First.Of.The.Last

on
First day of the last month of the year, I mean, but I suppose you have understood ! *Ü*
Well, let me tell you that I'm feeling a bit ... puzzled by my little ones. P seems to have a gastro or tummy bug that hits one day another. He hasn't been eating much at all the last weeks because of this & it worries me a bit. Some meals he has good appetite, some other less, and at random he will vomit. How weird is that bug ?!
U is free from illness now, but the infection of one his finger (which has been being treated for more than a week now) remains & apparently heals. But it does keep us worried too.
I've been very busy this past weekend finishing the advent calendar & gift making. Hopefully my mom came a bit to the rescue for the advent calendar. Phew. If you want, I will tell you what we do everyday.
Activities Advent Calendar - Day 1 : Print & do a winter maze. (we did this one)

Of course I have to juggle with the days my mom is here (only 2 days left btw - boohoo) , the days I'm on my own, the days Chris is home to help me with bigger (or messier) activities ... etc etc.

Pics ? Sure !I've had another custom order so I'll be busy this week as well. Not sure if this will leave me much time to blog but I'll do my best. :)
I've been to the post office to send my first batch of holidays/Christmas cards, and will send the others the next few days too. At least I won't be late for this, this year.

HAPPY DECEMBER to you & yours & to all a great week ahead !! Thinking about you all. :) OXOXO Big hugs !

edit : I simply wanted to add a little Christmas fun to this post ... Enjoy !

    Sonia,
    You are being a caring and wonderful mother, but you must also take good care of yourself. The advent calender looks beautiful, very simple, just the way I love it! I hope both your boys will be fully better soon, and please do enjoy your mother's stay!

    Hi Sonia! I hung on our Christmas tree the felt heart that you made for me. It looks lovely. I have it next to other ornaments I've received from blog frinds. :) Advent calendars are always fun! Hope P will get over his tummy bug once and for all! (((Hugz)))

    Bonjour ma belle :) I was so, so sorry to read about all of what you have been through lately, I know those tummy bugs all too well (we had our rounds just before our vacations this summer... sigh!). I am keeping my fingers crossed for you all, that you are rid of all nasty bugs well in time for Christmas!! :) And oooo, I love the Advent Calendar, it's absolutely adorable! And what a wonderful idea too, to fill it with lots of fun activities, I am sure the boys will be jumping for joy :) As for myself, I spend all of the year gathering little presents to give the girls during December, that's how sad I am... LOL (can you tell I LOVE Christmas??... LOL). Take care of yourself and your loved ones now, and enjoy the last few days of your mother's stay! Big hugs and xxxx,
    Susanne

    Hi there Sonia :) I do hope the boys, and you are all feeling better today. Love the advent calendar you made! I am also giving the kids little activities to do everyday in the lead up to Christmas. Yesterday they colored a Christmas coloring page I printed out. Today I found these cute snowmen to print for them to play with. I thought I'd share with you, as the boys might like them too :) http://familyfun.go.com/printables/season/specialfeature/christmas-printables-ms/
    The activity is listed under Build Your Own Snowman, and has four pages to print, and cut out.
    Better go for now, and get some laundry done. Have a great evening! Lots of love & hugs xxx
