…the end result of the Santa cookie-making with Colin. Thankfully I convinced him that we didn’t need to make ALL the cookies look like Santa. Colin is a liberal applicant of sprinkles.
Annual performance review?
Laura made a Christmas card for us at school.
Holiday baking
Time to catch up on holiday baking. Each of the kids chose a recipe to make: Laura made lemon shimmer cheesecake bars with little help on my part. Colin helped make sugar cookies which we will decorate tomorrow to look like Santa.
Sharing the shopping helping
Laura and Colin both wanted to carry the basket at PetSmart. Sharing was the best solution.
Lap dog
At 30lb, MacDougall figures he’s a lap dog.
Lots of playing to do
The kids were really excited (and a little overwhelmed) about all the generous gifts. Thank you everyone and Merry Christmas!
Heavenly Peace
Merry Christmas!
MacD comes home
There wasn’t much else going on this week, so we got a dog today.
School Holiday Skating Party
Laura and Colin went skating with their school last week.
Laura is getting much more confident on her skates
Colin has the outfit and the anticipation down. He was ready to go!
Until we got on the ice. 5 min standing still next to the door was all he had in him this trip. Not a single step.
Bribery.
Mommy had to get some shopping done while a Daddy and Laura were at home sick.
