Snow Days

This past week we had some crazy weather! We were iced in from Tuesday through Thursday with about 6 inches of snow Friday morning. After being at home with two kids, we decided it was time to go out and play in the snow. Cameron lasted about 15 minutes and the snow burned his cheeks. Poor baby has such sensitive skin. Gracie & I headed to the park next to our house and played. We met a few friends and had a grand ol' time. I'm really surprised at how much Gracie LOVES the snow. She might be the reason we go skiing one day - yeah right.

We purchased real snow jackets and bibs for the kids for our Christmas Trip to Chicago and didn't think we would get much use of them, boy was I wrong!

Cousins

Today, I had both Brianna and Cameron. It has been extremely exhausting but lots of fun. I enjoy that they get to grow up together like I did with my cousins.

Holidays....

I love the Holidays! I love sitting back, drinking my cup of tea and looking at the Christmas Tree and all the lights. I am so thankful to God for the wonderful life he has given me. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with my family. My sisters are my best friends! I didn't take any pictures because it tends to get a little crazy with so many of us but here are a few pictures of us picking out some pumpkins.

Time Has Flown By...

I am now in my 7th month of being a full time mother and wife. This has truly been the most amazing 7 months of my life (except when my children were born). I have been so fulfilled! I spend a lot of time volunteering at school which is more rewarding than I expected. I love being able to be available for my children when they need me. I can drop what I am doing and go tend to their needs. I have more time with them in the afternoon than I used to when I was working. I am a much more patient person...I LOVE MY FAMILY! Today, we were working on homework and Gracie was asked to write a few sentences on something she wishes she could do. I have to share this because it just melted my heart.

I with I could stay up all night long. If you stay up all night long, here is so much you can do. I could play games, eat midnight snacks, watch movies and have makeovers. My mom will not ever let me stay up all night long that is why I can only wish it.
