Ours is starting to melt now but it's still cold. I shoveled the driveway and man that stuff is so heavy!! It's not powdery at all.

The kids are going out in it right now and I'm putting baby down for a nap (I hope she goes down...she needs it!)

I just got Evan down. Going to have lunch then I might send the girls out into the snow.

[mommabritt]

We just went out. I have pics. Brb

Ok. I can't just share a pic of my girl. Gotta show love to my boys too.

Nathan and his 1st snowman ever!

of course... Harper

She looked like such a chubby marshmallow!

[Andbabymakes2]

aww!! too sweet! And Yay! for first snowman! The girls are going to build their first one tonight too!


ok- silly rant, but I am so tired of my MIL asking be when I'm going to take Evan off formula. Yeah, he still takes a bottle and formula, b/c he won't drink milk straight. (I mix the two 1/2&1/2) I know he's almost 2, but I use it still to fill in the nutritional gaps, since he doesn't eat most of the stuff we do. What else should I do? let the kid be malnourished? lol Oh and feeding him margarined white bread is better right?? I wish he was still Bf'ing, but that didn't happen so this is it. We do use sippy cups for juice or water, but he won't drink that sometimes either. One day he will love something and another day hate it. Oh well, I try to be polite but it's just irritating! Ya know?

Ugh I hate mil questions like that!

Love the pics britt but seeing makes me so happy we do not get snow.

We have a for sale sign on our front lawn hope we can sell soon so we can move to where we want. We would have a house built hopefully if we can sell soon enough to still have the property we want still available

I am exhausted today and resting but I need to get up and start moving. It is just a combination of pregnancy and colds the whole month of feb

[smblake]

Allison, we've got a for sale sign up too. Had one realtor come preview yesterday and one almost showing but their clients were on a tight schedule and couldn't make it.

This house selling stuff is a wee bit stressful.

My brother and his fam are coming this afternoon to stay the night on their way up to the airport tomorrow. The boys are wild with excitement over seeing their cousins. And dh and I have a lot to explain to them about everything going on.

As far as pregnancy goes, I'm 6 weeks tomorrow, I've had some super light spotting a few times this past week which if course has me worried but I had a blood draw yesterday and my hcg was 7000, and in the normal range, I go for a redraw on Thursday, in the mean time my mw said to rest! Praying the wee one hangs on for the long haul.

[Andbabymakes2]

Melissa- sounds like just normal spotting early on then, if your numbers are good? FX that they keeps rising and baby is happy and healthy!!! GL with the sale I can't imagine trying with kids in the house!

GL to you as well Alison with the sale and soon, to get the land to build!


Here's the girls with their snowman!


Poor Evan had a high fever tonight. Hope it's not the flu or ears. He's sleeping now. Praying all night.

Baby girl #1 is 8 today! Holy cow! Just having a little family party tonight and then a roller skating party on Saturday.

[mommabritt]

Happy birthday to your dd!

I totally want to go roller skating!! Fun!

[dagmomma]

OMG HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I can't imagine eight! I think I would go hysterical crying!

AFM well I think I am just going to let Peyton watch Elmo's Potty Time everyday until she wants to be like Elmo. Can't hurt right. She seems to catch on so she should be pl'ed by 4 lol!!! Hopefully by 2. I will take 3.

So the town little league draft was last night. LOL! Blu got picked 1st. He is really good but I was laughing and said to DH wait until he starts running around like a velociraptor and everyone is trying to figure out what he is doing. You never know when he is going to turn into a dinosaur! LOL
