Another snowy day!

Today was another snowy day, in fact Alex did not have to go to school, YEAH! Alex was outside most of the day and finally Libby and Daddy got to join her. What fun they had. Daddy made a sledding ramp off the deck that everyone got to enjoy. Here are some wonderful pictures that Angela, my neighbor, took. Let me know if any of you are interested and I will give you her info, she is a photographer. How lucky am I?!?!?!

a snowy day

Today, Libby got to go outside and play in the snow with daddy. It was the first time and we could hardly get her back in. I had to bribe her with hot chocolate. And they were out there forever!! Libby is very lucky to have such a great daddy, her mommy would have never taken her out in the snow!!

trying on daddy's hat

I promise that I am a good mommy, she had stuff on her face. This is just what happens to her and daddy. You could just watch her cheeks go back to normal. When it was all said and done she was fine, no chapped cheeks! Yeah!

Happy New Year!

So I know that it has been a while, and I am sure that it will only get worse. But instead of going back and posting the times that I missed I am going to at least try and start from now. Here are a few pics from Jan.

This is from new years eve. Libby work up at around 11:30PM so instead of just letting her go back to sleep as I normally would, we let her get up. We had a very fun night at home just our family!
Libby and her new picnic table, she LOVES it! It will be so nice to have on the screened in porch this spring.

Here is Libby with daddy's ear muffs and gloves on. We had to tell daddy bye-bye and good luck on his first day of school that day! Libby misses him a lot during the day. She really got used to him being home. She thinks that he goes to school with Alex.

Its a ......

BOY!

I am sure that most of you have already heard but for those of you who have not.... We are very excitedly expecting our first boy. It came as a big surprise to me, after having 2 beautiful girls I just expected to have another one. We are thrilled and I think Alex is most of all. She has said all along that it was a boy. I guess next time I will listen to her!

This is his hand, We think that he has his daddy's long fingers.

This is the image that we saw the second that she put the wand to my belly. She did not even have to move it to see that it was a boy! I guess he did not like being called Elaina!

Zoo Boo

On Fri Libby and I met Alex at the bus stop and headed down to the zoo for a little Halloween fun. It was a beautiful afternoon and we had a blast. Alex has just as much fun as Libby does. Poor Libby's teeth were bothering her the whole time, it did not make her grouchy, but she chewed her cheeks all day. Radio Disney was there and Alex had fun entering Libby in the costume contest. We only had about 2 1/2 hours there and I have to say it was perfect. We went trick or treating and saw all the things we wanted to! What a fun time with my girls!

Alex's violin recital

On Wed Alex had her first violin recital with her new teacher. I think that Alex had fun and of course we were very proud of her. Alex is really enjoying her new teacher. She misses Nana, but sometimes you just learn different things from different teachers.

Libby and her ice cream

Sorry that this is sideways, I have to remember not to film movies with my camera turned. Once it is done, I cannot change it.

I just had to put this video on here anyway. Libby got to have her very own ice cream cone at Nina and Grandpa's house the other night. She had a blast!! The pictures show the slow distruction of the ice cream, but boy was it yummy!
