Christmas Pictures


It was such a fun weekend for the Eyestones! As previously mentioned, her birthday(Friday the 14th) it was cold and rainy, We camped out at home for a family day. However, Saturday, after snoozing in a little we got up and dressed for some fun. We invited 2 little friends for some fun at Leapin Lizards(I love Groupon deals!!! This is our favorite way to take in a date night http://www.groupon.com/deals/studio-movie-grill-18?pt=aUNAA9zAAAACh8udUOJrn7teXMheV3VmV) .
 


 They played for a couple of hours and had a blast! Riley is the little boy I keep a few times a week. He and my 2 have become adorable little friends. Mia and Lorelai are a couple months apart and are way too stinkin cute together. After we finished there, we stopped at a bookstore to pick up a couple of books for the book exchange at the Christmas party I will tell about in a minute. We finished the evening at Golden Corral. The best place for a family that includes a picky eater! It's the one place we can go and Finn actually leaves full and happy.

Sunday was the day of our playgroup Christmas party. We had a nice turn out with all of our favorite friends. It was potluck, so there were plenty of yummy snacks! The kids all had a fun time playing together. We built a fire for s'mores, played outside, took family pictures and had a book exchange for the kids. Finn and Lorelai loved the party and we left with free family pictures. Great time all around.
Finns first time on the trampoline..he mostly just sat there.
 
 

By last night the kids were exhausted, so today was a quiet day at home. Tomorrow may be the same but I will probably be creating a fun activity for them. I have a ton of Christmas window clings I bought on clearance last year. I think I may let the kids go nuts with them and our big sliding glass patio door. I would also like to make a fun activity to talk about shapes with Finn. Or numbers, he has been showing interest in trying to count to 5 and since all our learning activities are led but what he is interested in, that option may win. Any fun suggestions? Does your kid enjoy counting anything in particular? Do they have a fun number song they like to sing?
Lorelai refused to smile in any of these but I love it anyways.
