And Then There Was Snow

We had another pajama weekend.  Ok, most weekends are pajama weekends if we aren't going anywhere, but this one was fun because the kids mainly wore their Christmas jammies and Svea loves to announce that! "I wearing Christmas jammies.  Christmas is coming", she likes to say. We had homemade chicken alfredo and chocolate brownies, and made "Christmas Trees".  Both kids have a mild cold.  You can see Kieran snuggling with his puppy in the swing one afternoon.  His little cheeks have been bright pink all weekend. 

 Besides wanting to be held a little bit more he's still been content and happy.

Making our Christmas trees was a hit

 Or course the coolest part was sneaking some tastes here and there!

Here she is today snacking on one after I put her hair up in a ponytail on top of her head.  It only took two years, but her hair is really taking off and her bangs are always in her eyes. And then, the snow hit today.  Wow, to go from nothing to 8+ inches is a wake-up call:)  I already have a two hour delay from school tomorrow that Dan thinks will be called off entirely.  We'll see if I get so lucky.  I have testing for the next two weeks so I wouldn't mind another day home with the babes and my husband! I'll try to take a picture of all of the snow.

I also made some of my own potpourri.  It smells amazing and is supposed to remind you of Christmas and it delivers!  I found it on pinterest.  It has oranges, cranberries, cinnamon sticks, cloves, and a dash of nutmeg simmering low on the stove.  The best part is it can last for up to a week.  I just put it in a container in the fridge until I'm really do use it again!

I love LOVE the lights, music, and activities that get you in the Christmas spirit.
