Snow

Saturday morning we woke up to snow and by the end of the day we had a foot of snow on the ground! We have spent all weekend at home and let me tell you, it is cruel and unusual punishment to be stuck in the house for days on end with a three year old!!! Luckily we were able to get out of the house Saturday night. After all the snow stopped we went to the neighbors house and had a big taco feast with four other families in the neighborhood! The kids had a blast running around and playing and it was nice to have some other adults to hang out with.

We bundled up yesterday and headed out to play in the snow. Here is Diya relaxing in the stroller!! Luckily Adam and Laura had a snow suit that she could wear.
They also had a snow suit for Isha and we were so excited to go outside and play until we realized that we didn't have any boots for her. So, we made her some Virginia boots! That's right, those are plastic grocery bags wrapped around her feet to keep them from getting wet!! Pathetic, I know, but what are you going to do? Just wait it gets worse...
Yep that is Mackenzie and Rebekah being pulled around in a laundry basket!!! What can I say other than this is how we roll in Hartley Village!!! Isha had a blast playing in the snow and after we were done she had a big cup of hot chocolate complete with whip cream on top!!!
School is closed today and tomorrow so that means no preschool for Isha, Poor Me!!! We are supposed to be getting another storm this weekend, but I hope it we don't get much. I love the snow, but it is such a pain because everything shuts down here and it makes life kind of crazy!!

A Little Face Time For Diya

Diya is doing great!! It is hard to believe that in a few weeks she will be 6 months old!! Her half birthday is on Valentine's Day. We are going to have to have a little party for her. She still has her amazing blue eyes and I am hoping that they stay that way!!

She loves sitting up in the high chair and I am guess that she will love it even more in a few weeks when she is able to start eating some solid food!! She finally rolled over the other day, but hasn't done it since. She wasn't to happy once she was stuck on her tummy.
Just like her big sister, Diya is a happy baby. She loves to play with her feet and is usually content to lay on her play mat and play with her toys.
Diya moved into the nursery a few weeks ago and she is doing great sleeping in the crib. She has been sleeping through the night since we moved her into her own room. We are still working on getting into a regular nap time routine. It has been harder this time around since there are days that we have to run out and drop off or pick Isha up from preschool, but Diya is pretty good at going with the flow!!
She has a doctor appointment in a few weeks so we will keep you posted with how she is doing.
