Today is…Tuesday Nov 30 2010
We vacuumed.
Super Boys to the rescue!
(Who would have guessed vacuuming would be so much fun…but it is one of the favourite “toys” in our home)
We prayed. We had snack. We looked at our Gospel Picture:
Then, after lunch I read the boys some stories:
And Ettin crashed.
“His head is like this, mom.”
Yup.
Thankfully he crashed at 2pm and not 5pm, like he has been doing lately.
However, I’d planned to have him awake this afternoon!
Carrying on without our Ettin…
We did a reindeer craft.
We traced Giant’s and Galoot’s hands and feet.
Then I put a grumpy Galoot to bed while Giant cut out his tracings:
We glued and coloured them:
And put them up as reindeer peeking around our tree.
Or reindeer heads floating near the tree.
Either way, Tah Dah!
Now, for the rest of the afternoon.
I’ve actually been enjoying having Ettin not napping.
He keeps Giant busy.
Without him….
Giant is mostly underfoot.
Literally.
Thankfully Ettin didn’t nap for long, and we were able to enjoy his special talent of being able to entertain:
(he is colouring this picture specifically for Galoot. He draws intently for a little bit, then asks Galoot: “Like that, baby?” Then laughs and draws some more, always asking Galoot if he likes it. Too cute!)
