Pink Hearts

Pink heart shaped pancakes. It's gonna be a good day!

It was a good day even though Eisley woke up at 1:00 am and could not go back to sleep. At about 3:30 I was laying on the floor of her room rubbing her foot, attempting to calm her back to sleep when she literally FLEW out of her bed. She was standing, I was rubbing her foot and all of the sudden I felt something fly at me and land on my stomach. It was my precious daughter, she did not cry a peep, just snuggled in close to me, breathing heavily with a light coating of sweat on her forehead. How she managed to throw herself out of her crib, I have no idea. I guess I'll have to raise the side of the crib. The picture below is the height of the crib when she performed her act of passion? anger? perseverance?

Freshly fallen snow

The morning started off long. But I made up for it by packing our morning full of fun activities. After all, we had a beautiful coating of freshly fallen snow and temps in the 20s. Doesn't that just inspire a fun day!? By noon, I thought for sure I had worn the kids out enough to ensure I'd get to rest while the kids rested. I was wrong, one little girl, who shall remain nameless decided her little 14 month old body does not need to rest, therefore I did not get a rest. That's ok though, I survived. However, Eric can attest to the fact that I was not very pleasant to be around come sundown.

Anyway, here is a photographic synopsis of our fun activities!

There is nothing like freshly fallen snow that just calls to be PLAYED WITH.

Freshly fallen snow is meant to be EATEN!

Does anyone out there think there's a problem with eating CLEAN freshly fallen snow? I didn't even think twice about it until Eric asked me if it was safe. Then of course I had to google it and I found conflicting opinions. How sad would it be if freshly fallen snow is not safe!? Well, hopefully it is, since we had alot of fun eating it!

And of course, freshly fallen snow is meant to be PLAYED IN!
