Day-to-day.

It's the holiday season
which means there is a lot to do
around the community for Christmas festivities.
To start the season right....Brock completely moved into Adler's room.
His clothes are in the closet, his blankets are on the bed,
& his toys are on the shelf.
He loves being a 'big boy' like his brother.
And now we have room for the baby!

I always remembered the Schwan's Holiday Ice Cream Tin
that grandma Pearl always had during the holiday's.
So needless to say, when the Schwan's man stopped by
I ordered the last tin in his truck.
It is spendy & it is worth every bite
thinking of grandma!
(plus Luke spoils me and adds snickers or butterfinger chunks
to my ice cream!)


Brock is now potty trained....but just like his brother
when he was learning, the #2 part of the whole thing
can be a little tricky.
His brother sure helps out with his encouragement
& bringing in books & toys
to keep him sitting on the potty until the job is done! 
And if Adler is going to the bathroom
his brother is right behind giving the same support! haha





Playing around the house
with NO clothes on.
Like everyday!

I barely get clothes on them to go to the Y in the morning
& as soon as we get home
the clothes are OFF.
Ohhh well.
(So if you ever come over, you'll find them looking like this!)


The boys put the nativity scene together this year.
We got to talk about Christmas story & every one involved.
How Mary rode the donkey,
the wise men came on the camel,
the shepards & their sheep,
ohhhh they loved the story
& what a good story it is! 


We spent the morning at the Y decorating cookies,
making crafts, watching movies, & visiting with Santa!


Santa was actually Doug, Adler's swim instructor
who does resemble Santa.  It was so funny.
Adler had no clue!




On another night Luke and I took the boys to the library
& we decorated gingerbread houses.
By the time we got home there was NO candy left on their homes!
