snow snow and more snow!!!

We were officially dumped on by the snow fairies!!! WOW what a storm. Tried to get to work today, what a joke, I slid for a couple miles then decided to head home, when I turned around, I got stuck...what fun. If the storm would have been over I would have chanced it, but the fact we were to get another 6 inches or so I decided to head home, better safe than sorry.... So we decided to make the best of our day, of course Jeremy was off. SO when he decided to head out to do the first round of shoveling, Sydney and I joined him for some winter fun! As I sit here and type, I'm thankful I'm indoors now, the wind is whipping like crazy out there...let the drifting begin! Should make it interesting to get to work tomorrow! Enjoy some pictures of the snow!

"Hang on to your Helmets!!!" and First tooth!!!

Sydney's quote of the day. I guess she had way too much fun snowmobiling with Pappy this weekend. Sunday night while we were still trying to dig out of the pile of clothes from out trip Syndey was occupying herself with the wastebasket and if that didn't get our attention she looks at us through the metal wiring of the basket and says "Hang on to your helmets!" What a kid. Seriously, never a dull moment with her around! Sydney got to spend a few days with Mimi and Pappy this weekend and had a blast! Only thing better than a sleepover is a sleepover with snow. Tina told us when Sydney woke up that morning she called her over to the window to see the winter wonderland and Sydney's response was "WOW! That's amazing!! Snowmobile" Since the summer when she first laid eyes on Pappy's other toys in the pole barn, she's been asking for a ride on the snowmobiles. And of course Pappy promised her when we had enough snow on the ground he will take her for a ride. Luckily that weekend finally came and what a perfect opportunity when Sydney got to visit for a couple of days. We are so greateful to have such great parents in our lives who love our kids!!! Although she had a wonderful time, when Mommy and Daddy came to get her, she was ready to come home. We walked in and right away she jumped up and started gather her things. I have to admit, it was a good feeling, knowing that she missed us as much as we missed her.

So in other news, Daphney is getting her first tooth!!! 3 1/2 months and teething! If it wasn't for my good friend Lisa, we never would have known! I've always had an issue with letting babies suck on your hands. I always felt that's what binkys and teethers were for, not people's dirty hands....I don't know why, but it's a pet peave of mine...but again I need to say, if Lisa didn't allow her to do that, we probably wouldn't have found it. Seriously, who would be looking for a tooth at 3 1/2 months old? And of course we barely had any symptoms. I mean if she was fussy, or drooling, or ran a fever or runny nose I would know what to look for, but nothing. All I could say was anything put in front of Daphney, she took straight to her mouth. Hands, clothes and burp cloths. Looking back, Friday night she spent most of the night playing and chewing on her burp cloth. So here we are...is my baby really teething? Apparently the fast forward button is still stuck.....
