Wacky Wednesday #2 & other stuff

If you didn't already know, the house we live in is mostly furnished (beds, towels, basic kitchen stuff, etc, etc).  We haven't met him, but we kindly refer to him as "Dan-the-man".   Dan-the-man apparently hired an interior decorator to outfit the place and I would say that over she has great taste.  But what is up with these forks?

To start with, they only have three tines.... and then the curly que on the end.  Really?  They crack us up (we are obviously easily entertained these days).

In other news for the week, here is a quick summary in pictures.  We made these wonderful Christmas cookies.  I frosted them and Elijah did all the sprinkles by himself.  I was especially impressed with the candy cane.  As we were finishing them up, we saw our neighbor Pat outside, so she came over and enjoyed cookies and tea with us.  Yah for meeting neighbors!

The moving boxes have been a lot of fun.  If you can't make out the photo, I can interpret.  One circle with a person is for Elijah- meaning he is allowed in the box.  The other circles/people all have lines drawn through them.  They represent Mommy, Daddy and Gavin.  We are not allowed to play in the box.  Just so that is all clear.

 We went to Christmas light display over the weekend and found Santa!  It was after G's bedtime... thus the stylish PJ's.

Elijah had a Holiday program for school today.  Love the hats and scarves, huh?  His wonderful teacher made them all for the kids.  Elijah is in the back row.... kind of looking at the camera.

Kids performing Jingle Bells.  Santa came to watch.  :)

Elijah in his adorable hat and scarf.  The kids did each sew on their own red button.  His preschool is pretty cool.

The boys with Santa after the program.  This was kind of funny.... when I went to pick up Gavin he had gotten his hand all wrapped up in Santa's beard and was nearly pulling it off.  Thankfully disaster was avoided but it was a bit dicey there for a minute.

And last by not least..... Gavin has mastered the "butt scoot" and makes it across the floor in a sitting position to the chairs to use them a teething toy.   I need to get a video of the "butt scoot" uploaded.  It is pretty funny.  :-)  He can't make it from the army crawl position to the sitting position yet.

Have a great day friends!  :)
