Christmas Baking

Every year I do a lot of baking. I squeezed it all into one day this year. It made for a long day but hopefully everyone enjoyed them!

My favorite cookies! Peanut butter cup cookies! Yummy

A new recipe, oatmeal spice cookies. Not sure if they were as well liked.

Violet's gymnastics performance at break the barri

Violet had an end of the year gymnastics performance with her gymnastics class. She wasn't fond of the loud noise, so there's not much to it. But she loves going!

Timmys Sing Along

Tim was still in the "baby" portion of the daycare classes so we just sat, listened to music, and sang songs this year.

Violet sings Snowflake

Violet performed with her daycare class. This one might be more shaky! Warning! Violet is in the back in the middle to left side.

Ashton If you want to make a snowman

Ashton When Santa Smiles

Ashton had his kindergarten performance early in December. It's hard to video record and watch at the same time!

Catching Up - Ashton's 5 year Growth Chart

At Ashton's 5 year well check, he was 39 1/2 pounds and 43 inches tall. This puts him at the 25-50th%ile for weight and just about the 50th%ile for height. This puts his BMI at the 25-50th%ile for age. His eye sight is 20/20. Let's home he got his Dad's eyes, because his Mommy's eye sight is not so good! Ashton is in kindergarten and loves to read his BOB books. He loves to play his new Wii U games. His favorite game is Lego Batman. He has so many different interests in toys and frequently bounces back and forth. He loves his Army stuff which has been a favorite for awhile, including all his Nerf guns. He loves to do arts and crafts, build his Legos, and play outside.
