The kids and I went ice skating for their first time today with Olivia. Joey was on the ground more that on his feet but Elizabeth was proud to say that she didn’t fall even once!!
I was driving home through our neighborhood and noticed this 8′ snowman. Awesome!
Today we had a nice visit to Chuck-E-Cheese today thanks to Uncle Nix and Jenn!
When the four of us were leaving Menards today we all opened the doors of a silver Odyssey like ours. Unfortunately, it wasn’t our van. The guy inside the van was on his phone and understood that there are many vans that look like his. I am sure he was surprised when all of his doors opened unexpectedly and Joey was already in the van 
It was a pretty funny experience.
The news has been touting, “The biggest storm in 100 years”. Well, so far we have 8.5″ in our driveway.
The neighbors call our driveway the landing strip or helo pad. While I don’t kick myself often for deciding to have such a large driveway, this week may be one of those times that I do
Carolyn was on the computer and Joey wanted to play games. Carolyn asked him to wait a moment because she wanted to check the weather and Joey responds, “Mommy, it’s cold outside now stop”.
While I am not fond of his urgency with her it is funny.
I’m playing a bit of catchup for the last few weeks.

We enjoyed the band outside…
Since the release of Super Mario Brothers Wii, my routine has been a nightly gaming time with Joey playing SMB with him which has been fun but I will say that the fun of the game is wearing on me a little in the last week or so
Anyhow, today I was telling Joey that he was being a good boy and he responded, “I am a good boy so that I can play Mario”.
Oh boy, I have created a monster! If that’s what it takes to motivate him then it’s not so bad right??
