They had all sorts of activities for children younger than three - a cake walk, bounce house, Santa, hat-making table, cookie decorating table, a wagon ride. They had a pretty good time despite how it looks in these pictures. After about an hour or so, they were done and this wagon ride was closer to the end of our visit.
They really enjoyed eating their cookie they decorated. What a mess that was!
Lindsay and I helped them decorate of course. (Out of order again...)
The reindeer hat making table. Tyler didn't want to wear his hat.
Neither did Hannah...
Whitney didn't mind her hat, surprisingly but when we tried to take off the random hat from the table and put on the hat she actually made, she was mad and wouldn't wear it.
It can be quite challenging and intimidating to take the three of them out by myself to places like this but I bet if I did it more often, they would be less scared and more comfortable. I am going to attempt a Valentine's house party with a playgroup from my church in a couple weeks. I know there will be a housefull so I hope the kids don't have a melt down.

These are so fun! Man it is interesting...Little Bit is really a challenge out as well until he gets used to something and understands what is expected we go through lists what he can do and what he can't. One friends' home who we visit every other week. For the first few weeks he would get into their underwear and put them on his head, let the dogs in the house and out of the house...just had not boundaries or guidance whatsoever for so long. It is really funny though well, looking back that is.
I'm glad you are coming to the playgroup party. We'll see you there. And promise me you won't worry about one of them having a meltdown. That is inevitable. If it's not yours, it will be mine, or someone elses. Kids meltdown:) They just do and I promise no one cares!!!!!! Don't let that fear keep you from hanging out with us.
