Spring Wonderland

Yesterday morning we woke up to a wintery wonderland....what? You say it's April, I know! But we were "Lucky" enough to have an April snow-shower. Luckily it melted by mid day, and was gone, but I really wasn't happy. Although it was pretty I am ready for spring

My first snow fall

Mom was telling me about their friends son who was younger than me and had his own blog so I thought I would write some entries on Moms blog every once in awhile. Especially since she is so busy taking care of me all the time.

This past week I finished my 2nd week at daycare. I have a lot of fun there. My teacher Megan is my favorite. She works in the morning and plays with me a lot. I really like the teachers in the afternoon too. In the morning the boys crawl around me and play and I live to watch them. They are pretty entertaining and there are so many toys there. I can't wait until I am older and can play with the toys too.

Early this week Mom thought I had an ear infection. I tried to tell her it was just my cold and I was just crabby but she took me to the doctor who told her the same thing. I can't wait until mom and dad can hear me when I talk. I cry now and most of the time they know what I want.

Saturday mommy woke me up and showed me the outside. It sure looked different. It used to be this color green(at least that's what moms calls it) and now she says it's white. She says it's too cold for me to go outside in it unless she bundles me up. I like being warm so I would rather just look at it through the window. Dad was excited because he apparently LOVES this white stuff. He was telling me about his skiing(whatever that is) and how he can't wait to teach me. He says it's fun and I will like it too. But apparently mommy doesn't so I will have to take his word for it.

Mommy says I am going through a growth spurt. It must be hard work because I am eating a lot more than I niry do and I am getting up in the middle of the night. I love seeing
mommys face at night but she looks so tired. After this spurt thing I am going to try let her sleep again.

Well that's all I have to go nap!!

Snow Storm

This is not baby related - but I wanted to write about it. We are expected to have our biggest snow storm of the year, and probably the decade starting tonight. Actually it's starting right now, it's now snowing and blowing like crazy.
We are supposed to get 15 to 20 inches of snow and I am getting a little upset, while I love the snow, it's coming at such a bad time. We are supposed to go to my Cousin's house for Christmas Eve tomorrow and I am not sure if that's going to happen. So we will just have to play it by ear and if it does happen, my parents might not be able to come, so it just wouldn't be the same.....First year ever we might not have Christmas with the Flipp side. :(

Update: 12/24 - We are canceling the Flipp Family Christmas - moving it to Sunday, so at least we will still get to see the family. Mike and I are rescheduling our brunch at Hell's Kitchen to next Sunday (1/3) so that we can go to Christmas...Things aren't exactly turning out the way we had planned, but at least we still get to see the family. The above picture is what we woke up to this morning. I will take another one tonight and tomorrow morning to see how much snow we really get. It's hard to see but you can barely make out the wall at the back of the yard.

Our First Big Snow Fall

Today was our first big snowfall of the year....and it came very very late. We got a few inches in October, but nothing major. Tonight it took me 1/2 hour to get home from work - doesn't sound like a lot of extra time, but it was double. I was pretty lucky, as was Mike, most people had a 1 to 2 + hour drive home. 

Thank Goodness we live close to work. To the left is a picture of Mac out in the yard playing in the snow. She loves this time of year and I am sure she is excited that the snow is finally here!!

Little Peanut, I can't wait for you to see the snow next year. While I hate driving in it, and I don't like the cold all that much, I really love how the snow looks in on the lawn. How the yards look. It's so peaceful and pretty to watch the snow come down and brings back so many memories growing up.
