Lacrosse Stix and Princess Shoes

Pat had the day off today and spent it at home with the kids! They did the one thing I have been dreading for weeks- They Cleaned Up Christmas!! I came up and there were still a bunch of boxes around but at least the trees were down and almost everything else was put away!!
YAY for Daddy's day off!!
With all of the new found room in the house the kids were able to run around a bit! We dug out Nicholas' new Lacrosse stix and ball and started to teach Nicholas the art of throwing and catching with a Lacrosse stick. I have to say, once he got the motion down, he did pretty well!! Addie was better at wielding her stick like a weapon but that's to be expected with her!! ;)
After Lacrosse, we opened one of Addie's new toys- a Princess dress up set! We had fun putting on the earrings and necklace and bracelets! Unfortunately, the tiara was broken when we opened the box so we'll have to find another one to complete the set!!

Addie offered to share her earrings and necklace with Mommy
I even got to hold the scepter!!

This was just seconds before Addison ripped both earrings off my ears!!
