14 shoes |
Since St. Nicholas is the patron saint of children we just had to visit the Lincoln Children's Museum. We pretty much were the only ones there. We went from11-2:30 and had most of the building to ourselves.
Our St. Nicholas gifts. Vianney called them Nap slippers and Zellie (who has been dying for a pair) called them house shoes. She squealed for about an hour. |
How did I get two silky blonds? |
A chair that matches Truman's personality. |
Zellie comes out after spending much time dressing up and says, "Don't worry Mom. It's still me (and lifts up her veil)." |
Picture #1 Truman painted her own face at her favorite station. |
Picture #2 a mere 2 seconds later |
We watched this and drank our St. Nicholas hot chocolate.
Truman joined her father in a little yoga to wrap up the night. This is Truman's first time doing P90X and John's second. |
Lindsay, You are such a wonderful mother. I am so inspired by you every time I read about your family and your mothering style. You are all beautiful, and I wish I could know you in person and gain from your endless amounts of wisdom. I relish your blog posts as I am in the midst of baby growing and raising, and look up to you greatly, even though we've never met. I'm grateful for the gift of your writing and you sharing your traditions, memories, and skills. Thank you.
ReplyDeletelovely feast day celebrations. Deo gratias!!!
ReplyDeleteIt was hard to focus on all the loveliness of your St. Nick celebration after that hilarious first photo. Dying over it.
ReplyDeleteHi there!
ReplyDeleteI can't remember how I found your blog, but your children are stunning! And the day seemed so fun :) Thanks for some good ideas as mine get older!
Your little ones are just darling. I'm saving this post - great inspiration for when I'm planning my own St. Nick's Day celebrations someday. I especially love your smart use of the dollar store!
