And the Snow Keeps Coming...

And coming, and coming... I had no clue just how much snow we would get when we moved here. At this point we are having issues with getting through our driveway because the snow just keeps filling back in. The deer are even having lots of problems getting through the snow. They no longer run from us since they can barely dredge their way through the deep snow. They are also starting to come right up to the houses looking for food. I'm actually starting to feel really sorry for my garden thieves!


Here is a photo of Margaret's mouth. It's hard to see them all, but she has six teeth coming in all at once. The poor girl has been a real trooper. The last time she let me look into her mouth I could see two of them have poked all the way through the her gums. Her teething has taken a toll on all of us. Hopefully she will start sleeping through the night again soon. We all could use some sleep.

Margaret still loves her food. However, she has now decided that it is fun to put her food in her hair by the bowl full! Oh yes, this does mean multiple hair washings a day for her. I'm sure this phase will pass soon.




Addie is keeping us busy. She is doing really good with her school work. Every evening she brings home a different reader from school and we practice together reading. At the moment her love of school has taken a back seat to her school play. She has 12 lines and is in at least 5 songs. She has play practice after school 4 days a week and is loves every day of it. Her play is on Feb. 21st so check back then for photos and maybe even a video clip.

Addie has been spending lots of time out in the snow when it has been warm enough. Speaking of Addie, it's time for me to go pick her up from school. We hope that everyone is staying warm and safe this winter!
