100 day of school!

Bug's class had been putting up ice cream cones up on the wall every day to count each day of school. Finally it was the 100th day and their teacher surprised them with an ice cream party. The children were also asked to dress up like they were 100 years old. Bug thought this was ridiculous but she went along and had fun with it. She loved the wrinkles on her face and giggled when she went to dance class with them on. Bug also chose to put 100 rhinestones on her hat for her 100 day project. She did a great job!

Happy birthday Dr.Suess!!

The library had a fun program to celebrate Read across America which takes place on Dr.Suess's birthday. Bug had lots of fun making her 10 apples up top headband.

Roller girl!! First time to the roller rink!

Bug's first time roller skating was for her cousin's birthday party. There were lots of family there including her Granny, Grandma Carolyn and several great aunts. At first she put on regular skates and could barely stand up. So after switching several pairs, she put on safety skates. She did much better! Bug had fun skating around with her cousin Carolyn and Lexie and doing the chicken dance.

Party girl!!


Of course with the holidays come parties! Bug loves parties and loves to play partytime at home. All in one day she had her school party which was Grinch themed and Mommy was the class mom. Bug had the most fun playing the musical grinch feet and was dancing away with her girl friends. After school it was off to her party at dance class. They had a bounce house, crafts, face painting, and lots more. By the time it was over she was sugared up and ready to get home for dinner and relax.

Gingerbread house tradition

It has become a tradition for Bug to make a gingerbread house. Here are posts from last year and the year before. This year she has become quite good at making them and it turned out great! Bug put all the candies in patterns and was very proud of doing that. When it was finished there was lots of leftover frosting. Mommy told Bug to open her mouth and squirted a bunch of icing right in! Bug thought this was halarious because it was something Mommy would never do!

Visit with Santa...


Bug had several visits with Santa. One in Michigan on the Santa Train and at the Mall. While Mommy had to do her last minute shopping, Bug got another chance to see Santa. This time she whispered to Mommy afterward that she thought he might be "real" Santa. She has figured out that not all of the Santa's are real. Regardless, she stuck to her one request... a Blizzard Maker. She also wanted Baby All Gone, and a Fur Real walking puppy but she always stuck to the Blizzard Maker first and foremost.
