Advent Painting

November has been fun here.  Steffie's work has been quieting down so he's been able to spend more time in the afternoon at home, which the girls are loving.

Elaina has started to get quite creative with her clothing.  I snapped this quick shot of her with white gloves on her feet and putting on her "high shoes" (sandles with a slight heel).  Cracked me up.

This past weekend, we took some time out to create our new Advent Calendar.  Elaina got to paint the top of the box, and Mia the bottom.  I will post the final product but we also decorated 25 small cards and put numbers on them to open every night of December, leading up to Christmas.
