{354.355.356.357/365} Gearing Up for Christmas


We made several goodies this year (a first for me!).  I thought it would be fun for Aiden.  It was.  Until he lost interest and told me, "I'm too busy to help anymore."  Yeah, he looks super busy.
 The local farm equipment store (there's still corn in Indiana afterall) has a HUGE light display every year.  We drove through it on Wednesday.
 Aiden's favorites were the train and the giraffes boarding Noah's Ark.

 Hanging out, watching his Rescue Her0es DVD. 
 Today we went down to the children's museum.  It was super busy but we managed to get right in line for the yuletide slide.  We spent 4 hours there- Aiden wanted to do it all!  He melted on the way out but fell asleep pretty quickly.  Still working on not getting so upset when it's time to go.  It's not going so well- I'm open to suggestions!
 Ice Skating and Ice Fishing


 Aiden is still big into writing.  I think he found every place that had some sort of coloring/writing involved and spent lots of time there.  He also could have spent hours "digging" for the terra cotta warriors!

We haven't made our cookies yet, and I totally forgot about those lights! We were very close when we were at our old house. I guess we have a lot to do tomorrow!

{As for leaving... I set a timer on my phone. It doesn't always work, but it's indisputable most of the time...}
