Taking applications for Disney World...

We are advertising a vacant spot in the motorhome for the the trip to Disney World this summer. It seems that Sara will be unable to make it do to some phone call that she has to take. All interested applicants apply.
Ha! Ha!

So remember when your parents told you not to do it?

But you did it anyway? Well that is what happened to Addie last night. Addie and Ashley have had the humidifier in their bedroom for the past week because of the dry air and they both have coughs. Mommy said, this is not a toy, don't play with it, it is hot. And so far, everyone has listened. Until last night around 2:00 AM when Addie starts screaming in pain. She had gotten up and tried to move the humidifier and burned her left hand with the steam. She was up all night crying in pain and we did what we could to help with the pain. We ran the hand under cold water, sprayed on an numbing antiseptic, put an icepack on, tylenol, etc. But it was rough. This morning she has blisters all over that part of her hand, as you can see in the photos. I think it will be a long time before we touch anything that Mommy says is hot!




More Snow!!

I love snow! And so do the girls. We got about 5 or 6 inches at least and after Bill blew out the driveway they were out playing in it. It was such a nice day for playing in the snow.

Amber Haircut

Amber decided to go a little shorter this time and cut up to her chin. I think it makes her look even more grown up.


Ashley Haircut

Here is Ashley. She started the haircut marathon by trimming her own hair AGAIN! Don't worry, she will not be doing that again. :)


Addie's First Haircut

Other than cutting her bangs, Addie has never had her hair cut, and she is 3. I just kept waiting for it to do something, but nothing ever happened. So we decided to cut it and see if that helped. Well, not really. She still looks very disheveled, no matter what I do to it. Oh well, eventually it will settle down and look normal.



First Haircut for Alex

Yes, we finally cut his hair. He was looking kinda goofy, so we all went in and lost some hair. He did really well, never cried. He didn't love it, but it wasn't too bad.



Snow

So we got a little snow- maybe a couple inches about a week ago. The girls were thrilled and had to go outside and roll around in it and play in it. It melted the next day, but they had a lot of fun. Amber gave Addie a few rides on the shovel when they weren't moving snow off the slippery driveway.
