So let's see what have we been up to. . .
Monday 18th - Maci had her last ice skating lesson for the season and is excited to pick back up with advanced snowplow after the new year.
Tuesday 19th - Lazy family day at home after a long day at work and I started to come down with a cold - darn India flights!
Wednesday 20th - Connor had his last gym class before the holiday break and he had a blast with momma while daddy and Maci colored and played in the lobby.
These 2 have great imaginations

Thursday 21st - Connor Turns 2! We had busy days at work and school but couldn't wait to get home for Connor's birthday dinner at Noodles and Co followed by some presents and cake! This little guy started to get in the hang of the birthday thing just when it was time for it to end - man how did he already turn 2?!
Christmas Sweater Day & Birthday in One - Score!
Birth, 1 year and 2 year - UGH So Big!
Sissy had to have fun on his birthday too!

Friday Dec 22nd - I worked from home and headed for a hair apt pre holidays at 345p. Clint brought the kiddos home and enjoyed pizza before I got home, after a quick stop for stocking stuffers at Lush. We had a pretty lazy family night with movies and cuddles - I am still fighting my cold and now Maci needs to blow her nose uh oh!
These Proud Girlies made a people "Flower" haha
Getting Excited for Christmas Weekend!
Saturday Dec 23rd - What a wonderfully lazy family day at home. SVO (retired Cargill friend) swung by in the afternoon with his usual way too kind gifts for the kiddos and wine/beer for the adults. It was so great to see him before he headed to AZ for the winter. We then watched all sorts of football - sadly Toledo decided NOT to show up for their bowl game BUT the Vikings are still rolling!
Morning Goofball!

Sunday 24th - Christmas Eve!!! I am as excited as the kiddos! Christmas is so fun with lil ones! We started the day with some lazy breakfast, cartoons and football. This quickly turned into afternoon Christmas mass and our Benihana 2nd annual tradition. The kids LOVED the Benihana "tricks" and food. We quickly got home in time for feeding reindeers and then off to bed for Santa to come!

Monday 25th - Christmas!! Yay the best day of the year! Santa sure didn't disappoint and neither did our kiddos reactions to all of their fun gifts! We had a long day of playing and watching Christmas movies before we decided to get dressed and head out to Park Tavern for dinner/bowling. It was so much fun that this may become the newest annual tradition!
