Oh the Weather Outside is Frightful

and I'm too cheap to turn the fireplace on!!!
the kids were freezing after playing outside and I turned it on for about 10 seconds...

Justin is at a work meeting (well was when I started this post) - and I decided to take a few minutes to catch up on blogging. We had 5 things we were supposed to go to tonight. A conference for Mason (but he did not give me the right info so we missed it,) the zoo lights opening, Justin had another work meeting that he missed and the calling hours for Doug. In case you are not a BTeam blog reader - check out what the moms in her neighborhood made the family:

These are bears made out of Doug's shirts - how incredibly cool is that? One for Sheri and each of the kids. A true treasure.


We got some wacky, crazy, snowy weather again this evening. Ella and Si went out and played in it a bit while I made dinner. Si gave me a bit of a disgusting fright when he walked in saying "blah, guck, blah" and I saw snow and brown goop hanging from his mouth - I'm truly hoping it was just mud.
Ella lost another tooth recently - the tooth fairy was a little late getting to her but we told her Miss T. Fairy does not work on the weekends...


Dinner tonight was pizza and I cut up carrots, radishes and celery. Silas absolutely CHOWS on celery - the kid will say about 20 times "more cel-ry, more cel-ry" and Ella loves radishes and carrots. I cut up REAL carrots, not those watery baby ones - I always forget how much more flavorful real carrots are.

Speaking of dinner, the other night we were all eating dinner and Si had some broccoli on his nose. Justin picked it off the end of his nose and put it on his plate. Silas looked at him (much like the face in the picture below but without red eyes) and said
"why you put my boogie on your plate??"


He's been saying the funniest things lately but most would be Too Much Information for most. Though I will need to blog them eventually so I don't forget them.
He is also doing a very good job with the potty training.

Ella had her Parent-Teacher conference this week. She is going a bang-up job in Kindergarten. of course her teacher LoVeS her..."always as sweet as can be" - I'm going to video the head-spinning-spewing-green-goop thing that she does when she doesn't get her way - to show her teacher...

One year anniversary today

Justin just asked me how long we've been doing our weekly dinner menus...I pulled them out and oddly enough February 25th, 2007 was our very first day of planning - how about that. And I've said this a THOUSAND times...it has been a life saver and cut out almost all the stress of dinner making - I will never go back to not having it all planned out...at least until the kids are grown and Justin and I can go out whenever we want!

This week's menu is:
Sunday - jambalaya
Monday - Beef tips and noodles (crockpot)
Tuesday - Hamburgers
Weds - Cheesy penne pasta (crockpot)
Thursday - chicken wings
Friday - homemade pizzas
Saturday - Spaghetti and meatballs
