Really???? Feb17th was the last time I posted something? Unfathomable. (yes, I've been watching Pride and Prejudice) All I can really say is that I haven't chosen to make time. The expanded version is that I am struggling to find fun and or interesting (to me) things to post here. Particularly when I am keeping up with my photo a day project. I've found that having a complete thought and getting it typed is harder than I imagined, particularly when there is a sweet baby crying or a precocious three year old desperate for my attention. 

So for today, no pictures–just these few sentences as Mark calls out for his pacifier and Mallory is "napping"

It's amazing how tiring it is to look at toys hanging above your head.

Our last day of real snow–more outdoor play and (hooray) SUNSHINE! 

Throwing "snowballs" also know as ice chunks, and ringing the doorbell approximately 900 time. 

I can say with certainty we are enamored of the winter wonderland.

Playing in the snow on a Saturday with Daddy-it doesn't get much better than that in January in Nashville.

Mallory calls the icicles popsicle–she enjoyed breaking them off various things in the yard.

my sweet little snow princess-we love you beyond measure

Snow is not something we see a lot of in Nashville. A heavy "dusting" once or twice a year is lots of snow. Friday 3-4 inches fell at our house. This amazing event was predicted to happen between 1 and 3 am. At 10 it had just begun to flurry. I decided that we had time to run to the library and pick up the Cinderella DVD waiting on us. By the time we left, the roads were scary slick and obscured. Silly Mommy, movies are NOT worth the risk, next time just stay home. (The picture above is our drive way covered in about 2 inches of snow)

lots and lots of snow-for us anyway

And for the record, our department of transportation is NOT prepared to handle this kind of weather. Nor do people here have experience driving in the snow. YIKES!!
