Christmas Morning

Right below this video is a volume control...use it because I am a tad loud! Sorry...

Sweet Cuteness

Kaitrin and her Hot Chocolate Maker


Kaitrin the Red Nosed Reindeer

Straw Glasses!

Christmas Eve Ornaments


Finished Product

Jacob and his finished product. He is deep in thought with what to do with the rest of his day!Surprisingly, Kaitrin didn't get as much paint on herself as I thought she would.

Holiday Fun

Since both daycare and Martial Arts Winter Camp were closed on Christmas Eve, we decided to go on an adventure to a paint-your-own-pottery place. Jacob picked a skull mug and painted it with blue, red, green and black. Kaitrin chose a butterfly for her bedroom.Jacob wanted to paint the inside of his mug too!

Art Time with Kaitrin


On a chilly weekend with nothing to do but color on clothing! Kaitrin colored a fairy t-shirt while Jacob and I tye-dyed.

Seymour likes the new sink....



It seems that Seymour is feeling better from his shot reaction since he was able to jump up to the counter top. I guess he likes the new sink as much as I do!

Poor Seymour


After a bad reaction from his rabies shot, Mr. Seymour was very cuddly. Poor little buddy's back leg swelled to twice the size. He was not a happy camper! We went to the Vet ER for a steroid shot, drove back in a snow storm and cuddled on the couch until bed time.

TANGLED


Butterflies


Grandpa bought the cutest toy at Cracker Barrel. Each kid now has a jar with a butterfly in it that automatically flutters around the jar when the jar is tapped. Jacob - smart boy that he is - says, "I think it's mechanical!" Kaitrin carries her jar around as though it's a baby doll and her new best pet. She has named her best pet Chickee Poo. She was also nice enough to name Jacob's butterfly - Psycho. Yep, she named it Psycho. You just never know what is gonna come out of her mouth!

He's SO Sneaky


Monthly Whole Foods Taste Test!


It's the monthly food taste test from Whole Foods! The kids picked pomegranates, persimmons, dates, and lady apples.

I have never worked with persimmon and based on this picture...we ate it wrong! It was VERY starchy and VERY sour! We may need to have them ripen up next time before we go chomping into it!
"Holy Cow, it tastes like a giant raisin!" says Jacob as he tries a date for the first time.
