More Christmas fun


This week has just been filled with lots of Christmas fun! Yesterday we had another great day. I took the bus home from school since it was a little chilly out. Then when I got home we made our Gingerbread Train!! Isn't it cool?! I did such a good job and we even had candies leftover to eat. And an extra piece of gingerbread...yummy! It's much more exciting then just a plain house. Then in the afternoon we walked over to Giant Tiger to pick up a few more gifts. One for Tony's mom and a photo album for Jaclyn. I found a neat squishy light up thing (it's hard to describe) for only 99 cents so I got to buy that too.

Last night Tony came over for dinner (spring rolls and rice...yum) and then we were off to the party! The big Christmas party at the Civilisations Museum. We all had soooooooo much fun!! There were lots of people there but it wasn't too crazy. I think going there on a Saturday is busier. We got to make our own candles out of candle wax paper and then we rolled them in glitter. They look so nice I don't think I want to burn them. I played for a long time in the children's museum too. So much fun!! Then we stopped for the best snack ever. They had apple juice, cake, sandwich wraps and cookies. So much food we couldn't eat it all and brought the rest home. They had all the tables decorated really fancy like too. So I got to stay up really late.

This morning mommy had to wake me up to get ready for school and my bus was actually on time. It's been coming like 15 minutes late every day but not today. I had a supply teacher today at school named Mrs Perkins. She's very nice. I made a sorting craft and just had fun. Mommy was there to pick me up at my classroom when school was done because we had our interview with Ms Dudar. I am doing GREAT at school!! I can count up to 38, know all my colours, how to write my full name, I know almost all the shapes except I get confused on rectangles and ovals. I also can recognise lots of letters now and know most of the sounds they make. I have lots of friends at school and really enjoy reading. And I can get ready to go home on my own. So I'm doing good! Mommy got to see some super cute pictures I have drawn of myself but they have to stay at school until the end of the year. I am so smart!

This afternoon we had more Christmas fun and went to a workshop at the Ontario Early Years Centre. Today we got to paint two tree ornaments, make two salt dough ornaments (that need to dry for a few days) and we got to cut out sugar cookies to bring home to bake. I made a craft tree too. Great fun! Those workshops are the best!! So when we got home we baked the cookies and then decided to make more cookies so we made gingerbread ones with sprinkles on them. Boy are they yummy!

That's all for now. Tomorrow will be another busy day. Mommy is coming to pick me up at school early so that we can go to the book fair and then I have a doctor's appointment. I hope I don't get any needles.
