We have been so excited to finally have snow! Of course the first day we got it the snow was barely covering the ground so I explained to Josiah that once the snow covers the grass we can go sledding... then it covered the ground (barely) and we romped around in the snow together when Daddy got home from PA on Tuesday night (He played with Lydia while Josiah and I had some much needed time outside to roam and play...) It was freezing and dark- but who cares!? We desperately needed some fun time out of the house- even if it was just in our yard. We made some snow angels, played "Snow monster" (Josiah chases me yelling, "ROAARR!" and I pretend he is a monster coming to get me) and I pulled him around in the sled a little. Daddy took a few pictures :)
For those of you who have been praying for Michael's Dad... THANK YOU- Dan is doing well and is now back home, slowly recovering. Please pray for his continued health and peace for their family during this time. Hopefully there will be no more speed bumps in his road to recovery... We love you Grampy and we've been praying!!! God bless you!!!
Lydia is getting big and trying to sneak up on us with all her new tricks. She's started rolling over from front to back- just when I get her head down on one side, she flips herself over...but basically out of necessity because she just doesn't want to be on her tummy. But she's also started enjoying her tummy time more and being able to play around a little longer before getting fussy which is nice. Today she was sitting up in her bouncy seat that reclines back- she was sitting herself up to grab and play with the toys! It was too cute. Much to my arguments that she should stay a baby forever... she's trying to show me just how much she's continuing to grow. She's a happy healthy little girl, and starting to become VERY attached to Mommy. Daddy is okay, and big brother is always great, and most of the time Grandma can hold her but, really only Mommy is the BEST. (It's kinda nice... after 9 months of carrying her around and all that nursing... it's a great reward when she is so crazy about me!)
Aunt Laura and Cousin Lucy have come to MD for the long haul until baby number 2 is born. We are SO EXCITED to have them close by, and plan to enjoy lots of play dates since we usually don't always get to have them so close! Tomorrow we are meeting them at the library and Josiah couldn't be more thrilled. As I was getting his PJs on tonight he was telling me all about it, "...and, we can show Lucy the children's section... and we can get the book about Little Quack's New Friend, and we can bring it home!" ha ha ha. He's a happy boy. Potty training is actually still going very well... but we are also "relaxing" on it a little bit (since Mommy and Josiah were stressing eachother out!) and just trying to keep up with life in general and make potty training fit our schedule. He's doing great though and we are really proud of him! We know he'll have it down all the time before ya know it. He's got a plethora of stickers from going "pee pee on the potty" all over the house and I'm starting to find them EVERYWHERE. It's a great reminder of his success though... even if they are on the bottom of my slippers and in Lydia's hair...
I'm falling asleep as I type so off I go to bed... just felt bad that I haven't updated in awhile. I'll post some pictures and then try to post some more soon. Love you all- God Bless!
