More Snow

I guess this could be the title of almost every post since we are living in Minnesota. It seems to snow just about every other day. It is pretty right now since I am home now and watching it come down from inside my warm house. However, when I was shopping in the white stuff it wasn't nearly as fun. :) Madison is out playing in the snow and Ben is shoveling. Fun, fun!

We are looking ahead to New Years now! We already took our tree down. I just got into a cleaning mood yesterday and had to get it down. It feels good to have my house back in a sense. We plan to lay low New Years Eve and do our usual dips and goodies. It has been somewhat tiring going nonstop over the Christmas holiday and I am ready to have just a peaceful night with the kids. I am sure the girls won't make it till midnight.

BTW, Madelyn slept from 10pm to 7am this morning. I couldn't believe that! I am amazed how she sleeps so well. She is still such a blessing! We are all enjoying her so much. Mercedes has been a wild wire over the holiday. She seems to act up even more while the kids are here or when we have company. She definitely continues to keep us on our toes. Madison is entering into a more "mature" phase and voicing her independence with it. Sometimes it seems all she wants to do is argue. So, we are learning to deal with her at a different level too. Harley has been coughing too much to cause any trouble. ha! Everyone's big concern over break was Ben and him going into the military. I think we all give up! If he wants to do it so be it! He won't listen to any logic it seems.

I need to get Mercedes up from her nap!

Have a great day!
