Cabin Fever

Hello from Antarctica...I mean Denver. It has been frigid here this week y'all. We have been dumped with snow and more snow, and the high today was 24! Brrrr! 






Now, just for the record, I LOVE living in Denver! I especially love the weather because in between these freezing cold days in the winter, we get these amazing 65 degree days BUT being cooped up in the house for days on end with two little ones can make ya go a little stir crazy! 

I have done some baking with all this time indoors which has been fun for me, but not so much for my waistline, whoops. I tried getting Lucy to bake with me, but she just has not been interested in it at all. She does, however, partake in all the eating of the baked goods ;) Poor girl just wants to go play in the snow but it is way, wayyyy too cold for that. 

We have watched entirely too much Mickey-- cue the Hot Dog song!  We have had Christmas music dance parties in the kitchen, colored our little hearts out, played with Play doh, played a game of chase Daisy around the house, & endless stickers that can now be found all over the house. I even managed to make vacuuming a fun activity for all of us!






But all that fun had to come to an end and we had to bust out of the four walls today!





I had a doctor's appointment to get to, so we bundled up and headed out. Since we were out, I decided to stop at Wal-Mart to get a couple of crafting items for stuff to do with Lucy...big mistake! Of course Wal-Mart was packed, so I had to park about a football field away and try to steer the stroller across the icy parking lot, ay-yi-yi.

So I did all that complaining about being stuck inside, then I go out, and all I wanted to do was run back home. 

Go figure.

On a totally unrelated note, Lucy made my stomach hurt from laughing so much tonight. She finally learned daddy's real name and I was cracking up over it. Her and I were reading books before bedtime and Ben was leaving to run to the store for more diapers. I called his name so I could tell him one more thing about the diapers to get. After he left the room again, she yelled "Ben!" And she kept yelling it and yelling it, and I lost it! At one point, she looked at me and asked, "where Ben go?" Ahhhh kids are too funny!

Happy almost Friday! ;)
