Lazy Sunday

Well, we're trapped in the house again. It has been bitterly cold the last few days and now snow. Lots of it. Maybe 8 inches so far. Ugh.

Friday night, K and I went to my company's annual kickoff party and had a good time. Yesterday, we took the girls out for breakfast and ran a few errands, had a nice long afternoon nap. And then I fell asleep on the couch around 10 last night. Poor S went to bed around 8:30 and never seemed "settled". She was coughing quite a bit, which seemed kind of strange since her cold ended at least a few days earlier. Around 11:15, I heard her and went up, and the poor baby got sick. All over me. Nice. This was the second bad Saturday night in a row. Last weekend, we took her to dinner with friends while we were at a sleepover. She was fussy the whole time and cried most of the way home until the last five minutes. We thought she had fallen asleep in the car, but when we got home and went to get her out, we realized she was sitting in a puddle of a dirty diaper. We got her in the house, stripped her down, and gave her her second bath of the day.

Anyway, she seems much better today and we were hoping to make it to church since we were snowed in last Sunday morning. No luck. The snow was already coming down fast and furious at 7AM. So, we got up and got moving. We baked brownies and stuffed and roasted a chicken for lunch. We plan to just eat munchies while watching football this afternoon. We're hoping for an all-PA Super Bowl, but it would really be much easier for the Steelers if the Eagles would lose today.

K is now baking bread and then I'm going to try to pre-prep some dinners for this week. Sophie is taking a good long nap. I need to do some paperwork and filing. Gosh, I'm ready for summer already. I think we're going to pass on our usual few days in the White Mountains for February school vacation week and wait until maybe early April to go up for a weekend. And what to do for April vacation week? Not sure yet, but warmth sounds nice. Of course, after below-zero temps the last few mornings, anything over 20 is starting to sound "warm".
