Now that I'm completely ready for spring, we're living in a winter wonderland. We had freeze-your-face-off cold for weeks. Then it got warmer, even to 40 degrees. I was thrilled -- bring on spring!! And now we finally got our snow. The whole winter's worth in one weekend. We shoveled 4 or 5 times, just to keep up. Yesterday we bundled the girls up to go play in the snow while we dug out the driveway. Ella had a great time, and Natalie was iffy on it.
I have purchased new sandals, hoping to bring spring in more quickly.
In other news, I vaguely remember a time when Natalie slept. I may take her in for an ear infection check, just to make sure I'm not getting falsely frustrated. My hunch is that she's just trying to snow Daddy. Four or five times she was up last night. If I go in she pitches a fit and wants Daddy. Daddy has to go in and rock her until she falls asleep again. I'd just feel bad if she had an ear infection. But tell me, does that not just sound like a spoiled child?? Like a habit to be broken??
We'll be going to Brennan's work conference later this week. I always feel bad for the month ahead that I'm excited to go, but I'll miss the girls. Like I'll be away from them for too long. Then it seems about the week beforehand, everything shifts, and I feel like we could use a break from each other. Perhaps they sense it, and that's why they get the extra edge of crazy. God bless Grandma & Papa.

I'd say she's playing dad on the not sleeping. But then again I worked hard for two hours one night making sure that Lily stayed in bed at bedtime (and it wasn't fun for either of us) only to have her throw up. Her first bout of stomach flu ever. So, it never hurts to have it checked out :)
Just remember all the reasons why you live where you do...keys left in ignition, fresh air, slower pace, you know everyone. I miss that. Oh well, we enjoyed the zoo and 71 degrees yesterday ;) It will be spring before you know it. BTW, where did you get your sandals?
