Pencil Pals

More treats CJ made at school.

Tolerance

Big B was pretty tolerant of today's photo shoot. CJ used a sand rake as her camera and set up some toys with Big B on the new bed.

Making Progress

CJ did great roller skating today. The place was fairly crowded with the holiday break, but we had plenty of room. She fell a few times, but we had her skates looser and she was going a bit faster. She even went back for more after her milk and cookies break.

The Best for Last

These were CJ's presents for Mama and Daddy. Her school had taken a special visit to a glass shop. She made Daddy a coaster with a picture of a house on it. Mama got a spice jar filled with cinnamon that has a yellow sun on it. Thanks, sweetie.

Stone House, Route 2

We showed CJ a new route to the stone house today. Luckily we missed most of the rain, just got a little sprinkle. We even found a tree that had been decorated for the holidays. She wanted to go back the old way, which added a little neighborhood walk to the end, but it worked out fine. We ended up hanging out in the car for a bit at the end as we waited with a runner who had been locked out of his car. Little B was so tired from the hike, she didn't even care that he was with us, she just curled up and went to sleep.

Favorites

Here she is with the new mitten hand warmer. And do you remember that hat? She wore it every day, year-round a couple of years ago.
