Lunch at home

This is what an almost-2-year-old chooses to eat for lunch when she's home sick. She caught Anna's nasty cold and got sent home from day care yesterday. Joe's got it now and I feel it coming on. *sigh*

Addicted to NPR

Our poor kids know nothing about music, but they're up on current events. Our radio is almost always tuned to WXXI, our local NPR station.

*cough cough*

Anna was supposed to come with me to an ice cream social today for families with kids with congenital heart defects, but she got a fever and a cough.

Hoarders

Until we finish painting the art room, we had to put all my crap in the den. It made me feel like we were on that TV show hoarders.

Po-nay

Parker really needs a haircut, but until then, we've been using ponytails to keep the hair out of her eyes. She calls them "po-nays." Cute!

Painting

I'm painting my art room. I'm thinking greens and purples.

Snow day

We are getting more snow/ice/freezing rain today. I'm home bc I didn't want to risk driving in the ice. Yuck. I'm looking forward to a relaxing day. Thank you snow.

How I feel

This is exactly how I felt tonight before I went to bed -- utterly exhausted.
