It's still snowing!

It started snowing yesterday. The superbowl was on, we had the Stecker's and the Crow's over. I made wings for the first time from scratch. They didn't look pretty, but they tasted good. The kids played, Nicole spilled on both of our couches (haha!), Sammy cruised around without pants and the kids took turns stealing each others' sippy cups. Pretty good night!

I took Amelie outside today to play in the snow. She LOVED it...until she got a face full of it. I did not get a photo of her whitewashed face, that's just mean. I wiped her off and brought her back inside. She had a great time while it lasted.









Our place is pretty much baby proofed as long as the gate to the kitchen is closed along with the bathroom and bedroom doors. Amelie spent the morning walking around leaving toys everywhere. I put her down for her morning nap and was checking my email when I looked up and noticed this...



Abby and I took Sam and Ami to story time on Friday. They are so great when the get around other kids. Since the kids don't go to daycare, we want to get them around other kids to socialize. We also had a play date with our photographer friend and her kids last week. Since then, Amelie's walking has progressed from the testing phase, to the full blown walker. Even the difference from last night to today was amazing.

Unfortunately, she fell down in the dining room while walking in her PJ's (with non-skid feet) and hit her head on the ground. She reached up for me, crying and immediately got a big bruisy bump. I nursed her so I could put some ice on it without her throwing it across the room, but she stopped crying about 10 seconds after she started. That girl is fearless and I'm probably going to have to follow her around wherever she goes with a first aid kit for the rest of her life.

I have been meaning to learn to embroider these last few weeks. I finally started today. I am embroidering some kitchen towels as my first project, here is the first one.


Yesterday we went to lunch with Grandma D and Uncle Torey. Ami had a good time throwing food all over the floor. Never though I'd be the mom with the baby that made a huge mess in a restaurant, but I am. Sorry all. Here she is trying on Grandma's Sunglasses.



Last, but not least, Amelie in all her super hyper glory.
