Happy Valentines

Snow Day!

We had record snowfall last Thursday and Friday. Over a period of 24 hours we had 1 foot of snow! The boys were out of school and thankfully Caroline took a long nap so we could go outside and play. The only thing I could find close to a sled was Preston's snowboard, so I tied a jumprope onto it and pulled the boys around the yard. We also attempted 2 snowmen and threw snowballs at passing cars. Some things you just can't learn at school.

Goodbye Grandma!

Thanks for coming to help us Grandma! We miss you.

Welcome Home Caroline!

Well we are officially home and back on the road to recovery. We actually got home a couple of weeks ago, but blogging about the last couple of weeks was the last thing on my mind and sadly Preston has entered into retirement from the blogging world. (Even after I told him what an awesome job he did on his first post, I even called him Blog Master!)

We had a little bit of a rough start with Carter getting Bronchitis for a week, and Caroline and I getting bits and pieces of that. Thanks to the help of family, friends and endless hours of PBS we are on the mend and looking forward to a week of 40 degree temperatures?

We are having a lot of fun with this sweet girl. She is so easy going and has brought so much happiness into our home.

Time to leave the quiet, peaceful hotel (I mean hospital).

Guess who loves Caroline?

Carter LOVES his new baby which he calls "little fella". He loves to rub her head and kiss her and stack toys all around her in hopes she will start playing with him. Poor guy.

Soak it up Grandma!

She loves her bed! (now we need her to love sleeping in it)

Just a couple of pictures of her room. I used to come and sit in here before she was born and imagine what it was going to be like with a girl. The room is always sunny and warm...what a good match for Caroline!
