Friends, Sickies and Fun!

We have had such a mix of weather here! First lots of snow and then some "warmer" temperatures that turned our beautiful snow to gray mush. Then rain and now a little snow again! As long as we get a little white on the ground for Christmas, I'll be happy:)


I figured out a solution to taking Eliana and Baby C to school:) I'm not sure if it will work for the super cold days but they look awfully cute in there!!

Yesterday morning, we were invited to Baby C's house to have Christmas breakfast with our good friends. It was such a great way to start out our day! We have been so blessed by their friendship and hope it will be a lifelong one!



After we hung out for awhile, we decided to drive over to the cute little zoo nearby since it was free! We found this handsome devil there. Okay, maybe "handsome" is a bit too strong of a word....Poor guy. Those teeth!

"And I have to live with him!"

It was such a nice little zoo with petting zoo animals, a fox, deer, racoons, bobcats and more. By the time we left, they flipped on the zoo lights. It was such a great day!


This poor little lady was absolutely exhausted. She begged all the way home to try on her new moby wrap for Baby Anna. How CUTE is that?? Baby C's mommy made that for Eliana. She was actually thrilled to pieces to have it on until I left the room to get my phone and take a picture and then she melted down and begged to go to bed! (better picture of this coming soon!)

She was sound asleep by 4:45, even refusing to eat dinner. She cried out a few times through the night which was strange but it all makes sense now because she woke up and started throwing up around 5am and didn't stop for almost 5 hours:( Poor little lady!!

That is a very hard sickness for a three year old to have. She absolutely hated throwing up and kept telling me she "was better" and had "no more frow ups" even while she was throwing up. She slept off and on this morning and was just miserable. And then all of the sudden at 10am, she sat up and said she felt better (for real this time!), smiled and got down and started walking around! She has held down a little sprite/gatorade mix (our specialty cocktail for times such as these) for about an hour and a half now and is watching Dora!

Now to pray the rest of us don't get this because we're supposed to be traveling tomorrow!!

Now for some fun news!


Ben is traveling here for an interview next month. Any guesses where it is??

Is it out of the United States? Like in England? The buildings look so old!

Ya, that looks like a European city. But I have no idea where!
