December is here!!!! Did I mention on the 27th my girl became a big 21 month old!!!???!!! Crazy how big she is!
We went and got a tree 🙂 the day after thanksgiving (and on her 21st birthday haha).
She has LOVED the lights!
We have been trying to make the holidays a little extra special for her. We plan on hunting for all kinds of decorations and lights around the city!
And mommy is trying to do crafts with her!
So far we have made a few Christmassy items (remember these were all made with toddlers help)…
We’ve been trying to have fun 🙂 she even insisted on having breakfast with her bears by the tree the other day!
We went to the mall to look at their fun decorations and do some light shopping… She has a wish list on Amazon but I’m trying to do less commercial gifts and more meaningful things. Of course she is a kid and will get toys but I’d like to make her some stuff too. I just found a neat pattern for doll wipes and diapers so I’m going to attempt to sew a few things. I’m a newbie so I’m not going to expect perfection (or so I keep telling myself).
The season has only begun so who knows what is next! I’d like to create some kind of scavenger hunt for us like… A cactus decorated with lights, a unique Christmas tree, I don’t know what else but I’m going to put some thought into it! We only have a few days left 😉
Ps…. I still need addresses for Christmas cards. I don’t know who has moved and who is in the same place. Please just assume that I don’t have your address because I also have a case of the mommy brain! I’ll be sending them out in waves this year because everything seems to be taking a little longer than usual to get done.
