Month: December 2011

Megan was caught in the act of trying on her crown. I think she was getting ready for the rainy day ball.

Are you tired of the rain?  Instead of singing your favorite rainy day song  or dreaming that the rain was snow, take my kid’s advice and go play in it!  Have fun!

When you come in, cold and wet, remember you are soaking wet and do not get your Momma’s floor all dirty and wet! Take a long hot bath (or shower, if you prefer) and eat some cookies and drink hot apple cider.

This is what memories are made of.

We try to make school on Fridays fun. Today we went to the library. All of the kids enjoyed looking for new books and magazines.

Then, we went to the park.  There is only an inch or two of snow, but we went sledding! Even Megan enjoyed being outside for an hour.

Sledding with so little snow has a few benefits, the most important being the hills are not crowded at all 😉

Megan loves shoes! Sometimes she carries them around the house, but she also likes to put them on –by herself– and try to walk in them!

Today the kids made a batch of “loaded” chocolate chip cookies. They used extra walnuts, dark chocolate and semi sweet chocolate chips. The cookies were very good!

Megan was given a cookie and she really enjoyed it. She then stole Audrey’s cookie.  After laughing at Audrey, she signed “thank you”.
