Long time ... no new posts???

Sorry for the long blogging hiatus. Life with 3 children seems to get busier everyday, but more fun as well. There is one main reason for the lack of posts ... and his name is Henry! If Henry is awake, then chances are he is up to something. He seems to require my full attention which makes for a full day. Here is an example of him up to his mischief ...

Blowing his nose on napkins while sitting on top of the kitchen table. Boys are a different breed! He is such a mess. We jokingly call him "Gov" (short for Governor) because of his friendly manner. When out places, he seeks out people to talk to and gives everyone a big grin and wave. Bart says he is prepping for a life in politics, but maybe he is just a born salesman like his Dad and Bubsy (Bart's Dad). At 16 months, Henry certainly keeps us on our toes and gives us something to smile about - can't imagine life without our little "Gov"!

P.S. - For all you folks who like to make fun because my kids always match ... check out his mismatched pajamas!

Hope to post some Easter pics later today.

Fun in the snow!

How excited were my kids last night when it snowed the entire way home from Gracie's basketball practice? Super excited! Gracie and Mia just had to play a bit when we got home and catch some snowflakes on their tongues. Nothing like the excitement on your child's face at the first real snow of the season!
Bart tried to burst our bubble and tell us that school wouldn't be called off for Tuesday, but Gracie, Mia, and me ... we believed! The phone rang at 6:15 AM this morning with a call from Christian Heritage saying that school was cancelled for the day. Yippee! I think I was just as excited as Gracie for a snow day at home.

After breakfast, I bundled up all three kids and we headed outside. They looked like hobos in their mismatched outfits. Gracie and Mia got right to making snowballs for a good old snowball fight, and Henry happily marched around checking out this funny white stuff covering the ground. It was a great day! Sometimes we just need a little more time at home to simply play, play, play. Here are some pics from our day.
