"Take our picture by the nativity mom"

Arrived at Macy's sugared up (!)

Buttering their bread in true Montessori style 

Dad met us there :)

Was cute that Blaise kept his antlers on the whole time. Wondering if he will still wear them next year.

Scooting in December

This warm weather is the best!

Rosie and "HoHo"

We attend a Thursday morning playgroup at a church in our neighborhood. This week they had their Christmas party, complete with Santa. Rosie wasn't buying it. 

But made a very swift recovery when it was cookie time. 

Choo choo

Danny and Meghan gave Gus an amazing train set for his bday. Blaise set it up under the tree with a gift tunnel. :)

Rosie added a passenger to the train... Baby Jesus!

Gus had his fourth birthday party. It was a pizza/truck party. His favorite people were there. 

Jameson and Gus did not talk beforehand, but magically showed up in matching outfits. Ha!

He was so appreciative of this truck cake. 

Blaise made a play-doh pizza

Getting ready for guests to arrive

Pizza party favors

Happy bday Happy Gus!

Fri and Sat

Friday we partied hard, celebrating Rosie, Kate and Finley's birthdays with our block. Our babies are two! The party was lady bug themed. 

Saturday we went to a neighborhood Christmas celebration and saw Santa!

Rosie saw him and decided to move back. Blaise wanted a football mouth guard. Gus wanted a truck. Rosie wanted a toy piano. Tommy and I want a good night's sleep. :) 

Cookie decorating 

Rosie got Mrs Potato Head :)

Blaise put all of our shoes out for St Nick.  Next year there will be another pair. But pink or blue? Tommy and I think pink.  Hmmmm

Celebrations

Gus loves his Lite Brite from Mimi and pjs from Nana. 

Rosie was gifted this beautiful dollhouse bookshelf from Uncle Jake. 

"Shepherd and Mary"

Blaise is making the ENFL (Elf National Football League) for Hudson and his friends. B sewed him this captain's jersey. :)
