A good start

This is how my kids spent one of their first days of Christmas holidays together. It seemed that every time I turned around they were doing something else.

This was their first activity. They were building a ladder out of books so that superheros could climb up to the T.V.

Then David decided that we needed a wreath in our house so he made one.

Here is our new spiderman Christmas wreath.

Then they made a fort.

So they decided to at least pretend to sleep for a few seconds before they moved onto the next thing...

After that it was time for a train ride. They loved taking turns and yelling out "choo-choo, chugga, choo-choo".

I surprised the kids by making a special dinner for the kids. We called it the "Tent Restaurant" and Chris served them grilled cheese and nachos. They both thought it was wonderful.

All in all I think that today was a good day for them. At bedtime tonight they both said they were excited to see what they could make/create tomorrow.

Yesterday I took out the camera and took some fun pictures of my children. It is one of the ways where you can tell how are kids have different personalities. These days, when I take out the camera to take pictures, Jaclyn will make lots of faces and want me to take pictures of her all afternoon. She will then want to look at every picture taken and then try again. David however, has a different reaction. For him it is almost like pulling teeth to get a pictures of him with him looking up at me and not hiding his face. A full out smile looking at the camera is only possible when he is in the right mood, no matter how much you might try to talk him into it. This time I managed to get a few pictures of David looking at the camera.
