Winter Storm 2011

Its SNOWMAGEDON!!!!

We got 10-12 inches of snow here in Oklahoma with 50 mph wind gusts and for Oklahoma that translates to the entire city/state shutting down. So we have been lucky to get two extra days home all together this week. We have been having tons of fun because Ellie loves the snow this year as opposed to last. The pic below where she is crying is because we forced her to come inside since the wind child was -10 and she threw a tantrum- what a difference a year makes! Last year she would cry if we put her close to the snow- but now she just loves it. Mike tried to make her a make shift sled but that was a bust. They made a snowman and numerous snow angels and she has loved every freezing minute of it. Tripp and I for the most part have stayed in doors where it is warm but we did venture out for a few photos and he seemed to not mind the snow at all- pardon the pink snowsuit but he is second child who must accept some hand me downs- when he is aware I promise to only get boy stuff. As you can see, Tripp is sitting up on his own but not quite mobile so ellie still loves him to pieces since he is not yet into her stuff. I almost wish I could freeze him at this stage but I know it will all be ok. Ellie is still be a two year old but her funny moments are becoming much more abundant than her not so funny moments. we attempted to potty train since we were stuck in the house but she will have no part of it- even with the bribes I bought for her. I know she has a mind of her own and that she will do it when she is ready but I am stubborn also and am tired of double the dirty diapers- but I am exercising patience and hopefully she will make the decision sooner rather than later.

hope everyone is staying warm- good think the groundhog is predicting an early spring!!!

Welcome Family and Friends!

With addition of our precious angel, I figured it was time to start a blog so that everyone could be blessed with updates on her many developments and pictures of our adorable baby. All this plus my witty insights - who could ask for anything more from a blog. Enjoy!
