Advent 2014 Part 2

The second half of the month we had more Advent fun that started with St. Lucia Day.

Timothy has two very helpful big sisters.

A barbie ballerina, woohoo.

Rainbow Loom - time to make some bracelets!

Timothy - do you have a little car?

Vroom, vroom...

This thing is pretty cool!

Charlotte is definitely our biggest bacon eater!

Nail and makeup party while for two 

                            

Can I help with the vanilla extract?

That is a lot of cookies!

Time to decorate!

Sprinkles are definitely the best part.

All done and ready to share.

                                       

A random dinner during the third week in Advent. The girls like to turn all the lights off so we needed to add more candles to the table so we could see what we are eating!

A fresh lemonade stand in our dining room, and it only cost a quarter!!

The girls lobbied for another makeup party, but this time Daddy had to be involved too.

Nicely done ladies. The beard really adds to the look... :)

My turn and I got my hair done too after Charlotte picked out my outfit!!

Time to make the mock cake.

These girls are going to be big enough to do this on their own in not too long.

Charlotte's turn to roll out the dough.

The Nutcracker Ballet - the first half I held Timothy and he was a squirmy, talky baby so we walked around the school and missed the performance; for the second half Daddy held him and he slept through it all. Lesson learned - give the baby to Daddy in the beginning!

Timothy's new favorite activity. Anytime he is quiet it is an alarm bell to find him right away!!

Parade of Lights with one sleeper.

She woke up for the end.

Time to hit the sledding hill again!

We think it might be time to invest in a second sled instead of waiting so long to take turns since the hill is pretty long!

Sweet Baby!

The two of us had a fantastic run after this photo was taken.

Hot chocolate in the car - a great way to end the day!

My turn to drive!
