Baby its cold outside!

We got another blast of snow and cold and on Sunday we were able to just stay home and lounge in our jammies all day. Myla didn't mind, she was happy to play with her toys, watch a little Mary Poppins and take a nice nap. She's been pretty funny lately - usually she quacks for yes. Or, okay turns into o-quack. For a while we were all animals - mommy-duck, daddy-pony, Myla-penguin. Now we quack. Its actually pretty cute. She's also into lunches and tea parties with the sandwich and cookie sets she got for Christmas. We got her some little plates with the gift card she got from Omaha and now its the best thing to do! If she's not downstairs playing train with her daddy.

We had a check in for baby yesterday and were surprised to find out that they are measuring her to be about 4 pounds 12 ounces! That's more than Myla was when she came home! Everything checked out great and I think the doctor even bounced into the room, we were all doing so well. Its kind of unfamiliar territory, but we're liking it.

Johnny and my dad and brother Jeff and family friend Mr. Bill painted Myla's room yesterday - after us having the paint since, oh, October! It looks really good and I'm excited to put some finishing touches on it that I've been collecting for about a year now. It looks finally like a little girl's room. Next up, baby's room...

what kind of train did you get Myla? have your Daddy or Mom call so we can find out. we are stuck here in the snow ourselves. Aunt Kirsty and Grandpa and I drove home from Glenwood last night about 35 miles and hour in that blowing thick snow and made it home safe. What color is your room? good to get a lot of help on that painting business.xoxoxo Omaha
