Snow! (for real this time...)

well last night we had our first and probably only snow storm of the season. It started around 8PM and produced heavy winds, sleet, and about 2 inches of snow and ice. Addison woke up and looked outside in amazement. She was so excited that she wouldnt even eat breakfast before going outside. We bundled her all up, and took her out only for her to whine about everything and exclaim "I too cold, Mommy!". She didnt like wearing her mittens because she couldnt really maneuver in them, but also didnt like getting cold. Not to mommy's surprise, our little princess seems to be a beach bunny. After we came inside and I got her to eat breakfast, she was looking at some of the pictures on the digital frame and said "I miss beach, mommy." Me, too, Addison, me too. Not too much longer and we will be lounging on the beaches of Aruba! Only three months to go!

I took this snow day as an opportunity to clean and take some pics of the rest of the house. We are far from done with the decorating...we are still looking for wall hangings, lamps, curtains, etc. But this will give you the idea. :)
We went to Fredericksburg this weekend to visit with baby Ava. It was a great visit, we managed to visit with everyone in the little bit of time that we were there :) Addison wasnt as Anti-Ava as she was before, although Aunt Taras house had plenty of things (and cats) to distract her. She did give Ava a kiss before we left, so we are making progress! :)
We came home to find that our downstairs heating unit (thank goodness we have two!) fried itself while we were gone, so its currently about 55 degrees downstairs, and it feels like the icy tundra. We have had someone out to look at it, but it looks like its not getting fixed until tomorrow, so while Josh is at work today, Addison and I are hibernating upstairs. I brought up snacks and lucky for us the playroom is upstairs, so we are bunkered down until its time to bundle up for lunch!
Hope everyone is safe, warm, and snuggling on this snow day!
