4 days and counting





it has snowed for four days now, and we have about a foot of the stuff!. for a moment our city was crisp white and beautiful! now, it's brown ice and snow! justin worked from home yesterday. so, while lucy napped, i took noah and callie out to play in the snow. every one was out- old and young. it was so fun. the snowballs were flying!


if you were a fly on our wall today this is the song you'd hear on repeat...
please don't touch him
please don't touch her
i'm sorry (my response to tattling)


lucy is a human not a toy, put her down
no!
who raised you?
what would make you think that is a good idea?
please stop fighting
this is the last time i am going to tell you...
put that up higher where lucy can't reach it
gentle
stop running
no yelling, it is disrespectful to our neighbors
don't torture your sister
yes, i'm watching
take a chill pill
...over and over again!

calie is having a pool party in the tub. desperate times call for desperate measures!

oh... my in-laws left for the bahamas this morning! they won this trip by putting their names in a box at a restaurant. did you know that they really give anything away (well... besides trial memberships and starter kits)? they deserve it, but i'm still jealous!!

never fear, the forecast is calling for more snow this evening!! heaven help me!!

Wow - you would hear those same comments at my house! And my kids are older! I've decided that I want to live on Planet Callie - it sounds very exciting. What a hoot! I would be mortified to be snowed in for four days - somebody would be hurt by now - probably me!!

love,
stephanie

that song sounds eerily familiar to the one sung at my house too (snowed in or not).

Change the names and turn back the clock thirty years and I think I have heard this scenario several times myself. Can you imagine that!!! Wishing Callie a fun filled and wonderful birthday with a delicious ladybug cake. Hope she shares her cake with all of you! Love you bunches and bunches Miss Callie. Gamma

I just find it interesting that it shows up on your map that I read from Chile. I do. I must say, I'm addicted to Callie's quippiness! I laugh out loud. Thanks for sharing.
