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!
