Claire
She came up with a new game when we were looking for something that I had lost and we hopped around the front room on the couch cushions for a while the other night. There was a bedroom for sleeping and a kitchen for eating in, and I taught her how to think of the ground as lava and not fall off. Then the next game this week was to have a tale and she originally just stuck it down her pants but kept getting upset when it would fall out so I safety pinned it to her so that she could be a kitty. We like playing with our flashcards and she has really gotten into practicing the letters so she can start making the sounds too. She has some lispy sounds with 'v' sounding like 'b' and 'q' sounding like 'k' but she's getting better.

My little stinker loves to draw and use the crayons on paper when we do it together but has recently started on the doors to our TV stand and back door. I tricked her into drawing with straws this week and trying to enforce not drawing on the walls because it was hard enough to get it off in our other apartment. She loves popcorn these days and askes for it all the time so I treat myself to a bowl every once in a while and she thinks mine is much better than hers. You can see in the picture how she is opening her mouth and saying 'ah' for one of my pieces while her bowls sits full behind her.
Crafts
I'm still sewing and doing all my Christmas presents and will post pictures when they have been given, but it has kept me busy. Between Chris studying for his finals and my sewing the girls are constantly wanting to get into our rooms to terrorize...I mean help. Between the PJs that I made for the girls, the pillow cases for our service project, and all the Christmas gifts I'm using my sewing machine more than I have in a very long time. It makes me what to do more and have a reason to use it more like an etsy shop or something!
