Gampy Time!

... and my mess!

h

Go Packers...

Don't tell Daddy!  I'd wear Eagles but I don't recall them making the playoffs!

Blue Feet

Yesterday we did our annual feet / hand painting.  A little more difficult keeping him on the paper this year - but luckily everything cleaned up in the end!

Choo... Choo...

Over the past two days Mommy and Chippy have had lots of choo choo times.  Chippy wore his train overalls and played trains most of Monday.  On Tuesday we watched lots of Thomas TV! :)

He was also a little dare devil jumping on and off his choo choo bed!

French Toast

Chippy helped make french toast this morning doing all the pouring and stirring all by himself! 

Update: To the Super Nanny ... we are deeply indebted to you!

Chippy's Newton

Some major milestones for the Chipster this week:

1.  Chippy has peed in the potty 3 times in 3 days!  He completely knows what to do when we ask him if he has to go prior to his bath.  Stickers for everyone!

2.  Chippy knows how to get out of bed when we put him down for the night.  He refuses to stay in bed now.  Tonight we are going to enter Super Nanny mode and lay down the law!  Or at least Daddy is!  

3.  We have been getting the following updates from daycare:

 Chippy is doing so much better at not pushing other kids out of the way when he wants a turn.  He now announces that its his turn.

 Chippy likes to ball up a blanket and pretend its baby Maisie (or Mayonnaise when you listen to his  pronunciation)

 Wow, it certainly has been quiet without Chippy here on Mondays and Tuesdays!

Snow Day

Shortly before realizing snow is very cold when we don't keep our mittens on!

Let Him Eat Cake!

Last night the family went over to my boss' house for a 'Wee M get together'.  Part of the festivities included cake which we were able to bring part home and have for dessert tonight - after finishing all our dinner!
Everyone was pretty well behaved last night with the exception of Chippy pulling down his pants in front of everyone - repeatedly, and taking food off my boss' plate, fingering it, and promptly returning it! Wee M slept through her party.

Hike

Ready for the family hike!

Chocolate Waffles...

... for breakfast??!!

Christmas 2

Grammy, Pa, and Uncle Peppers came down to celebrate Christmas 2!  Highlights include opening everyone else's presents, getting a height measuring board made by Pa, playing trains with Uncle Peppers and reading my favourite books!

Mr. Fix It

Since getting his new tool set, Chippy is game to fix anything that needs fixing - or even that doesn't need fixing!  Here he is helping out Pa fix the front door!

Sailing

Dad and Chippy were playing the other day and they decided to make a sailboat!  Not sure how mum can top that one!  Chippy was pretty excited about his boat!

Happy New Years!

Who needs to clang their pots at midnight
when you can empty the cupboard and reorganize?
