I love Christmas

I love Christmas time!!! I love decorating the house and celebrating all month. I love how happy everyone is!!

Our first Christmas party this year was my Mothers of Multiples club party. I love this party every year!!! It is so much fun!!
Here is Ryan making her apron. (I know, great idea right!!)
Connor

Brady's done already...
They had these cute little antlers there so everyone had to take a pair. This was right up Connor's alley. He loves anything that brings him attention.
Brady on the other hand....
LOL....I love it. He looks tortured. Like "why are you DOING this to me?"

Every year Santa comes and gives everyone an early Christmas present. We don't celebrate Santa, but the kids still enjoy it.
They each got their present and loved it!! The twins got color wonder which is like gold to them. Garrett got an dinosaur bone excavation kit and Ryan got the Littlest Pet Shop. We ate and hung out. It's nice going some where with other multiples where people don't feel like they can touch your kids like a petting zoo because they're so unique. Or people are constantly saying "Boy you sure have your hands full." I just roll my eyes when people say that now, like yeah you're the first person to ever notice.....thanks a lot. I also really appreciate the advice I get from my friends whose kids are older and have already been where mine are now!

Garrett's even found some friends there!!! Trevor and Donovan were on his baseball team!!
Last Thursday was Connor and Brady's Christmas party at school. They were so cute!! They painted icecream cones with green icing to make them look like Christmas trees. Then covered them in sprinkles and decorated with mini M&Ms. A HUGE mess, but so cute and so much fun!! Great idea Mrs. Jennifer!!

Friday the twins don't have preschool so we all went to Garrett and Ryan's Christmas parties!!

Making Christmas ornaments.
The twins managed to weasel themselves into a cupcake.

The twins managed to eat there too......
I promise I do feed them. They just eat a LOT!
Garrett's teacher had all the kids do a book exchange. It was such a neat idea. Garrett got a Encyclopedia Brown book and had it finished by the next day!! He loves to read.

Then Friday night we took the kids to Peachtree Academy for Parent's night out while we had a little Christmas party at our house. I had been looking forward to this ALL WEEK!!! Here are some pics from the night but for a full explanation click here . And trust me you want the full story...it was so much fun!!!

This month Garrett was named Student of the Month!!!!
Each of the teachers wrote a paragraph about the student they nominated for Student of the month. Here is Garrett's:

The December student of the month for Mrs. Roton's class is Garrett Williams. Garrett is always on task. He is full of self motivation. He loves AR and reads lots of books and takes an AR test every day! His behavior is wonderful and he is a great role model for his classmates. Garrett is quiet, but witty, and he makes me smile everyday!! I love teaching Garrett! Mrs. Roton.

Way to go Garrett. We love you!!

Wow, has it really been that long???

Wow, so it's been a long time since I posted. Once we got back from Disney things just picked up in their usual whirlwind like we'd never left. So much has happened I think I'll ease back in slowly with just Disney pics for this post.

I'll start with Thanksgiving. I was off for Thanksgiving this year so we stayed here, my mom came and we had a nice quiet Thanksgiving. Then Mom and I went shopping on the day after Thanksgiving and got some GREAT deals!!!

Here is Connor and Brady dressed as pilgrims for their Thanksgiving program. When I walked into the sanctuary at their preschool Connor said "Mommy I knew you come, I knew you come!!" So sweet.
Connor loved it.....

Brady......not so much.....
They were so cute though!! They sang us two songs.


After the program we went to the fellowship hall to eat a lunch that the kids helped prepare. Vegetable soup, cornbread, crackers, and dessert. Connor and Brady were so proud of their meal!!
