Shutter Problems

Our shutter is slowly dying on our camera. And I realized today how much I missed wearing my hair down. Living in a hot, humid climate, working in a clean room, and holding tiny babies who like to pull hair has equaled a lot of bun and pony tail styles. The Great and I were running errands today in feels-like 29 degrees temperatures and were a swirl of big coats and curls. Curls are warm.

Here are some Christmas celebration photos. Our Christmas day included reading from the book of Luke, Squirms being excited about stockings, a visit to my grandparents' home, flash flooding, hiding in a closet because of tornado sirens, power and water outages, and ear infections. It was memorable.

Christmas morning tree, and wagon!

Girl loves stockings.

They can both open their own gifts now!

We are ready to start house hunting. I am addicted to Zillow. The Great is becoming such a little boy, and he loves to have iPad time (he loves it so much we have to restrict it so he will play with toys). Squirms really enjoyed Christmas decorating and all the celebrating this year. I am slowly coming to terms with her turning four next month. Four!!!! It seems so much bigger than three.

And R's parents came to visit us last weekend. They had to listen to me talk about prospective houses and look at pictures on Zillow, but we also let them play trains with the kids a bit too. They brought the kids even more trains and tracks so downstairs now is basically just train tracks. I'll probably need to do a full blog post on the different foods they brought us.

Time to go. Squirms started back to preschool today.
