It's Cold!!

We have been freezing this past week, and unfortunately our heater can't keep up. We wake up with 66 degrees in the morning and warm up to a whoping 68 degrees by bedtime. As cold as it has been we have been staying in a lot. It is great that we have neighbors, otherwise I think I might lose my mind being cooped up like this. There was one day this week after it had snowed that I decided to brave the sub zero temperatures and take Brynlee out to play in the snow. She loved it and I froze but we lasted about 20 minutes and it was fun to see her playing in it. Lets hope we warm up soon!

Gracen likes to sit in his exersaucer, he is still a little wobbly so we just put his arms up over the edge and stick a blanket behind him. Usually this entertains him for at least 15 minutes.
Brynlee loves to read to Gracen.


Uchenna makes me laugh. I'm not so sure that chess will appreciate this picture too much. Brynlee kept trying to make him put on her princess clothes. I think he just liked the crown. Brynlee loves to play with him, I think it is because most of the time she gets her way. One day Uchenna will learn.

Oh my gosh! That is so funny with Uchenna!! That cracked me up!
You're so good to get out with Brynlee, I hope when Addie wants to go out and play (obviously when she's older) I'll go out with her, I hate going out in the cold!!

Your kids are absolutely darling! What a smile they both have! Your sure welcome for the clothes, they aren't anything fancy, but they do the job right? ha. Its good to see that they can get a little bit more wear out of them.
