Christmas tree craft

 Today we did a super easy craft. I cut a tree out of construction paper. Autumn decorated it with stickers and glued some cheerios on for ornaments and colored it. She loves to use glue and it is good fine motor skills putting on the cheerios.

Merry Christmas!

Madison-walking and talking

Madison has been walking really well over the past few weeks and she also started talking. It is so much fun to watch her grow. She says Tomka, Cracker, teeth, Dog, nana (banana), uh-oh. She is trying so hard to say other words too. She can also sign all done, more, please and eat. I love that she can communicate a little.

Christmas program

 Autumn had her Christmas program this morning. It was the 4 youngest classes at Christ the King. They all did so well. Autumn's class was wearing red. Here is Autumn walking in and below her sitting on stage

 She sang her little heart out.

 All smiles

 Today I sat Madi at the kid table for snack. She thought that was great. My baby is turning into a toddler. She is now officially walking. (15 months later)

So Blessed!

Flower girl

 Autumn was a flower girl in a wedding last Friday. She was so excited. The dress, the curls; she was in heaven.

 We had so much fun. Autumn was a dancing machine. She must get her moves from her daddy. She danced ALL night long

Reindeer Cookies

 We made these super cute reindeer cookies last week and thought we would share. They were super easy and Autumn had so much fun helping. All you need is a roll of pillbury peanut butter cookies. Take the roll and shape it like a triangle, then put in freezer for 20 minutes. Take out and cut into 1/2 inch triangle pieces. Add pretzels for ears and bake according to package. Once you take them from the oven put 2 hershey chocolate morsals for eyes and a red peanut butter M&M for the nose. Let cool and that's it.

Christmas Tree and finger painting

 We got our Christmas tree Sunday and decorated it Monday nite. Autumn was so excited.

 Here are the ornaments they got this year

 Madison loves the "ba" (balls on the tree

 Madi finger painted for the first time the other day. She did pretty good, minus she wanted to eat it. Even after she tasted it she kept trying to put her hands in her mouth. This girl will eat anything. Fun experience though.

 Autumn had fun painting too

Disneyland

 Autumn went on her first roller coaster this trip. She went on the matterhorn. She was very excited! She did really well, not sure she would choose to do it again anytime soon, but she did good
