mason's new 'word'/sound is "gah-gah". i was trying to get it on video but he would stop every time! he was pretty noisy today too. oh well.
here is a simple video where mason is realizing that he has scooted himself close enough to the christmas tree to kick all the ornaments madelyn had moved to the lowest branches.
while mason was napping this morning, madelyn and i went through all her stuffed animals in preparation for christmas. i am so proud of madelyn because she wanted to "share with other kids" almost half of her stuffed animals. we had talked about the fact that there are lots of kids that don't have toys to play with and it would be nice to give them the ones that madelyn doesn't play with any more. she was giving away so many that i was afraid that she didn't understand, but she totally understood! when the pile got so big that it touched where friend was laying she jumped up to get him saying that she wanted to "keep" him. there were a few that i didn't want her to have the option to get rid of, but the rest are hers and i let her make the decision. in true madelyn fashion there was little i could do to change her mind either. we were going to start in on the playroom, and she was excited to do it, but i am going to put that off until after christmas.
madelyn was in a pretty silly mood and let me take some pictures of her 'silly' face today.
we are supposed to get about a foot of snow tonight so i am thinking that we will make a snowman (or attempt to since i have never made one before) tomorrow. i am expecting madelyn to have school cancelled. although now that i think about it, there are supposed to be blizzard conditions... maybe we won't be making a snowman just yet. love.
