First it was Bella's birthday. Our little lovely is now 9 years old. She got a new (on clearance from Halloween) spider which she promptly tore apart and destroyed the squeaker. She also got homemade pupcake treats that were a hit!
The Christmas tree was found, purchased and decorated...after about 3 trips to Target to get lights. Sigh.....
Maya's been quite the little performer lately. We've been attending LOTS of performance, both of the singing and gymnastics/dance variety. Very entertaining.
Here she's singing a Christmas carol, but usually its one of her kids CDs and let me tell you - she is quite the diva!
Maya and her BFF Lily have been playing...ok, mostly dancing and dressing up.
One day when Lily, Meghan and Chase were over, I set this sensory tub for Chasey so the girls could do a craft at the table without him drooling all over everything. Lets just say the girls liked the tub as much as Chase did.
Ahhh, they finally got to the craft...decorating Christmas shapes with stickers, glue and other stuff found in the craft bins. : )
Here are the results of multiple crafts.
I found a couple of recipies for chocolate goodies and were just begging to be tried, so I enlisted Maya and Lily to help. Good thing Maya went and found those little aprons. I know the table looks clean in the picture, but trust me, it was COVERED in chocolate, as were the girls for the most part. : )
These Giant Mallow Cups and Christmas Krunch bars were super yummy!
So that's what we've been up to. Today we traded in the girls too-small ice skates for new ones that actually fit and headed to the rink. Their skating is much improved from last year already on our first time out. We are crediting it to their roller blades, but who knows. Pictures to come. : ) Tomorrow we're off to the Macy's display and the Holidazzle parade. Good stuff!
