mall date with my girls :)
nordstrom for lunch- just the 3 of us! lucy has gotten so big, properly feeding herself her entire meal, and eloise is as content as can be in her high-chair :) not a moment goes by that i'm not grateful for the gift of being mom to these 2 precious girls!
scented gingerbread men art- cinnamon, nutmeg & pumpkin spice
...but all lu wanted to do was eat it :)
ready for her big girl bed sooner than anticipated?
we played a fun game where we'd roll the dice, and lucy would have to match the color she rolled with the coordinating tree "ornament", then glue on the coordinating color dot. many steps & she did so well!
she did a great job of sorting the paper into coordinating piles, too- she's so my daughter
my favorite christmas gift this year! my eloise amy :)
christmas music dance party with homemade instruments- jingle bell necklace, shakers [tupperware filled with buttons] & wooden spoons :)
driving home from a fun cookie exchange with dear friends + eloise :)
thursday was a beautiful snowy day!
we brought our snow inside... eloise giggled at the cold :)
lucy went back & forth between whether her friend should be named frosty or olaf- & she was so distraught when he melted!
perfect day for crockpot peppermint hot chocolate & santa jammies!
lucy actually LOVED being outside- i may have had to bribe her to come back inside. she wasn't so sure about walking in the snow, but once i picked her up & plopped her in the middle of the yard, she refused to move...
spiral paper plate christmas tree :)
friday was a special frozen christmas ballet camp- lucy had a blast! jon was able to come & hang with eloise while lucy danced :)
my sweet, sweet elsa
we played a game where lucy would match letters on cardstock christmas stockings, then find the coordinating envelope- she blew me away with this! anytime i would try & interject & help, she'd screech "i do it! wucy do it!" ...& she did. correctly. every single letter i put up there.
spelling "lucy" & "eloise"
card & cookies for lucy's ballet teacher that she ADORES! she's an absolute teacher's pet- haha!
lucy's best "distressed cinderella" with her broom :)
the slipper fits!
we spent this afternoon bowling with jon's aunt lisa & cousin cooper, who are in town from indiana! eloise LOVED all of the sights & sounds!
& lucy had the best time bowling- her 1st time!
tonight we made homemade thank you cards for our christmas gifts using the end of a paper towel tube to stamp for triangle christmas trees- sorry for the spoiler, family & friends! :) i am out of control... i know.
aaaand we only have to come up with creative miss cinnamon shenanigans for 3 more nights... :)
xoxo,
