E had J for Christmas this year. She made him a mail carrier's play set. I traced pictures on to fabric, she colored them and cut out post cards and envelopes out of felt. Then I sewed it together. J ran around delivering mail all morning.

J had D for Christmas. He went to a local rock shop and picked out 15 rocks that would fit into the little box we bought. Some of them were really cool looking. Then I put together a rock identification guide that told about the rocks J chose. I learned a lot about rocks putting together the booklet and D really likes the rocks.
K had E for Christmas he helped me choose and cut out paper to make these cute little books. He made her six books that she can write and illustrate herself. She has already finished one about a tea party where the tea got spilled and K ate the cookies. Don't worry in the end E saves the day by making more tea and pulling more cookies from the freezer. Her favorite gift this year was the tea set that Baba gave her.

I am still getting the hang of how to blog so here are the pictures of the space boy doll I made.

I wanted to show you some of the Christmas gifts we made for each other this year. I made J and K these cute space boy dolls. They seem to like them, and they turned out super cute. Only problem is J's doll keeps getting sent to time out for bopping his siblings on the head. (At least it can't hurt much.)

Hello World

OK, last night when mom sent me the link to her blog I developed a case of blogger envy. I started feeling left out as the only girl with out a blog. I couldn't let much time pass before I got a blog of my own. So here it is. The blog I never intended to have.
