Gingerbread House




They now make this kit to make a Gingerbread House. They have probably had these out for years, but this is the first year I have ever seen one. Everything comes baked and put together. Your job is to decorate the house as you wish. All of the things you need to do the decorating come with the kit. Amber and Megan received a kit to make their own Gingerbread House this past weekend during a family Christmas with Grandpa's side of the family. Today, the girls enjoyed decorating their own house. It's amazing what a mess two little girls can make with tubes of icing. But, the mess has been cleaned up and the final product is sitting on our table to admire the rest of this holiday season.


Tanner's a splashin'

Last time Tanner had a bath, I realized that the hammock that was in his little tub had shrunk a bit. Well, actually I guess Tanner has just grown that much. So, this bath, I decided to take it off. This was the first bath he had just in the little tub. He was submerged in the water and a lot freer than he has ever been. He had an absolute blast. He stayed in the tub for 20 minutes splashing and jumping around. Finally the girls and daddy came in to watch. It was a little distracting, but he kept right on playing.
