So, to conclude the Marvy Mom Holiday Ideas for this year, here are this year's write ups. Mediocre at best... but DONE! And 'round here lately, DONE is worth a lot.
This is the photo we used on T's jar. It's in the waiting room just before we found out #3 was a boy. |

Oh I love these. Gonna have to try to do this with my girls. I love that T has a million friends whose names begin with a "C" ... there's definitely a theme there! Between that and Whoopie pies. I mean, who doesn't like a good Whoopie pie?! :) xo
ReplyDeleteSo where does Elliott's Robinson come from? Griffin's is from his grandpy and great-grandpa (who was born in Wolfeboro, BTW) :-)
ReplyDeleteMy maternal Grandmother's maiden name was Robinson... But they are from New York State - near Binghamton. :) I love his middle name. I think it makes him sound Presidential... but in a GOOD way! ;)
ReplyDeleteIt does add a bit of dignity doesn't it....too bad he's such a goof ball (mine that is!!)...I'm just waiting to use it when he's really pushing something.
