Surprise

Oliver came home this morning.  Mommy had a surprise waiting for him!  

Oliver's surprise!

Mommy threw some Cars Mac n' Cheese in there

to make it even more fun!

Mittens!

Santa Socks!

Beanie.....the rest is a surprise.  To be continued tomorrow....

We also went for a short walk.

Oliver got to ride in the stroller with a baby.

We saw our favorite trees!

(Branches growing together.)

Oliver problem solving, the sun was in their faces.  He used

a blanket to block out the sun!

Now we are off to Grammie's soon!  (Mommy hopes to see more of the moon over there.)  It is going to be full tomorrow, and it is pretty full here already but the clouds are starting to cover it...

Happy Friday!

Donut Wednesday

Donut Wednesday!  Yippee!!!

Looking for his donut!

Eureka!

Still no tables.

Mr. Pouty 

Mommy's coffee.  (Still the perfect combination.)

Mommy's donut hole.  (Snow with a tree, perfect.)

Oliver's festive donut.

Oliver being a gentleman, he always holds

the door open for Mommy.  But this morning he held

it wide open for her since she had her arms full.

(Mommy likes gentlemen.)

Oliver is off with his Daddy after school!  See you Friday morning babe!

Cookies

Oliver is always really cute when Mommy picks him up at preschool!

Showing Mommy their class box.

Water Pinecones.

He always stops by his cubby to show Mommy his

personal possessions.  He had to put some of

his Chapstick on while we were there.  Cuteness.

Wheatgrass Tuesday.  (Yum.)

The other view.  (Yummy.)

We made sugar cookies tonight!

We listened to this CD.  Best ever.  Of course

Mommy got it at Hallmark.  Mommy loves this

song.  ("I've been an angel all year, Santa baby...

so hurry down the chimney tonight.")  We are a little 

excited about Santa here!

Baking supplies.

Recipe.  

Someone is excited!

Silly Oliver watching Mommy mix everything up.  

We had fun with the music!  (Mommy likes the

song in the background, for some reason it reminds

her of a fun word, serendipitous.)  

Mommy had Oliver put the cook book back

in the cooking section.

He figured out where it went!  We will work on 

putting them back the right way!  Cuteness!

 Smiling for Mommy and ready to decorate!

Oliver's decoration.

Eating his cookie!

Mommy's silly snowman.

Decorating, eating, listening to Winter Wonderland....

Our messy, some bottoms burned, fun yummy sugar cookies!

Walk

Today we were able to go on a nice walk with some of our daycare babies.  Oliver did a good job walking.  We enjoyed the cool beautiful weather!

Getting a running start.

Still running.

Slowing down.

Slowing way down.

He got his energy back and was racing 

towards the street.  Mommy had to yell

at him to stop!  (He is still learning

to read signs, we'll get there soon enough...)

Happy Monday!!!

Decorations and Dancing

Oliver came home this evening.  Mommy showed him where all of our Christmas decorations were displayed!

Animals on the nature shelf.  Oliver broke a fox

off the fox ornament.  Tears.

Harry (Right where he belongs...)

Fitness Queen and Chocolate Queen. 

(Balance.)

Santa, Mrs. Claus's Chair, Santa's Chair, and his silly

bed.  (Mommy would like a chair like Mrs. Claus, please.)

So, the other day Oliver broke about 3 of Mommy's ornaments.

He was playing with his and all of a sudden he said in a real

sad sad voice.  "Mommy, my tree doesn't have the Piston

cup anymore."  Oh, poor baby!  Now he is really careful

with the ornaments!  

After Mommy showed him where the rest of our decorations were, we danced!

Mommy's socks were really good for dancing.  But

also really really good for sliding...

Too much fun.  (Beware, you might not want to watch,

Mommy gets really loud in the video

and she fell on her bum.)  Oliver thought that was pretty funny!

Oliver made a snowman!  Silly kid!

December

Happy December!  Mommy wanted to share her calendars again!

"Still the stars are shining and still we spread our

little seeds of PEACE."  (Peace, nice.)

Masha.  (Mommy still has to show you her favorite

painting.  Soon.)

Daycare windows.
