Preparing for Christmas

This year Andrew and I prepared for Christmas by decorating a Jesse Tree.  Everyday we read a story in the Jesus Storybook Bible and put the corresponding ornament on the tree.  I had very low expectations and was just sure that it wouldn't last for more than a week.  But Andrew surprised me.  He actually enjoyed reading the bible and putting on the ornaments.  After I put Dominic and Sylvia down for naps, Andrew would always remind me it was "bible time".  I really enjoyed spending this time with Andrew and will definitely plan on doing it again next year. 
 


Another success this Advent was baking with the boys.  I chose something really easy and had to keep reminding myself that it was OK if they made a mess.  Overall, it was a lot of fun and the boys had a great time eating their goodies!
