The blue room got a big clean after the tree left on Saturday, and we are trying a few pieces of furniture out in different spots to give the record player its own space. There is a lot of dancing there, so it needs abit of a dance floor and room to move. We are also playing around with a few different rug options, and I'm so happy to have my globe back home. My parents got this globe for me years ago as a Christmas gift and I love it so much. The kids love looking at it, and it's coming in handy for some dinner time conversations and a new tradition we started this year (more on that later!).
Anna is currently enjoying a great game which she got from Santa. If you know anyone in Grade 1, this is THE game for them....Rat-a-Tat-Cat. It's got some great math and memory skill work, and Sam is even starting to get the hang of it. We love playing it with her, and this is the first real card game she asks to play again and again. My fingers are crossed, UNO is next!
Sam also got a great matching game from Grandma and Grandpa for Christmas and he loves it. We are getting it out when Henry naps in the afternoons, and he's a pro at matching all the cards.
Sam and Henry have been getting the guitars out and rocking to some serious music. Henry just loves to sing, in fact, every time we light the fireplace or a candle he sings Happy Birthday (we just had a number of birthday's over the holiday's, so maybe he's still celebrating).
P.S - the guys requested popcorn today for snack so they ate it on the floor wearing their slippers. Anna also rocked Friday's spelling test!
