Gift Idea-Reindeer Noses

 I made these "Reindeer Nose" gifts for the kids in the boys' classes.  We also gave them to their friends around the neighborhood.  I adapted the idea from this one.

 
 Today we a make up for the "snow day" day we had a few weeks ago (it was actually serious winds that were the problem :) The kids got to wear their pajamas to school.  Lincoln was determined to wear the Mario pajamas that I bought him last year (I think that a he and a friend decided to match) and they were capris on him.  Like not possible for him to wear in public without me being mortified.  Josh was sweet enough to pick him up the much needed bigger size of Mario pjs on a late night dog food run.  He was so thrilled to have them, and it was a fun surprise for him to wake up to.   Palmer recently got new pajamas and Hunter has them coming out his ears (the perk of being the youngest of three brothers).
Kids are so funny.  Before he saw the new pajamas he was absolutely determined to wear the WAY too short pajamas to school.  Maybe i should have just let him wear the ones that came to his knees. He has been so obsessed with Mario lately that he took a pair of white gloves he received as a present and drew three lines on them like the ones Mario wears.  He also tries to wear a red shirt every day like Mario and has already decided that he WILL be Mario next year for Halloween. 
 Hunter wasn't in the above picture because he doesn't go to school until afternoon, so we took his picture later.  I had to talk Hunter into changing out the grubby old soccer uniform that he wore to bed.  I think I need to get rid of some of those soccer uniforms.  We have a million and five of those and they seem to be the only thing that my kids want to wear to bed.

Brooke, it's just the way they are standing. Palmer is still taller (I checked this morning because I also thought that Lincoln was taller in the picture). They are growing so big though! Thanks Deb!
