We have had TV/internet problems since last Thursday! I'm not a happy girl when I need to get online and nothing works. So here I am Monday morning waiting for Brighthouse. The good news is that our TV and internet now work, the bad news is we can't get to anything on our DVR. Oh well, it's not the end of the world but dissapointing none the less.
On to our most important business. The Advent calendar!
Here is the proof of how tired one child can be at 6:45am, not even the idea of what's behind curtain number 5 can't make her pick her head up. I so wanted to just pick her up and take her back to bed. Oh well, we have a nice long 2 week break coming up, she can sleep then.
I love these anticipation pictures...no matter what they find in the pockets the excitement builds.
Candy tree ring pops!! Can you tell how excited Anna Kate is to have hers!! She actually rolled over a little to inspect her candy.
This is one of those rare days when they forgot in the morning to open up that days pocket.
So after bath time they came out to open it up. I scrubbed and scrubbed Elizabeth's face and could not remove the lovely kool aid mustache.
Yay necklaces!!! They did love them but I didn't do a good job of capturing them being happy.
Day number 7! Early morning time again. Can you tell Anna Kate is not much of a morning person?
Those eyes are hardly open.
Yay! Puzzles from Cancun! These were pretty cool. I had a good time showing them how to take them apart and put them back together.
Day number 8, we had help from Julie!
Yay! More PEZ candy! To not be mean I just took the candy away until later. There was a little bit of sadness but I figure it would save us from bickering later on.
Anna Kate sure is getting into this opening up the pockets!
It's wonderful when they have fine motor skills, haha
Ahhhh Silly putty!! Anna Kate is so excited and really has no idea what it is.
I had fun playing with the silly putty and showing them all of the fun stuff I used to do with it when I was a kid.
Day number 10!
So sad I don't have an after shot. I think this is the day Daddy took the picture.
At least he got a before shot, I shouldn't be picky.
Day number 11!
Sunday morning and everyone slept in (that's my present)
Mmmmmm, chapstick!!! I fan favorite with these girls!
The countdown continues, can you believe we only have about 13 more days?
This year is flying by for me but maybe it's because this is the most fun to see them so excited every morning.
I hope everyone else is enjoying their traditions as much as we are.
