Life Adventures for Miles

Today we did one of our lazy days. We spent the morning just hanging about watching our screens, sleeping in, and playing with the Christmas presents. Then it was off to a friend's house to hang out for a day. While there we had some more catch up and playtime for the kiddos. The screens didn't stay off there either. The Luna entertainment started with an episode of Micky Mouse Clubhouse (Daisy Bo Peep), then we had a puzzle of what to watch next and settled on fish (Finding Nemo) and then the husband's favorite, Robin Hood. It was a Disney full afternoon/evening! Then the husband made pizza and showed off his pizza skills! Yum! Yum!

  This book is about a little girl who finds out about herself, it goes through words the measure in size, first small, then big, she realizes she "is everything" and can do anything. The author likes the idea of multicultural books, so he wrote a book and has coordinated with a lot of different translations to translate the book into other languages. Speaking if German translations (as that is this particular version), Luna introduced her Oma to Paw patrol and they found it in German! It was a little fast for me to understand it all, and Luna had some trouble with the language change but soon as the channel showed episodes she has seen a millions and one times, she mellowed out and didn't found it just as interesting background noise as she normal finds her screens, heh.  The next 2 books are part of a series in which kids explore certain famous people and their skills. We read Amelia Earhart and Bruce Lee. It shares their life story and what they learned and what we can

Today we finally made it up the mountain! We were hoping for famous cookies and snow, however, the cookie cabin was closed and there was much snow in places we could actually get to...though we did find some! Luna had lots of fun trying to figure out what to do with it without having cold hands (we didn't have any gloves). We found a general store open that had lots of different fudge so we got some of that goodness! Luna also got a stuffie and named her "Rita the cheetah" (who is really a bobcat/lynx).  After the 3 hours of maintaining (an hour up, an hour down, and about an hour walking and playing about), Luna had a good nap before dinner and cookie making with her grandma! The craft of the week: cookies! So after a delicious meal of chimichangas and Eggees slushies, grandma brought out the cookie mix and we were all for it! The recipe was a typical chocolate chip cookie recipe and it was very Luna friendly as all the measurements were ready to go, so all the 4-year-ol
