I had planned to do a New Year's post but Wyatt has been suffering from a double ear infection for the past three weeks and he is just now starting to feel better and sleep through the night. I've been exhausted and barely making it through the day. But, now we're on our second round of antibiotics that seem to be working and I'm starting to feel human again. It's amazing what lack of sleep will do to you!
Last night we got about 6 inches of snow followed by freezing rain this morning, so we are enjoying a snow day, which has turned into another one for tomorrow (schools closed). We enjoyed spending the morning outside playing with the neighborhood.
Have I said lately how much I love our neighborhood and our neighbors? I am so happy that we moved here!
Jason and I commented how we have no snow gear for the boys (who would have thought we needed it living in Georgia?) and then our next door neighbor posted on Facebook that she had extra boots and snowpants for anyone needing them. So Jack was able to enjoy the snow without getting cold or wet. And since Ethan basically stayed in our arms, he stayed dry too!
Our front yard is perfect for sledding, and eventually all the kids in the neighborhood made their way over to sled with us. It was nice to visit with the moms and dads while the kids played.
Here is Jack enjoying his first time down the hill.
Here Jason took Ethan down for his first sled ride, which he seemed to enjoy but wasn't too keen on doing it again!
Later, when Wyatt woke up from his nap, Jason took him for a sled ride too!
Some of you may remember this hat from when Jack was little. I loved it on him and it's just as cute on Ethan. I can't wait to see how it looks on Wyatt in a year or two too.
Here is Ethan walking in the snow and ice. He did it, but wasn't to happy about it, or wanting to keep at it too long. But he is walking so much more and I'm very optimistic that he will be walking all the time soon!
Hope you enjoyed our snow day, we sure did. Now we're getting ready for some soup for dinner and an evening playing the Wii in the warmth of our lovely home.
Love to you all!
Love to you all!
