Christmas in January

My mother and Lothar got in yesterday and we had our Christmas with them. The family room looked just like Christmas morning with all the gifts my mother got the kids, and us! We left the tree up just for them. But we took it down today!

Playing Dress Up

The kids love to dress up in these fun costumes I find at yard sales!

Dr. Wendy

Michael went to the dentist last week. Her name is Dr. Wendy. She was wearing a face mask like they do now. The other day he put this scarf on over his nose and said, "I'm Dr. Wendy" - too cute.

My little cheerleader

Mallory had her first Upward Cheerleading game this past week. All the girls did great! I am one of her coaches so am loving the entire experience. I hope Mallory is. Mommy was a cheerleader so was really sort of pushing this cheerleading thing. She seems to like it but we will see. The girls cheer for the Upward Basketball games. It is all just a lot of fun!

Michael's a preschooler!

Michael started a one day a week preschool class yesterday at the same school that Mallory attends. There are only 4 kids in his class and Mrs. Ballantyne is his teacher. We love her! She was Mallory's teacher last year. He only goes for three hours so it's not too much time for Mommy to miss him. He walked out with Mallory's class for pick-up. He did fine when we dropped him off and we got a note saying he had a great first day!

Michael and Paul happened to match yesterday so I had to take some pictures...
