More Snow....





We wanted to build a snowman, but the sheet of ice on top of the snow kept us from doing that. We took a few pictures and headed back in. Phil made some home-made hot cocoa. It was delicious.

ANNOUNCEMENT!


Took the test on Tuesday! Doctor appointment on Feb. 9. Should be due around Sept. 27.
We are excited! I'm a little nervous about having two little ones, but we'll manage with a lot of help from the grandparents. (hint, hint to Nanny and Nana. lol)

Snow


Phil picked me up from work at 12:30, then we got Mason from daycare. We didn't get home until 1:20. The traffic in town was terrible. We had intentions on playing in the snow, but Mason has been coughing all week, so we didn't want to make him worse. We hope to get out in it tomorrow, if only for a few minutes.


This is something you don't see a lot of in our part of the woods.



Our dogs may have had to much fun.









Nana and Papa came over to eat some Taco Soup tonight. I mixed spices together to create the taco taste because I did not have a packet of taco seasoning. Let's just say, I may have over done the red crushed pepper. The soup was good, but had a KICK to it. I don't normally do a lot with spices, but now I know that red pepper is SPICY!




Hope everyone had a fun snow day!

A Few of Us


"Giddy up, daddy!"


Our favorite time of the day. "Read book, momma, this book!"


He loves Mickey Mouse. It's the only show he will actually stop and watch.


Phil and I think he's going to be a stunt double when he grows up. He's not scared to try anything.

Good news this week: Mason has used his potty the past two mornings. Yay!! As soon as he gets up, we take him straight to the potty. He gets more surprised when the music plays than we do. I try to make a big deal about, like a pee pee dance, clapping, and singing. He looks at me like I've gone crazy! But I don't care as long as he uses the potty.
Mason turned 23 months old today. One month away from turning the BIG 2!
Have a blessed day!

Ahh, the Good Life!

Has it really been over two weeks since the last post? I've been to busy to notice. To be honest, I haven't taken that many pictures. I don't know what's wrong with me.

I have entered a contest at work called, "Fittest of the Fit." I hope this is the motivation I need to start exercising again and lose some weight. I had my weigh in on Monday and the last weigh in is April 12. So, I've got to get myself in gear if I want to win the money or some prizes! They are giving us limited, free access to Harvey's gym, the YMCA, and Curves. I plan on taking advantage of this. Last week I started getting up at 5:15 to do a 25 minute, aerobic video. My plans are to do aerobic during the week and walk/run on the weekends. Wish me luck!

Mason has been his regular bundle of energy. He has become quite the little show off. He loves for people to laugh at him. And the talking, he can say so much these days. It's absolutely precious. Still trying to figure out this potty training stuff. Some days Mason seems interested in using the potty, then other days he ignores it.

Other wise Phil, Mason and I are enjoying the Good Life. We are so blessed! God is Good!
