Capsules

I found some sponge capsules in my Christmas stuff.  You put them in warm water and then the gel capsule dissolves and a sponge starts to take shape.  These were all Christmas theme ones!   She loved them and so did Sage!

Christmas Party II

The same day we had Sage's Christmas party we had one at Quinn's class.  When we walked in they had reindeer antlers for the kids to wear.  Quinn only had hers on for about 2 minutes.  Just long enough for me to snap a few cute pictures.  We did a really fun Christmas plate with her handprint on it.  Quinn was not a fan of having her hand covered in paint to make the handprint on the plate.  We then did crafts and had circle time.  It was a fun party!

 Quinn and her friend Lukas from class!

She was loving the crafts!

Christmas party at school

I was able to go to school for Sage's Christmas party!  It was lots of fun!  They decorated gingerbread houses, had cookie, made crafts and sang a song for us!  They even had a gingerbread house for Quinn to decorate.  It was a fun party, we did have to leave a little early as Quinn was ready to go!

Another present!

Quinn got another birthday present in the mail, this one from Mimi and Pop-Pop.  As you can see -  she had fun opening her present!

Sage's Gingerbread House

Sage got to do her gingerbread house a few nights after Quinn did hers.  She was really into it this year!  She was very excited to pipe her own icing and put the candy on all by herself!

Turned Around

This girl got turned around in her carseat and is now facing forward.  She giggled a little bit when she got in the car the first time but that is all the reaction we got!   I thought she would be more excited to sit facing forward.  She did however really like driving around to see Christmas lights for the first time after she was turned around.  She kept yelling "lights" each time we saw a house with Christmas lights on!

Christmas Cookies

These girls were very excited to try the first batch of Christmas cookies I made.  I made 3 different cookies this year, we only have a few left! 

These cookies have a hershey kiss in the middle and Quinn went straight for the chocolate and popped the whole kiss in her mouth.  Smart girl goes for the chocolate first!

Baking with Quinn

We made lots of Christmas cookies this season and it was Quinn's first time baking with Mommy!  She loved it as you can see from that big smile in the picture below!  Her favorite part was turning on the mixer and then turning it up fast!

Letter to Santa

We were finally able to mail out Sage's letter to Santa.  She had written the letter and then it was pouring rain for days!  One afternoon after school it wasn't raining and we got to mail her letter!
