the twelve days of christmas...

hey everyone (mom)! you are going to get a photo treat today! i finally uploaded recent pictures...

last weekend our neighborhood christmas party was held and charlie was napping so just jack and i headed over... he loved playing all the games, and to my surprise, told santa he wanted "a McDonalds, a cookie and pretend cupcakes" from him for Christmas.



after the party, while charlie was still napping, jack and i made gingerbread houses. he LOVES to be my little kitchen helper. he had a hard time not eating all the candy, but had such a blast and was so proud of his gingerbread skills...






We had our first big snowfall of the season recently and Jack insisted on posing in his superhero poses- whatever that means!
Charlie got his first haircut tonight. He loved sitting the car but had enough by the end. He looks so less baby to me now!
Last day of school before break tomorrow! yeah! Then we're off to Timber Ridge in Lake Geneva for a couple days to chill before Christmas.



charlie before his haircut...




and after... (after haircut, and after jack pushed him in the new truck he just got)
