Finally some real snow

All last week I had been eagerly awaiting the big snow they promised and I was sorely disappointed. But today when it was supposed to just rain we have had over a foot of snow and it keeps coming. At this rate I doubt that we will make Emma's B-day party and Greyson will likely miss his superbowl party he was going to in Portland. We had a great time in the snow today. We dressed the girls up in their snowsuits and put them in the snugglies and walked down the road for a couple miles round trip. But with snow and babies it made for a nice workout. However they are getting to heavy to go in those front packs. I seem to have a permanent crick in my latoid muscle now. Ada also went and a deer sprinted in front of us and she persued. Usually at our house she will be gone for 20-30 minutes when this happens but in the snow she only spent about 3 minutes before she was back to us.

Samia has been quite the crab the last few days with the teething. She gets most upset when trying to drink her bottle or nurse. Poor baby. And now Piper started gnawing on Greyson's hand so she is probably next. They are both sitting nicely when proped with the boppy pillow. I know crawling will be here soon and I don't look forward to all the new areas that will give them access to.

We went to a memorial service Friday for a friend and fellow co-worker of Greyson's who died from cervical cancer this week. She has two little boys and it was very sad and just hard to believe.

It is nights like this that I have a bit of a T.V. craving. I will just have to go find something else to do. I need some good books to read. No drama, lovey dovey types, and no really icky horror, but anything else I am up for trying. Any suggestions? Or better yet, anyone have any books that you have read that I can borrow? The going favorite around here is "Brown bear, brown bear, what do you see?"

Take care all,
Mel
