Grace & I made heart-shaped sugar cookies and I monogrammed them for each kid. Who knew how exciting it is to a 5/6-year-old to see your initials in shimmery red icing could truly be?! OK, I got a couple, "WOW! It has my initials!" comments. But really to a Mom, any recognition of the extra mile is a freakin' academy award!!!
Grace also got her progress report from school. She was tested on what she has learned throughout the year, as well as accessed on her social skills. Well, we are BEAMING with pride! The only thing she really fell behind in was knowing her phone number and address by heart. She used to know it when she wore her ID bracelet. But she lost it somewhere in her room. Sooooo....this week is winter break. We will be working on drilling that very important knowledge into her sweet little skull. Enjoy pictures of the festivities.
Jesse had his 9-month check up on Tuesday. The week before, he had the *flu*. He had actually lost a couple pounds, so right now our Beef Cake of a baby is more like Tofurky! But we are feeding him more & boosting that BMI up! He is still healthy & happy so that's what really matters to us. He also tried carrots & LOVED them. But not as much as he LOVES snuggling his big sis!!!
