Jingle Bells Jingle Bells
Carter and Bentley are nearly done school before the winter break and I am certain I am more excited than they are! I am soooooo in need of a break from dressing three kids in their snow pants, hats, boots, gloves, jackets just to take a two minute walk to the school and back twice a day. It takes me longer to get them ready and out the door than it does to physically walk to the school. Im excited for a break. Im sure 3 days in when the boys won't stop fighting and nagging each other I will have changed my mind, but for now.. just two more days until Christmas break!
Both boys had their (ADORABLE!!) Christmas concerts. Bentleys was at the very beginning of December and Carter's was just last week. They both did so good and were as adorable as ever! All the cute songs and little actions.. I was in heaven watching them!
We also wrote our annual Christmas letters to Santa. Penny's included "baby... babies... babies... lots of babies" lol I think she wants baby things. Bentley's and Carter's was similar. They both really want Lego, Ninjago Lego, Pokemon and anything reptiles. Santa will be very happy this year that all those things are in reach.
After school today the boys sat down and made each of their teachers a Christmas Card. We've had a bit of a struggle this year with Carter's teacher but this little boy has a heart of gold and said he wants to make him a Christmas thing. I asked what his teacher likes and he said "Well... he really likes coffee.." so we got him a Tim Hortons Card!
Bentley and I went to David's tea (knowing one of his teachers likes tea) so I tried to convince him to get them each a little thing of Christmas tea but he had his heart set on these adorable mugs for his two teachers. I try really hard to stay clear of mugs for teachers.. because lets be honest.. I'm sure they have 100 mugs from students but looks like this year.. they are getting one more from Bentley.
Its cute how these boys really learn about what their teachers like and have their own little opinions about what to get them.
And as for this little sweetie pie. She has been my main sidekick these days. She is FULL of the Christmas spirit, singing "Jingle Bells" all day every day. Its pretty funny since the only words she sings is "Jingle Bells" and "Wayyyyyyy" but the tune is right on lol!
I am so excited for the fun we are going to have in the next two weeks for Christmas. I am a little nervous about feeling the anxiety from how busy it will be and I hope I can keep my sanity in check but hey, its coming either way.. so buckle up and try to enjoy it!
