Snow DAZE!

Well - we call them snow days, but really they're ICE DAYS! It's hard to get anywhere right now because of all the ice. The driving isn't safe. The trying to walk outside at all isn't safe. And the windshield has been in the single digits and even the negative single digits.

We're out of school - for the 3rd day in a row - and trying to entertain ourselves the best we can.

Day 1 - was spent with Daddy home from work too. We had a family TV and chill out day. No pictures - we really took it EASY!!!

Day 2 - Finding more to do INSIDE the house!

I spent a lot of the day making an apron with the pattern and materials my mom bought for me this weekend while my parents were visiting:
The Front:

and . . . The Back (kind of hard to see with the pattern showing through - but you get the idea):

They also dropped off a big freezer for us (for the garage - ours on the refridgerator in the kitchen was taken over by all the MILK from Augie when he was nursing and we're assuming the same for Anthony - we really need the extra room in the freezer)
. . . and a really awesome chair that matches the decor in our playroom . . .
I LOVE THIS CHAIR!!! It is just F-U-N!!!

Augie worked out with the 2 lb medicine balls!



And then tried to relax (we're learning to SIT in our chair - NO STANDING OR FLIPPING OFF THE SIDE ALLOWED!)


Day 3 - we're getting CABIN FEVER - that's the reason for our title!

Augie is restless - hence the shirt I put on him this morning (it's a 2T - eek)

and wants to be held and carried everywhere - lots of attention needed - but hard to resist sometimes:


but he's still playing in between.
I'm on the computer (first time in these 3 days actually) doing a little catching up on pictures, blogging, etc.

Next I plan on doing some more crafts -
Making a new badge holder for school with some beads I have.
Finishing a gift for a friend's baby that's on the way - she's 1 of the 7 teachers at my school that's pregnant!
Painting Anthony's letters for his wall so that his name is there and ready to greet him when he arrizes.
And a number of cleaning tasks are on the list as well. If there's no school tomorrow, I might actually go stir crazy myself - it makes it hard for me to be productive . . .
If I do it all today, there won't be anything left for tomorrow!

So, until tomorrow . . . PRAYERS FOR ALL TO STAY WARM AND COZY AND SAFE!!!
