Wednesday . . .

I took this picture from the sidewalk outside our front door yesterday morning, after we'd had some pretty nasty weather the night before. The pond looked pretty all frozen, today you can't even see it because we got a few inches of snow last night.








When I got back upstairs I thought it was funny to see the kids' different reactions to my being gone for a minute. Lauren seemed a bit concerned. David did too, can you tell?! I'm not sure he even noticed I was gone :oD

Well, today has been a pretty eventful day! This morning was all laundry and packing and last minute errands getting Chris ready to leave for Virginia for a week. After Chris headed out at 11:30 I got lunch for the kids and myself and then took David to school. Lauren and I decided to head to the grocery store while David was in school. As we were in the checkout line I realized that Lauren had turned into the "great exploding baby"!! We got through the line and headed to the bathrooms to try to salvage the clothes (and Lauren) and get a clean diaper. Because I like to be prepared I had, of course, brought a change of clothes. They just happened to be in the van! Poor Lauren had to go shirtless (with her coat on of course, it was really cold out) to the van to get some clean clothes. By the time we got done with our adventure in the bathroom it was time to pick David up from kindergarten so off we went. Poor David had been so excited about going outside to play with Lauren after school, but we had to postpone it until tomorrow because as soon as we got home Lauren's coat and everything else she was wearing went into the washer. Lauren went straight into the tub!! She now smells much better and both kids are sleeping peacefully :oD We'll head outside first thing in the morning!

David has karate after school tomorrow and then we are off to Marshall for the weekend, Deb says there is plenty of snow so I should have some good pictures of the kids to post when we get back! I hope you all have a great weekend too!!

Love,

Chris, Megan, David & Lauren
