SNOW!!! and a new pettiskirt!

Amazingly enough, we actually had a snow day this winter! It really was only one day, probably just 12 hours really. It started snowing last night and it was still on the ground this morning. I didn't tell Haley there was even a chance, since the weathermen are often not correct. So, she was very pleased to see a blanket of white outside this morning.

I got the kids bundled up and headed out to take a few pictures. Haley loved it and was happy to stay out and play. Blake was indifferent. He was ok until he got too cold. Eli, though, HATED it! It could be because he had just gotten up and instead of having his milk and breakfast, he was dressed and whisked outside with a camera in his face. At any rate, he did NOT like it at all!!!

Here's what Eli thought!



Haley and Blake:



An area mom's board that I'm a part of did a group buy for the adorable pettiskirts. I didn't take part in the first one, but have in the second one. The three, yes three, that I ordered won't be in until the end of the summer, probably. But one of the mom's decided to sell a couple of hers! Yay! So, I got Haley a green one today!

Here she is "posing":



And spinning!

New Pictures

I know, I've been slacking on the blog. We've had a crazy couple months. ALL of us were sick. We ended up having to take Blake to the ER on night because he had run a fever for 3 days. Turned out that he had strep (along with James, Haley, Eli and I).

Anyway, we are all mended now. Blake is cutting teeth, so he's cranky. Haley is doing well. Counting down the days until Kindergarden. We got her enrolled in a private Christian school in town. Eli's turning two on Friday, where did those years go? He's been in the terrible two's for, oh, 6 months now. He's talking more and more though, so his speech theropy seems to be working well.

So here's some recent pictures. I'll try to keep this up better, but make no promises! :)
