Good Bye

On a regular basis I take my Hubby to school so that I can have the car for the day. A few weeks ago He told our daughter "See you latter alligator"




She soon learned the proper response and tells him back "After a while crocodile"

Christmas Jello Gigglers

I had My big guy home from school this week for two days. One because he was sick and one because he had to be fever free for 24 hours before he could go back to school. The second day he got taken to the commissary. While there he saw a jello Gigglers Christmas mold, you know the ones that are "free" if you buy so many packs of jello. We got one and had fun making them. They were a hit at dinner. The icing on the cake, they all came right out of the mold.

STINKY !!

When I take the little guy to the changing table to change a stinky diaper I always plug my nose and tell him STINKY. Today he came up to me and I could tell he wanted something. When I asked what do you want he didn't do any of his normal signs, I could tell by the smell that he needed to be changed so I started to pick him up. While my face was at his level he plugged my nose. I guess he knew what he wanted. Now to just teach him to make the sign on his nose.

Nativities

I love Christmas Nativities I think it has something to do with my mom who has like 80+ that she sets up each year, yes we counted them once and she gets new ones every year.

I also love the ones that children can play with. I have some that are kept up safe but some are meant to be played with One of my favorites is this one from fisher-price



I love to see my kids playing with it or setting it up as the bigger ones do. My little guy likes to give baby Jesus a ride like this. It makes me laugh every times I see it.

Sunday Tradition

We have a Sunday tradition, I know most people are talking about Christmas ones but this is one that we enjoy all year. Sunday evening we bake. It could be Chocolate chip cookies, or maybe eclairs, sometimes even a cake. Tonight it was rice crispy treats. Three simple ingredients and they taste great.

Our Tree

The kids and I set up our tree tonight. Some year I will have two one with all of their ornaments, that yes I love and one that I get to decorate. A tree that is less cluttered. I wouldn't even mind if it looked something like this.

Mini Trees

Who wouldn't love to fall asleep with this in their room.



For December we have a little tree in the kids bedrooms. They get to decorate it. Sometimes over and over. It is their tree.



This is a Christmas tradition that my kids love, But then who doesn't love falling asleep to Christmas tree lights.
