December!

In a continuation from November's recap, Beba shared her birthday surprise with the kids (I know that's shocking) LOL

Kylie got her first pedicure! It of course had to be "boooo"

We have another math brain on our hands! To explain what he's doing: he rolls the dice, adds the numbers together and then practices writing that number.....he rolled a 5 and a 3.....

The most wonderful time of the year!

Beba shared some old scarves ❤😂

The boys (and Mia) got to go to the Children's Museum and make Christmas decorations with some superheros! Batman was super attentive and awesome. I didn't have to help with any glue or glitter 👐😂

We had some birthday celebrations!

And I was blessed to do my 2nd annual 

foster care book drive ❤❤❤

Our first snow day (Kylie's for real!)

Seth finished up one of his Science units and did his final project by making the solar system out of playdough!

We also got to make a super cool 

Abraham Lincoln game in his history book!

These two....man! They will be the best of friends and the next minute have each other screaming and crying.

I wonder why it takes Lucas so long to eat sometimes.....😜

Seth drew this awesome fish picture, decorating each fish to 

represent a different season!

We made ornaments!

And there were lots of Christmas treats!

We tried to grow a crystal dinosaur.......

And at the end of the day, this is their go to activity.....

🎄❤

2021~2022 throwback comparison!

Mia got a fun new toy!

& we made cookies!

Mia had her monthly photo shoot.....
(I'm sorry it's impossible to choose!)

& then we all did! Pro tip: have a family member take your pictures. They will capture the most genuine smiles from your kiddos! 

Date night in looks different these days 😉

When we got back from my sister's Lucas thought Nala was sad, 

so he made her a picture of her and Bruno 

to hang in her crate and cheer her up ❤

We found these "remote control" cars for the boys' Christmas 

that follow a laser gun instead. We've tried to do the actual 

remotes and they just aren't able to steer them and get frustrated. 

Well I didn't even know when I bought them that they 

have a setting that let's you drive on the wall/ceiling!

& little miss just won't slow down ❤

Sometimes I find cute surprises on my phone.......

Other times they are weird....LOL

😂 Like he said, Happy New year!
