We’ve been busy this month getting ready for Christmas. I think the boys’ favorite Christmas activity so far is opening their chocolate Advent calendar each day. I got them each their own, so their would each have their own piece of candy every day. A couple of weeks ago we went with Grandma Pam to Union Station to see the model trains and also ride the Holiday Express Train. Then we ate lunch at Fritz’s and played outside at Crown Center on all the wooden cars and toys by the big Christmas tree. Henry fell face first onto the concrete getting out of one of the cars… I’m so thankful he didn’t knock his front teeth out. Luckily he was able to get his hands up to break his fall.
Last weekend, Grandma Sue and Grandpa Bill came up to hear Jack sing at church. He is quite the performer now and does a great job remembering the words to all of his songs. He was thrilled because his choir teachers gave each child a stuffed donkey as a Christmas gift. He named his Domino. On Saturday we decorated our first gingerbread house, and also decorated gingerbread cookies.
This morning Henry helped me make puppy chow to take to the neighbors while Nathan and Jack went Christmas shopping. He was a great helper, and discovered he loves chex, maybe even more than the puppy chow itself. Jack helped me deliver the goodies after lunch and he told one of the neighbors, “Merry Christmas. Here’s some dog chow for you.”
