My broken foot healed, we celebrated a fun Halloween with friends in St. Michael, a nice Thanksgiving, and four Christmas celebrations. Christmas Eve we had a big snowstorm but still made it to the Children's Mass. Grandma B. postponed (not canceled!) our family celebration on Christmas Day, but most of us got together the day after. We gathered in Wisconsin for New Year's and Toad stayed up to see the ball drop.
The rest of winter has been filled with snowpants and boots, soccer clinics (which Toad hates and has turned him against soccer completely!) and entertaining. Both kids have been doing very well in school. We hosted another successful Super Bowl party (on a much smaller scale this year), and last week I hosted Book Club with a Tudor-inspired feast for the month's selection, The Other Boleyn Girl. Toad was thrilled with the Olympics and we spent a lot of time watching together. He also set up speed-skating and skiing courses in the living room. Birdy and I have been doing lots of baking and crafts. She loves to draw and color.
Next up: Spring. The dirty snow is melting, leaving mushy, sopping mud puddles behind. Every year at this time I wish for a bigger mud room!
Birdy turns three on Sunday and we're having a fabulous Fancy Nancy extravaganza to celebrate!
My little rock stars
