I know that I haven't been blogging much at all lately and I can't say it is because we have been busy, but I have really just been enjoying laying around the house doing nothing and hanging out in our pj's....or for Ellis his underwear. Trevor has been off since Thanksgiving so we have been staying home and attempting to potty train Ellis. I think he still may be a little young for it but he will sit and has started to tell us sometimes when he needs to go. We have had our fair share of accidents but who is coutning right!! Check out his droopy underwear.

Besides going to church on Saturday night the kids and I haven't been outside of a 5 mile radius of our housein days. (We did go to the grocery store). Our Thanksgiving was great. We spent it at home and had the traditional favorites. I didn't make a full blown Turkey but just turkey breasts which I put in the crockpot using a recipe that I thought may turn out like GG's turkey from the party we went to. (I wasn't that lucky but they were still good.....and Ellis said the green beans and chicken were yummy.) A few days before Thanksgiving it snowed so we took Ellis out to play that morning before Alaire woke up. He loved it for about 5 minutes, until snow got in his gloves and his feet got wet. I guess someone will be getting new snow boots and waterproof gloves from Santa.

I will blame it on being in the house all of this time and the cold weather, but Trevor and I have gotten a little creative in the last few days. He made Ellis a drum set out of diaper boxes and I made Ellis a rocket shirt. Trevor came up with the idea on his own. I however got the idea from my sister and another blog that I like to read. I think the shirt turned out pretty well and Ellis seems to love his drums especially the cymbals.
