Countdown to Christmas Continues

Madeline really got into picking her "list" from the Advent Calendar and finding Patty each morning.

We had hot chocolate with mini marshmallows and A Charlie Brown Christmas after bathtime. The hot chocolate was a first and a huge HIT!
Patty participated in our "list" that day.

To celebrate Mommy's 36th birthday, we made s'mores on our indoor maker. Again, Madeline felt like such a big girl coming down after bathtime to do something fun!

So carefully roasting...

Possibly the best reaction to food EVER from Madeline after she bit into her delicious treat, "Mmmmm!"

Mommy had fun celebrating her birthday super low key. Seems to be a theme for us this year.

The Gingerbread house...

So proud of her handiwork...

Silliness after the Gingerbread house...Patty brought those headbands for the girls.



Decorating Amelia's birthday cake...again, a simple family party for Amelia's first birthday. Madeline used this spatula for about three swipes of icing, and then...

thinking about it...

the licking began! Mommy had to finish the icing while my chocoholic went to town on that spatula.



A Stewart cake is not complete without sprinkles!

A few more sprinkles...

And, a few more!



Licking all the icing covered sprinkles off her hands

Amelia's first birthday cake! Such a homegrown little party for our sweet girl, but we had fun.
