What to Do, What to Do???




We used to be a team of 3 (Jack, Ava and I) out on the town!! We usually did something fun outside of the house 1x a day....not anymore!! I left the house yesterday for the 1st time in 3 days, unshowered of course but none the less it felt sooo good to get out! Jack asked me the first 2 weeks "where we going today mommy" ! He doesn't even ask now! So, we have to find fun things to do and do we ever!! I LOVE christmas and most all holidays which Jack seems to also! We have been trying to something christmasy everyday and a craft or two a week. Jack loves craft time and Ava loves to make a mess. The day pictured we made xmas trees and had cut out colored construction paper for the ornamnets and used glitter (yes, it's still all over the house) for the garland, which I'm pretty sure was their favorite part! I'm planning more xmas crafts, if I could only get over to Michaels for some more supplies!!
When they're not doing something creative or destroying the xmas tree they're usually wrestling and/or playing together (top pic)! Ava is one tough cookie! Jack throws her around like a rag doll and she says "Again Jack" The problem is she then trys to wrestle with other kids and they have NO IDEA what she's doing and want no part of it! She usually proceeds to "make them want to be a part of it" and takes them "down"! This is usually followed by tears (from the other child, of course) and me running over apologizing profusely!!
Jack and Ava are best friends! This has really helped in "our situation" becasue they have eachother there has been NO jealousy, thank goodness! :) I hope the twins have the same relationship and that they all have that with eachother!
