Tomorrow!

Tomorrow is December 1st!! This means a lot of things!

Maelie will start opening up the surprises on her advent calendar.

It's also extreme baking time!

I am also wishing for snow!

My goal for December is to post every single day!! The big countdown to Christmas :) Since some things are borderline crafts (for my craft blog) and here for my family blog, I will mainly keep it all on this one.

Stay tuned for fun stuff!!

Maelie the baker

Maelie and I officially started the Christmas baking! We don't actually save it for Christmas. It is distributed as we go along... but there is just something about handing out cookies all the time! i LOVE it!



This is a tried and true recipe from last year... Martha Stewart's Molasses spice cookies.

Ho Ho Ho!

Today was the day ! Santa was at Carlingwood mall so we stopped by for a visit! 'Tis the season :)

oh Christmas tree....

It's finally that time of the year! I am late compared to last year.



Nighty night....

Stay Put

This is how you get your child to stay put.

Hockey night in our living room

Maelie used her new little blackboard to let us know what she is up to tonight

Getting ready for picture day

Today is picture day at school. Thankfully, whatever Maelie had yesterday is gone this morning after a nice 12 hour rest!



I am sure the class picture may be missing a few faces due to illnesses this week. Apparently there are about 6 kids missing a day!

Time change

This is what the time change does to a little girl at 6:00 pm on a Sunday night.
