Junior church/Christmas story

Zoë slept so good in her bed, she is a little on the sick side with a stuffy nose and coughing. She woke up in the night from coughing and I had to go in the to give her something for it. Zo was still laying on the bed, not under the cover but at least not on the floor! Then in the morning she woke up after eight (which is sleeping in for her )I had to go in there and get her up so that we could be on time for our day. When I got in there she was awake and reading her bible in the dark! how cute is she. Success and it's just day one!

At my church when kids turn two that mean they get to go to Junior church which is Sunday school for 2-6 years. This of course was a big thing for us.

Sunday which was Christmas eve Zoë got to go for the first time, the coolest part was that both of her Auntie's where there to see her go up!

Now every Sunday morning during the service they call up the kids to the front some of the kids go running up there ( a little excited!). They get a little prayer and off they go to the class to learn about Jesus!

That night too the church was putting on a skit about the Christmas story and Zo was in it as a little lamb! she was the cutest dress up in a over sized lamb suit! This also was her first time ever being in a play or skit in front or anybody, I have to say she did great for her first time!

TWO!

Wow Zoë is two! On Saturday Zo's Auntie's come here for a little family party I had going on.

It started off with her birthday gifts and did she ever get lots of great stuff, a new bed room bedding for her big girl bed that she is sleeping in for the first time tonight. It was happy- sad emotions for me as this is a big mile stone for us. I am so proud of my girl she is getting so big and learning new things. I hope this transition from crib to bed will be an easy and happy one. I have to stop worrying if she is going to fall out of the bed or suffocate. I did get her a nice new duvet for the little miss. (she is so lucky! hahaha) I wish I was sleeping with her for the first time.. nice and warm.

She also got the matching rug, book case which is so full already I can't believe that she just got one now there is only room for a few more books. I might be needing to get her an other one soon. A Toy bin organizer real handy, little people farm friends, books and the cutest little dress outfit and dress shoes, more clothes, shoes and toys I'm sure I'm missing some thing else but you get it she got a lot of nice things.

I made a chicken dinner with potatoes and carrots( well my mom help me out as I was enjoying spending time with everyone) and then of course the cake! It was a chocolate cake with little daisy's on it and the colours of the cake matched Zoë's new bedding! yes I am a dork!

Thanks everyone for the birthday gifts and wishes.

Party #1

I need some sleep for a Big two year old brithday, till tomrrow!

I'm all done work till Wednesdays and it’s going to feel so nice to have some special days off. I bet that they are going to fly by, but still it will be so awesome.

Tonight I had a little party for Zoë with my girl friend Melissa and her daughter Jaden, they came over for pizza and they brought over and made the best cup cakes I think I have ever had to celebrate Zoë's day. (They are unable to be here for tomorrow)

We also celebrated Christmas with gifts and I got a willow tree angel and Zo got a wooden puzzle. Thanks so much ladies it was a fun night by all. I look forward to the tea time we are going to now have together. woohoo for a tea pot set! (I gave her one!)

I still can hardly believe that tomorrow Zoë is going to be two! Wow that's so exciting, that also means that she starts junior church on Christmas Eve. (Which is Sunday school for kids from 2-6 years)

I need some sleep for a Big two year old brithday, till tomrrow!

Four more days!

Coming so soon, Zoë second birthday!

Excited mamama over here, I did up her birthday decorations five days early. Well I thought it wasn't really nice to only have it up for one day seeing as it is going to be Christmas eve the day after and I will be talking it down to Celebrate Christmas. So I'm, a little ahead which I don't think there is anything wrong with it at this time of year that's a good thing right!?!..

Pictures of the lovely job I did!

Lydia and Evelyn are coming on Saturday and then a week later my brother , sister in-law and my nephew's will be here, which I can't wait to see then and spend time with them. Wow this weekend/week is going to be very exciting for us!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone, may God bless you this season and always!

sleigh rides!

"Dashing through the snow on a purple sled today thought the field we go laughing all the way"



"Oh what fun it is to ride on my purple sled today"

Hi I'm here..

Wow this time of year is go, go, go! I have been busy non- stop here people... I'm not sure if you are feeling the same thing but this whole Christmas holiday thing is busy!

Where do I begin? It’s been so long.....
Well I might as well start with this weekend...

Evelyn Came here for the weekend to do some Christmas baking and to help put up my totally picture perfect tree!

Friday night we took the tree out of the box, for those of you who don’t know this is my first ever ever having a fake tree. So the tree is out of the box and were fanning out the branches, well were doing that I was getting so disappointed it was looking real bad and it's a lot more work then a real tree! But in the end it was ok. (Still l love my real tree) after is was all up and fanned out time for the decorations to be but on! This was the part that I was looking forward to my pink and silver decorations!

I love my tree it looks so pretty!

Saturday was the baking day! We made ginger snaps, ginger cookies and almond Roca.

Now to back up a little bit on what was happening just before the weekend….

On Wednesday it started snowing here and it snowed. Thursday morning I woke up and it’s still snowing.. I dropped off Zoë to day care they always go outside no matter what the weather is doing, so I know that she was going to be playing in the snow. This of course would be her first time in it which I was so sad about I know that I have the whole season but come on it’s the first time and I wanted to see her reaction to it. I told her teachers to take lots of pictures and to let me know everything she did out there!

Here she is she loved it out there no surprise really; they said that she liked the sleigh ride the best but really who wouldn’t!?!

In 13 days it’s going to be my little miss’s second birthday! I can hardly believe it she is going to be 2 Wow wow!!! I’m going to be having a little party for her here at home.

My Christmas Shopping for the most part is all done I just have a few people to buy for still. I guess I will be doing that this coming weekend it feels like that’s what I have been doing for the last month. Well soon it will be all over time goes so fast those days!

Till I can find more time!
