Thanksgiving Week!

We didn't have much of a Thanksgiving. ALL of us where sick the week of Thanksgiving and we spent it in the confines of our house :( So, when it started snowing, we mustered up all the energy we had and took the little guy out to have some fun in the white, fluffy stuff.  He loved playing in it we even tried to teach him to make a snow angel. What he really wanted to do was clean the cars. He went around to every single car in the drive way and wiped off the snow. Silly boy. He really is the happiest when he is outside.

My parents brought back a nativity babushka from Italy for Brian. He loves  playing with it and it is cute to hear him try to pronounce Babushka. He will play with it for long periods of time, but often loses the smallest doll (Jesus). He  goes running around the house shouting "Where's Jesus?"

We got him a little tree to decorate and one that he can plug in every night. He loves going over and redecorating the tree many times a day.  

We have done a few Christmas Preschool activities. The first one was a letter recognition game where I made a Christmas Tree with all the letters written out on it. Brian had to find alphabet  sticker with the same letter and match it. We have done a few letters each day. The other one is him putting together a snowman.

 

Decorating the Christmas Mantel with Dad. I love his concentration face. I used to put help my Yai Yai put together the same Christmas village as a kid.

 

  

We started a fun tradition where we wrap up 25 Christmas books and he reads one every night. He loves this tradition so far.

Visiting Santa! He told him he wanted a Dump Truck for Christmas!
