Snow/Ice Day

Yesterday, I didn't have the day care kids, because there was snow/ice.  We decided to make play dough with Lila and Isaac to keep them busy.  Then after the roads cleared up, we decided to head to the mall and let the kids play in the play area.  

New Diaper

One evening after Lila went to bed, I sewed my first diaper.  I think it turned out pretty cute.

While Grandma and Poggie are enjoying a 15 day cruise, Lila and I are here in Virginia watching the kids my mom takes care of.   I think Lila is having fun, but also a little overwhelmed with all the kids running around.

All lined up and ready to load into the car.

This morning we had a 2 hr delay, so Lila and I played outside for a little while.

Lunch Time

Great Grandmas

Lila got to visit with both her Great Grandmas in one weekend.  On Saturday we stopped in PA to visit with Great Grandma Bea and Sunday we went to Mananas to visit GG.  It was so nice to see both of them.

Albany

The day we got home from Cincinnati, we unpacked and immediately repacked so we could fly to Albany that night.  Lila and I were going to visit my sister (and family) and meet her new cousin.  Lila had so much fun playing with Isaac and loved her new baby cousin Elliott.

Christmas Week

This year we spent Christmas in Cincinnati.  We had a wonderful time visiting with family and friends.  

Before we left for Cincinnati, Lila opened this kitchen/diner from Grandma & Poggie

Good-bye Cincinnati

Let it Snow!

When we got to Cincinnati there was snow on the ground, and I couldn't wait to see what Lila thought.  We bundled her up (she could barely walk with all the clothes) and let her explore.  Although we didn't last long outside, she had fun.

Having fun
