We bought this awesome stuff from Michaels called Air Dry Clay. It is a great texture. Not messy like playdough, but very pliable. Easton made this fun Christmas theme display. And then I made him smash it up so we could keep using the clay. Merry Christmas!
I'm entering my life of 'lasts'. This is my last child to lose his first tooth!
Xander was so excited because Declan lost his first tooth last summer.
I have a very cute and crazy primary class. We decided to have a Christmas party to celebrate us surviving all those long hours of class. We decorated gingerbread houses, played games, they ran around a lot, then the boys watched a show while the girls braided yarn.
Xander is a kid of many talents. He can blow bubbles, whistle, blow up balloons, and control tons of his facial muscles - eye brows, ears, tongue tricks - it really is quite impressive.
The twins made these during preschool last year. They are so cute, but it's time for them to go.
The kids always complain about finding their old projects in the garbage, so I better take these straight outside!
Merry Christmas!
This year, David's mom and brother spent the holiday with us. That meant constant entertainment for the kids, and time to work on projects for me!
Declan excavating his dinosaur from his birthday.
(after a half hour and a tiny hole, he got a real hammer, went to the front porch, and made short work out of this beast!)
I have no idea why we have this picture, but I decided it was worth keeping to document David's favorite clock. We bought this clock after buying our first townhouse with $100 of savings we made from catching an error on the paperwork. This clock is David's prized possession, the most complemented thing in our house. He may value it more than the children, seriously.

Our homemade gingerbread houses. Everyone does their own design every year.
Declan enjoys eating his day after day.
