It's Still Winter

Last weekend we drove down to Clarksville to cash in Ryan's gift card to Bass Pro. Phoebe loves all the stuffed animals - those in the bins and those hanging from the walls!

Ryan had a good time shooting and shopping.

And they both had a good time looking at the fish.

Friday we got hit with a 5-inch snow storm so we figured it was time to try out Phoebe's snowsuit. She loved wearing it, but not outside...

This is what it looked like at about 4:00 in the afternoon and it didn't finish snowing till sometime after we went to sleep. It iced first so all the snow we got stuck to the trees. It's really quite gorgeous if you just keep your eyes upwards and don't look at the dirty snow on the streets!

Once we came back inside, she refused to take off her bibs. She has a stubborn streak in her and I have NO idea where it came from (certainly not her mother!)

And after showing a little interest a month ago about sitting on the potty, we got out a trainer toilet that goes on our toilet. She refuses to sit on it unless it's on the floor, she calls it her "chair" and walks around with it if she finds it (we've been trying to hide it...). It's quite gross really.

The last time Ryan shoveled Friday night, Phoebe wanted to be right along side him. Of course at this point, she's no longer wearing her snowsuit, but at least she's enjoying the snow!

We went out and got her a sled on Saturday and I'll try to have her go sledding in the daylight (we tried it out when we got home but it was dark) and post the pictures. She calls it her "boat" since we got it at Gander Mtn. and all Phoebe and Daddy look at together there are their boats/kayaks, etc.

And of course, we had to post our church outfits today. We thought it only appropriate to wear our Colts' blue since the boys are playing tonight in Miami. Here's to hoping it's a great game and Ryan doesn't scream at the t.v. too loudly and wake the little one up!

Today she wore pigtails for the first time. I didn't get a great picture of them, but it gives me hope that she'll start sitting still a bit longer as I attempt to play with her hair. She's not been real keen about having her picture taken recently. I think the only reason we got a smirk here is because she just helped YiaYia polish off a cupcake!

GO COLTS!!!
