Winter.......fun???

So....we got a little snow this winter. At first, it is fun and pretty. Then it gets a little cold and slippery, slowly becoming an annoyance to get out and about. Shortly after, it gets depressing and even gives a sense of claustrophobia. And finally, it gets dangerous and damaging, leaving leaks in my closet and a caved in gutter on the roof. I can officially say, I hate the winter.




Trying to get creative while suffering from major cabin fever. Emma has had a "real" fever for the past 5 days, I finally took her to the doctor this morning and he told me it was just a cold and to ride it out. I wanted to get on my knees and beg him for some drugs- if not for her- then for me! I seem to have caught whatever it is she has. In the meantime....we love forts. Or, "tunnels" as Emma calls them.


And to top it all off- I had this gigantic splinter stuck in my heel. Caught it INDOORS. Yup, inside, from our wood floors that can only be described as giving the house "character".


Being that this post has been so positive, I warn you now to turn off your sound, because as we watch this amazing momentous occasion of Levi scooting his way across the floor- you can hear the frustration in my voice as I am asking Emma to stop distracting him and JUST. SIT. DOWN.!

It is great that he is getting more and more mobile. He has been rolling all over the place lately, but this one was funny. I put him down in my room- sitting up- and went into the bathroom. Shortly after, he was sitting in the bathroom with me. He had actually scooted himself on his bottom all the way in there.
