This morning we woke up to really thick snow which was great. I showed Kaden the snow and he got quite excited so I said we would have breakfast and go out and make a Snowman. After breakfast we got ready we went out an built a snowman. Kaden done quite well in the snow was really unsure at first as the snow went to the top of his wellies but he soon came round when we started to clear a path when making t he snowman’s body. After we got the snowmans head and body together we gave him buttons on his body, and for his eys and nose. For his mouth we used som berries off the bushes and sticks for his arms. I then went and got a hat and some left over christmas decorations and let Kaden decorate the snowman to make him Christmasy.

Kaden has started to take an interest in Jigsaws. We have a few in the house that he can do really easily. When we were in the waiting room at the hospital on Monday there was a jigsaw for 3+. I sat with Kaden and handed him a few piecies and guided him to where he should try them. I was impressed that Kaden managed to piece together the jigsaw!

We woke up to some snow today on the car which was a little dissapointing as here was none on the ground so we couldnt go out to play. A little while later though we looked out the windo and the snow flakes were huge and there was a thin layer of snow on the ground! Kaden kept wantng to see out the window so we got up and went downstairs so Kaden could see the snow out the windows. After the snow stopped for a little while I took Kaden out to play. He was throwing snowballs at Daddy and playing on the trampoline and slide. Kaden I think likes the snow much better than last year!

As it was Granny’s Birthday Yesterday we too a little visit to see her and give Granny her present and cards. We also had a cake with a candle which Kaden helped blow out. Kaden and I took granny to the shops and saw Grandad at work. After the shops we went back to Granny’s and I made the tea. Just as I was making the tea Grandad came home. Kaden had a lovely time playing with Granny and Grandad Yesterday and we hope Granny had a good Birthday!

All of us would like to say Happy Birthday to Granny xxxxxxxx

After a lovely long lie on Saturday (10am when Kaden woke up) I went to get some cookie cutters and cake moulds so that we could do some baking. I got some christmas music playing on the Internet and all of us started to make cakes and cookies! We all had good fun making a mess!

We took a visit to see Santa today.Kaden was quite happy to stand and hold my hand but as I tried to get him closer Kaden started to back away! Santa handed a selection box to Kaden and he quickly took it and backed away! We got a photo taken which we need to pick up on monday! At tea time tonight Kaden had his Christmas plate and kept saying Santa santa. Then decided to put the Santa hat on after his bath.

A few weeks ago Grandad collected a Yule Log with Oliver. They got one for Oliver and one for Kaden. Yesterday Oliver and Kaden decorated them with tinsle, greenery from the garden, icing sugar and a robin each. The Yule logs will sit at the front of Granny and Grandads fire until boxing day then the decorations will come off and they will go into the fire.

We finally finished our tree yesterday with Kaden’s help to put on the Angel!

I decided to have a look at some photo’s of Kaden putting up the tree last Christmas and can’t get over how much Kaden has grown and changed, so I thought I’d put a little reminder for all to see!
