Why do I Blog?
Life is so fast & furious with 3 young children, working from home, ect that I fear I will forget the lovely details of my girls' precious childhood.
My main motivation for blogging is to capture the every day moments...so I don't forget them before I have a chance to scrapbook. Sharing with you is just an added bonus. Keeping this blog has helped me get the photos off my camera's memory card and label/organize them on my laptop. It is the BEST tool I have for scrapbooking. I haven't ever been able to keep a journal, but this I can do. I don't pretend to have anything interesting to say. In fact I'm sure this little blog is boring to you, but to me it is priceless!

3 Where's Rudolf?
Yesterday, Allie came to me with a jacket & sandals proclaiming she was off to play in the snow. What a silly! Her resolve wasn't damped when I insisted she wear all the snow gear: snow pants, coat, gloves, & boots. Once appropriately dressed she jump (literally) outside & into the snow banks. Kylie & I watched out the front window as Allie played in the snow. She even made a snow angle "ALL BY MYSELF" (the new catch phrase).
A little while later, as I was busying about the house, I heard tapping at the back door. There was Allie, minus the boots & gloves (discarded on the back steps). "MOMMY, I SAW TWO REINDEER!" Just as I was about to reminder that this wasn't the North Pole, I looked up to see two real deer jumping through the neighborhood backyards! She was right.
Update: Allie has been going pee-pee's in the potty (big & small) about three times a day for most of the week. I think she might be on to something! She's keeping her diapers dry for the most part, but had no desire to wear big-girl panties. Oh, well. I guess it will happen...eventually.

I have no idea what I did with your number-so forgive me for not calling. Adyson has to go to the doctor at 12:45 today, so once again I'm ditching you! Maybe I'll see you next spring! just kidding! Next week?
That is awesome that Allie is going potty. Peyton goes, and then doesn't, I figure one day it will happen. But I hope she is on to something too!
Today she has worn panties all day. so far so good. I did make her wear 'sleeping panties' (pull-ups) during her nap, but she kept them dry. I'm not going to say she is potty-trained, but she is definitely making progress!
