I am so glad you all are here!

Brendan spoons the beans

Addison polishing

Phaedra polishing

They ask to do this, it is so cool :-)


Charli

Alanah loves animals and loves this book

Lelia pouring with the china tea set

Brendan stayed with this for a really long time




He did take a short break to play with some toys, but then came right back to it


Addison brings out the stacking toy

Brendan tries it out after Addison was done

Now Addison pours

Lelia washes the babies and Phaedra washes the toothpaste polish off of the metal bowls

The Boog is over by the door




Dried fruit instead of candy for our gingerbread houses

All set up and waiting for afternoon snack

I have to thank Dave and Brian for their building skills. I wasn't going to do this activity this year but Phaedra and Alanah requested it :-)

Time to decorate



I learned from previous years that they eat as much as they put on the house, so decided to make it snack :-)




Alanah poses next to her house


Charli was talking then started to yawn


In the playroom, Alanah spread the big mat and asked her friends to sit with her
