Thanksgiving 2012

 Entertaining the girls... a little game of duck, duck, goose.

Fall Feast

The preschool has a precious lunch every year for the children and their families during Thanksgiving. This year they split the school into two different days. Clay and I were able to have two yummy meals with our girls individually. 

 Shelby Claire was a tad bit bonkers during her meal. She is not used to not sitting in a high chair so she was ALL OVER THE PLACE! It was fun but a little stressful at the same time.

 On Audrey's day, she was in a "mood" where she didn't care to eat-- she just wanted to play on the stage. I didn't let her do that but that didn't stop her from asking me a million times. This is the only picture I took that day (?!?!) and it is of her and her friend, Matti Ann.

I'm so thankful for my sweet girls and little family even on days when they embarrass the mess out of me.

Character Parades at School

On Halloween, the girls got to wear their costumes to school and parade through the hallways. This is one of my favorite activities the girls get to do because I LOVE seeing all the children all dolled up. 

This is my littlest piglet, Shelby Claire. She didn't look at me when I took the picture and I was afraid to call out to her-- thinking she may be upset that she couldn't go with me. She was adorable walking down the hallway just as if she were a big girl. Her entire class walked in a line which I think is an amazing feat her teachers accomplished! 

In this photo, you can see Audrey in her little piglet outfit right behind the police officer. :)

She loved wearing a pig costume like her sisters. The costume Shelby Claire is wearing is actually Audrey's from when she was a baby. Ironically, it still fits her.

Big girl finally saw her Momma.

After the parade, each girl had a Halloween party. Shelby Claire's was first and they had made some precious "Forkupine Art". I love her teachers- they really work hard to keep the little ones actively engaged.

She was so happy to see me at the party. She kept saying, "My mommy", and patting me on the belly. I loved it. :) They had chicken nuggets from McDonald's (SC's first- blech).

My sweet girl saying the blessing before diving into her healthy lunch. haha.

I left Shelby Claire's party and hurried down to Audrey's. They also had chicken nuggets but they had an awesome CARAMEL APPLE BAR that I loved but Audrey wasn't too keen on. :)

This is Audrey's teacher, Doron, demonstrating how to properly skewer an apple slice and how to NOT skewer a classmate. :)

Not so sure about the apples but loving the sprinkles. She eventually just turned the entire cup of sprinkles up and drank them like they were water. :)

Now moved on to drinking the chocolate chips.

One of my favorite things about being a stay at home momma is being able to go to events like these at school. I love seeing my girls with their friends and getting to be a part of their day.
