Well, let's see.... A's 5th b day was yesterday :( we celebrated it on Sunday at my mom's apt in SI. The kids had a great time, she decorated it for her with balloons and happy b day motifs. She got her cake she wanted and lots of presents. They spent the day playing together...
Saturday my husband's family came over and gave the kids their presents and hung out for a few hours. We had a very good time laughing and just being together. The kids played with their cousins, drew and finger painted.
We celebrated Christmas on Dec 24th with a big dinner with my mom. This is the European way, have a nice dinner, and then open presents. The kids love this part lol. They all got a lot of very nice presents, including Legos and Webkinz and other fun things. I got my socks like I asked :).
F spent the rest of the night assembling his 850 piece Lego. My mom spent the night and we woke up to a pancake breakfast and just hung out here the rest of the day till she went home. It was so nice and peaceful.
Now we are back to home schooling, F and I are reading The 21 balloons by William Pene Du Bois and doing math as well as some history today. J will be doing some more reading from her Bob books and lots of playing with her sister.
All 3 kids have been helping around the house a lot the last few weeks, and we have been compiling things so donate to the local charity. We got a big Toysrus bag full of toys and some clothes and DH will drop it off this week. The less in my house the better.
