Snow Day

Matt and I planned to go to work and take Emily to daycare despite the treacherous weather today. We all rode in my car since it does better in bad weather. Everything was good on the way to Matt's work. We didn't slip or slide on the streets like yesterday. The sleet really helped out and gave us more traction. Anyway, once we dropped Matt off at work I went to drop Emily off at daycare. As we were getting closer I noticed that there weren't any cars in the parking lot and then I saw that all the lights were off in the building. The daycare was closed today. We checked the local closings and didn't see the daycare on there. I had to call work and my boss told me just to go home and not worry about coming in. After we got back home I was watching the news and saw that her daycare was closed. I just didn't watch the 'Business closings'. We were just watching the school closings. So, after all of that Emily and I had a fun Snow Day together.

Here is a picute of the ice on our poor baby tree in our front yard...

... and on the grass.

I bundled Emily up to go outside for a few minutes. It was way too cold to stay out any longer.

Emily was really attached to her baby doll today. She was telling her baby to say 'cheese' while I was taking her picture.

She kept wrapping her baby up in this little blanket.

These next few pictures would not load up right. She really wanted to go down the slide.

She had ice all over her once she climbed up the side.

She climbed up the slide all by herself.

Singing in the Bath

This is from last week. I have been so busy at work this past week. We had our inventory at work yesterday and we've been preparing for it the last few days and even worked Sunday. So, I'm a little behind on the blogging thing. Everytime Emily is taking a bath she always sings to me. She was too intersted in the soap while she was singing her ABC's. She really does know the whole thing. Oh, Fridays are movie days at daycare and they watch a little bit of Barney. Every night she asks to watch Barney, but we don't have any Barney videos. Luckily we have Video on Demand with our cable service and it's free for all of the tv shows. So, she can watch a few episodes that way. Matt and I don't really care for Barney, but she sits through it quietly, so it's fine for now.

Heartbreaker

I found these cute new pj's for Valentine's Day yesterday at this place called The Market. It's right behind Quail Springs Mall. She was more interested in watching Cinderella than for me to take a picture.

Dress Up

This past weekend my parents came to stay with us and watch Emily while Matt and I both worked on Saturday. When I came home my mom was playing dress up with Emily. She is all about the Disney Princesses now and can name them all. We have Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and the Little Mermaid movies and she wants to watch them all the time. I forgot we had the princess clothes.

Here's Emily as Snow White.
I think this one is supposed to be a wedding dress. I'm not sure.

Happy New Year

Well, not much excitement here. We didn't do anything eventful last night. Emily went to bed around 9:00 last night and I think Matt fell asleep right after that. I stayed up long enough to see the ball drop in New York and was going to stay awake until it was actually midnight, but fell asleep just after 11. Today we spent all day taking down the Christmas decorations. It's kind of sad to see it all go, but then it's also nice to have a clean house that's not cluttered with Christmas stuff everywhere. Anyway, hope everyone had a good day.
