Water wings!

What better way to recover from a long trip to the Alps which included skiing/hiking/tobogganning and snow ball fights to name a few activities, than to go to the club for some rest and relaxation. With one of my guest passes, Daddy came too. We put the kids in the play zone for an hour while I did the Body Balance class and met Daddy in the sauna afterwards. Then we picked up the kids and headed to the pool after our snack time. Frunty really loves going under water and had to take off his water wings to do so. We decided to put them on Pit who did really well. Drank a bit of water but did try to keep his lips closed. (It really just looked like he was biting his bottom lip!) We were able to let go of him and he floated on his own. This is the first time ever! Bravo, Pit!

This morning Frunty came up the stairs and checked in every single pocket of his Advents calendar. He still has trouble believing that Christmas is over even though we didn't have snow. He no longer asks if Santa is coming but by checking his calendar, he shows that he doesn't quite understand the concept yet. So adorable. We will have to put it in the cave with the other Christmas decorations.

Gramma and Grampa gave us a Cuisinart for Christmas so last night we had to make a blender shake, of course, as well as this morning. Then we grated carrots for a salad, squeezed a lemon for the dressing and then chopped up mushrooms and sausage to jazz up our pizzas. We like making "jazzy pizzas" as we call them but what's more, Frunty loves the Cuisinart and knows how to use it and showed me because he learned when he and Gramma made cookies a few weeks ago. What an adorable, little guy too.

I am so glad we got home safely from our trip and had such an amazing time with great weather. Sorry to hear that Daddy's sister's family were sick on their ski holiday, had bad snow conditions, and that cousin E fractured her wrist. Hopefully their next holiday will be better.

We are already day dreaming about our next trip too...but enjoying each day fully is also our goal and that we do. Doggie is having a dream in which he is clearly running like a mad-man, I mean mad-dog, as I can hear him behind me as I type, breathing really heavily in a fast way. He was happy to see us after a week at the Dog hotel and we gave him a carrot too. Cheerio!
