Unlucky me.

Okay, maybe not that unlucky.  But after a wonderful four day weekend with everyone at home, I was looking forward to getting back to normal today.  Those errands I have put off since last Thursday were on my schedule to tackle today, but alas that won't be happening.  Although the snowfall here has been light, the ice has been more of a problem since the city does not have much salt, so schools were cancelled today.  I'm not sure if Mike's office is closed today, but it really does not matter since he's on call and will be stuck at the hospital anyway.  So the three kids and I will be hanging out at home today!

We had a nice day at home yesterday.  Our neighbor, Sierra had her 4 year old birthday party yesterday, so for an hour, we all got out of the house.  It was a good thing the party was just after lunch because my girls definitely had enough sugar to last for a while.  And of course, my SLOW eater Claire was the last one at the table finishing all her ice cream, cupcake, and cake. . .

Grace enjoyed the treats as well and found a new way to wear birthday hats. . .

Tyler slept for most of the party, but woke up in time for me to try to get a picture of him and Sierra's brother, Jacob.  Jacob is just over 6 weeks older than Tyler.  I did not have much luck getting a good picture of both of them.   Usually one of them would be happy while the other fussed. . .

Too bad Tyler's good buddy Christopher was not able to be at the party.  Christopher is just over 4 weeks older than Tyler.   Yep, that's right.  Three neighbors had three boys just 6 weeks apart. Trouble ahead!

It's time to figure out what we're going to do today!  Considering temperatures are supposed to be in the 40s and 50s the rest of the week, I'm fairly confident we'll be back to school tomorrow.  Hurray!
