Christmas Party

For daycare we had a party with Santa. The kids enjoyed it so much. They all even sat on his lap...not all of them thrilled but most of them were. Avery had been shy with him before when we saw him at the mall (creepy one) and at C&S with the live reindeer (bad costume) but was pretty comfortable when he came here!

Santa told a very inappropriate breastfeeding story and said that it was his most embarassing moment. I think all the adults were flabbergasted but the kids didn't seem to even notice!

This weekend Avery wanted to call Santa because his new Twins hat didn't fit. We told him to call but he said he didn't know his number. It was so cute.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

So I have been really bad lately at keeping up with this blog...I have been so busy it seems and I forget by the time I sit down at the computer. So here is an update on things around here (I have so many stories I can't think of them all right now).

Blake continues to do well with hockey. They had their 2nd game of the season. They don't keep score so it is basically just for fun. He is doing better listening this week than last week but it seems that he isn't the only one with a short attention span. He loves every minute of it though so that is what is important. They have been asking to go to the outdoor rink every day!

Avery started skating lessons yesterday. He got to skate on Christmas Eve with the whole family so he got a little practice in then. He did better outside than in but I think the ice wasn't so slippery outside.

As for Mike and I we have been off work. He has 2 weeks off and I have 12 days off so it could be tense around our house by the 5th when we go back to work! So far we are still working on putting our house back in order. I will be taking down everything Christmas today. We just really need some order back!

I will post some pictures in a little while.

Cute Blake Story

I was watching TV with Blake yesterday and there was a commercial for some weight loss pill. Blake says to me 'mom, that stuff is for losing weight' and I told him that yes they were. Then he says 'but you don't need them'. I asked him why he said that and he told me 'because you don't need to lose weight'. That sure made my day! Never even stopped to think that he thought about that stuff. Kids are so cute!
