Earning My Award

Jill posted that I get the Mother Of The Year Award.
So the last couple of days I have been trying to earn my award. I have been spending more time with the kids. We did crafts, we made Christmas Trees out of construction paper, and hand wreath. We also made snowflakes.We had a lot of fun. They are so cute.
Brady kept turning the glue up to make it really tall, and it seemed no matter how many times I told him that it would work when it was low he didn't believe me. Brady's tree is really decorated. He not only did the little red paper that I cut out for him but he used all the green scraps from the cut out of the tree.

Raef's Christmas tree is really cute also he controlled his colors on the tree more then Brady. He kept himself busy while I was cutting decorations out. He was telling me stories and singing Christmas songs. He is so smart. I can't believe how big he is.

Today Rob and I helped the boys make their Christmas Hand Reef's. It was fun watching Rob trace Brady's hand while I traced Raef's. It has really been so much fun being able to spend this time with them.

I'm glad you had so much fun. You'll have to post pictures of their artwork. I would be fun to see it. And I'm glad that Rob participated too. I'm sure the kids appreciated the quality time that they got to spend with Mom and Dad. It'll be something they'll remember for a long time.

You silly- You don't have to earn it. You already did! he he! Post those pictures soon. They sound so cute! I do my stuff at the table and Ally and Belle join me all the time for their creative time. They make letters for people out of stamps and stickers and draw pictures. Most of the time they go to me and I put like 3 on the fridge a day! It is nice to know that it is still quality time with them and I am also getting things done that I love. Like the Christmas cards I was working on everytime we talked this past week!!!
