Dodged the bullet

Well- our fears were relieved this morning when we learned that B gets to keep his job. I don't even feel disappointed about not getting to go to weekend option for some reason. I think I am just happy to not have the weight of supporting my family entirely on my shoulders. I am kind of in the mode of working extra now so hopefully I'll keep it up for awhile to get us some things we desire. Now G can get a new car seat (since he's growing) and we can keep saving up for my VAN!! WOOHOO! heh.

It's a winter wonderland here- I think we have about 3-4 inches on the driveway right now and it's still snowing. It's about 2 degrees so no playing outside for us! Grandma Lana took M to see Addison's school Christmas play this morning- not sure if she's coming back or not- depends on the roads. Doesn't M look so cute ready for the program? Not thrilled with the picture taking. G and I are here changing sheets and finishing up laundry (and blogging). He's so animated when he's by himself. G showing off his new body. Doesn't he look so old in this picture? He's so close to walking but he's been nearly walking for a couple of months now. He'll probably be late at the rate he's going. He's so fast crawling I think walking would irritate him.This is about the only view we are getting of M lately. She's much to busy coloring and "writing her name" to talk to us. She knows that her name is "M-I-R-A" but she wouldn't have a clue what the letters actually looked like if she saw them. She'll say, "I wite my name. M, I, R, A." Then she'll make a squiggly line. Pretty impressive if you ask me. Sadly- she's definitely right handed- there's no doubt about it.

Sounds like you guys are getting hit with the same storm we are getting hit with today. It's probably 2degrees here as well with 3-4 inches falling, if not already. BURRRRR COLD!
