After a week of sickness (both me and the kids), 2 prescriptions per kid, a box of cough drops for Mom, and a lot of hacking coughs & snotty noses, I think we're finally starting to get better. At least the kids are!
David perked up considerably to finish the Christmas Cookie Bake-a-thon today. We finished baking the chocolate chip cookies, mint reindeer patties, pumpkin pie tarts, and a full size pumpkin pie (which is in the freezer waiting for Christmas). We just have one batch of peanut butter cookies left to make to finish up our neighbors' cookie boxes.
We're going to try to read a Christmas book every day from now until Christmas. Today's book was The Animals' Christmas Eve (Little Golden Book). It's a really cute book where the animals are recounting the night Baby Jesus was born from the point of view of the animals in the stable that night. Also works in some counting. David enjoyed the book and asked for it again. I highly recommend this book for your little ones. It would make a great Christmas Eve gift, if your family does that.
