Another Snow Day!

Just when I thought spring was around the corner we got more snow dumped on us.  Fun indoor activities were required while Daddy was outside shoveling!

Blizzard - 2013

Every year for his birthday all Dan asks me for is a "blizzard".  This year his wish almost came true.  You know that saying.. a day late and a dollar short.   Ryann LOVED being out in the snow, and constantly requested to go outside.  She would take her outdoor jacket and attempt to put it on with the hopes that she would be lucky enough to end up outside. 

The blizzard allowed us to get a bunch of stuff done around the house, as it feels like we are always on the go on the weekends and never have time to get things done.   Ryann made 4 trips outside, played with finger paints, playdoh and stickers, and was in a great mood for being trapped in the house.  Ry 

We were very lucky not to lose our power this storm.  We kept the heat cranked up, rocked some crazy hair, and comfy jammies and had lots of fun family time.  

Pumpkin Painting

While it isn't quite late enough in the season to carve pumpkins our house needed a little holiday decoration with a Ry touch.  Ry was gifted the perfect size pumpkin from my cousin Colin this weekend so today we I helped her decorate it for the holidays.

Step 1: Tape up pumpkin with Painting tape.
Step 2:  Find your husband's old sheets from the 90's painting sheets.
Step 3:  Put Ry in clothes that don't fit
Step 4: Put Momma in clothes OK to get messy.
Step 5: Paint
Step 6: Shower

 

Hi-Ho-Hi-Ho...

...it's off to daycare I go!!! As a daycare Mom I think I will always wonder what it is my one year old does all day.  From who she plays with, why she eats so much better at daycare than at home, and what she looks like when she is sleeping... it's all part of who she is.  Until she can tell us, Ry's day care provider was nice enough to take a few shots of her and her friends throughout the day.  

Last night I had taken the time to pre-pack Ry's lunch, but forgot to pack mine.  Ry only did minor damage to the toy room while I was getting ready.

 

Story time for the "big" kids.  

Our little book work doing some independent reading... although I have to think Miss J may have posed this one.  

Apparently the toys on the lower shelf weren't good enough.  

 

Whenever I drop Ry off she heads right for the house.  Pretty sure it is one of her favorite places to hang out.  

Maybe S wasn't one of the two boys Ry made cry today from stealing toys from?

 

Nap time!
