We’re thinking PINK!

Yep, it’s a girl :)  Let’s just say, I am super excited about this!  I was hoping all my craftiness wasn’t going to be put to waste, haha.

This time we also got some video of the sonogram, which is pretty cool.

Advent Calendar

This year I decided to make a cute little Advent Calendar made out of a 24 mini muffin pan.  I used my Silhouette to cut out the squares and numbers:

Here are the “activites” we have planned:

• Decorate the tree
• Go to the Trail of Lights
• Open your special ornament and put it on the tree
• Choose a special treat
• Make a craft with Mommy
• Have breakfast for dinner
• Wear new jammies to bed
• Read the story about the birth of Jesus
• Make popcorn and watch a Christmas movie
• Drive around to see Christmas lights
• Happy Birthday Calvin!
• Sing Christmas Carols
• Wrap Christmas gifts
• Visit Santa Claus
• Decorate cookies
• Make a Christmas decoration
• Enjoy homemade hot chocolate
• Color a Christmas picture
• Calvin’s Car Party!
• Build a fort and have lunch in it
• Read a Christmas book
• Got out for lunch/dinner

Then I just put Hershey Kisses in 2 of the spots.  And the activities are in no particular order. 

Here’s another little craft I made today:

I bought the letters from Hob Lob (or Rob Lowe, eh Lala?), covered them with scrapbook paper and double-sided tape, then embellished with ribbon, buttons and snowflakes.
