Silas loves going outside!!!! He walks over to the door a zillion times a day and ask to go out. Ethan took him out for his first playing in the snow experience. He was having so much fun he cried when Ethan brought him in, Silas didn't care that it was 20 degrees outside! I just love the look of pure happiness that they get from such simple things.

Santa Discussions


We took Silas to meet Santa. He didn't cry, but was not happy to be sitting on this strange man's lap. I started to feel bad about even having him meet Santa, I wouldn't want to sit in his lap either. It is really a strange tradition if you think about it. "Lets have our children sit on some strange old mans lap". Maybe I am being really negative but it is kinda weird.

Fire truck


Last Wednesday we had a Carbon monoxide scare!!! I woke up at 7:30am to the alarm going off, at first I was mad at Ethan because I thought he forgot to turn his alarm clock off. I wasn't quite sure what I was suppose to do so I turned to my carbon monoxides Manuel. After reading to get out right away and call 911, I was a little scared. I got Taffy, Silas, and I out to the car where we waited for the fire truck. I was so embarrassed to have them pull up to the front of my house. But then I realized that if Silas was old enough he would really appreciate this, so I had to get a picture of us. We are all ok and were not exposed to very much. Our furnace is in the garage and pumped in the carbon monoxide when Ethan warmed up his car. By the way all my appliances are fixed and Silas is sleeping again, hopefully life will get back to normal now!

ugh!!!!

Everything I touch is breaking!!!! Our dishwasher just went out, and last week our computer broke. Today we found water damage in the garage from the water heater. So needless to say I am not in the best of moods! I was hoping that Thanksgiving would be a nice break from life, which it was, however it was also a break from sleep! Silas couldn't sleep the whole weekend, I have officially been welcomed to motherhood now! Seriously Life can get so busy!
