Snow

Snow days have very little impact on my life these days... but they still make me so happy! I guess I still remember the excitement and joy a snow day brought. We ended up with maybe six inches or so. And its cold, windy, and the roads were a mess today. So there's no surprise school was cancelled up here. I'm definitely going to be calling the ENT office in the morning and try to take advantage of the winter day... surely someone will cancel and we can get Milo in.

Speaking of Milo... we took him out to "play" in the snow today. We had big plans of taking him in a sled ride around the block. Two problems. One... he hated it. The wind was blowing the snow right in his poor little face. Two... I had him layered so heavily that his body would fold in half to sit. LOL Oh well... we got some cute pictures out of it. We'll try again in better conditions.

Milo also has his first runny nose. He'll be six months old on the 15th... so making it six whole months without so much as a sniffle is pretty good if you ask me. Although he's supposed to get a vaccine this week... but since his body is obviously busy dealing with a cold... we'll give it a rest and reschedule for next week or the week after. He also has his six month appointment this week. I can't wait to see how much he's grown. :) Its always so fun. I thank God everyday for my happy, healthy baby boy.

Poor Nathan is out there right now shoveling the driveway. Its not a big driveway but that snow is heavy!!! And of course, its still snowing. Yuck. That's the down side to snow. I'm also very thankful for my husband who goes out there and does it without complaining. All he asks is for some hot coffee when he's done. I can handle that.

Oh and the parade last night was a lot of fun. We sat on the float in line up for about 30 minutes... then Milo fell asleep the minute we started to move. So he kind of slept through the actual parade, but it was fun. It was a great excuse to bundle up and snuggle up together.

I put Milo down an hour ago and I haven't had to go in there once yet. I would normally be happy, but I'm worried about his breathing with being so congested. I have a feeling I'll be sleeping especially light tonight. But that's ok.

Stay warm and safe, wherever you are!!
