Christmas crafting

I will be the first to tell you that I am not a very hands on, play with the kids all day, do crafts and puzzles kind of mom. It's something I actually don't like much about myself. I wish I were a little bit more fun. I'm working on it. But on this day I was a fun mom. Paper crafting Christmas countdowns and Santa heads with my boys. I sure do love these two! 



Potty training.



He decided it was time....
And so it begins...
Look at that cute underwear clad bum! He a actually did really well. Especially once he realized treats were involved. Update: he is potty trained!!! Yay! It took him a little longer than it took Pratt but he still did awesome. No accidents for a couple of weeks now! 

Christmas in November

This year we put up the Christmas tree SUPER early. Way before even thanksgiving. The boys begged and begged and so I finally gave in. It wasn't much of a sacrifice though. I love it as much as they do. I remember doing this very same thing when I was a kid. There is something really magical about Christmas tree lights. 

Tree is all decorated!

Stockings are hung! Now the waiting begins. 

Halloween

We had so much fun on Halloween going to grandma and grandpa wintle's and then going trick-or-treating. Such a fun holiday!

My little Mickey Mouse


And don't forget Iron Man!


And of course we needed to get a picture of Mickey and Minnie (Harper) together.
