Christmas business!

Wow, I can't believe Christmas is so close! I finally took a day last week and did all my baking, yeah that was a bit much and I definitely didn't have much Christmas cheer left at the end. I did end up making popcorn balls and peanut butter confetti the next day. Aiden was "helping" by eating the Christmas rice krispies. He loves to be where I am and recently discovered that cleaning out cupboards is really fun.

two of my sleepy boys, Aiden finally seems to be taking the bottle again, he was down to 1 or sometimes none at all. Which is really frustrating, I even tried to put his milk in his sippy cup but that just really upset him. He loves water in there and espcially if I put 2 TBSp of juice. Crazy that he can taste that! He loves loves loves to eat, which i am sure you can tell, but anything that we are having he loves to have. The other day at lunch he had he jar of babyfood, a whole piece of bread, an orange, and then he was still after my plate!
Crazy kid!

Jeremy had his Sunday School program last Sunday, it was pretty cute. Aiden even got to participate in one song and he had a blast shaking that tamborine.
Jeremy was a shephard and he thought it was pretty cool to wear a costume. Its funny how you take for granted the true meaning of Christmas. Jeremy didn't know about baby Jesus or the story and its been really fun to have him catch on.

Aiden loves any kind of standing and is getting really comfortable walking around the furniture and getting more comfortable with holding only one hand. He also enjoy "exploring" the Christmas tree and the presents!Preschool concert!
I hosted the Christmas party for my mom's group and we had a blast doing a craft, eating lots of food and then watching the kids open their gifts.

We also did our own purse exchange which was really fun and I was very happy with a bigger new purse that can replace my gargantous diaper bag! (But I still love that bag Tanya, I just don't have to share with Aiden anymore!)

Last but not least this is Aiden's new favorite pasttime, I had a video but it just won't work, he absolutely cruises around pushing his stacking stool and raming into things!


And for the great but scary for me news. I am not going to be returning to work, full-time at least. I did apply to my church for the new part-time secretary and I think that would be perfect and still doing something I enjoy. My work environment has long been a toxic place to work (let me clarify that their are amazing people that work their, however the head of the organization is the issue) and today confirmed my fears that nothing had changed, when my boss told me I had a bad attitude for questioning her on a few things that had changed at my job.

I don't think it's fair to be walking on egg shells all day at work, wondering if you are going to be yelled at for something stupid and then be stressed out and still needing to be a good mom to my kids. Our prayers are definitely increasing now that this decision has been made, we know their will need to be lots of sacrifices, but right now my prayer is just that we will be okay!

I hope to post once more before Christmas, but if I dont' have a chance

We wish you all a Merry Christmas from our house to yours!

Lots of love the Froese's!
