White Christmas

So, we're definitely guaranteed a white Christmas this year. We've got quite a winter storm going on outside the doors of my warm, cozy house. We're expecting about a foot of snow by this afternoon in my area. Nathan had to go into work. Had there been more snow early this morning he would have worked from home. But as it is, I will be worrying this afternoon when he makes the treacherous drive home. But all the kids are enjoying an early start to their Christmas vacation. We're also expecting more snow this weekend, and again on Christmas eve. I'm all for a white Christmas, but this is a little much.

All else is well here. We're busy getting ready for the holidays next week...cleaning, wrapping, cooking, taking care of last minute things. But it's fun. Katie saw the pediatrician yesterday, and it was kinda fun to have him so pleased with her progress and development after all we've been through. However, we are finding ourselves back to having weight checks. She's only 15 pounds 0 ounces at 9 months old. SO with only a 2 ounce weight gain over the last 2 months, we're needing to be a bit more vigilant with that again. It's hard as she's so active now, and much prefers to play over eating. We're trying to supplement with some formula, although she's a bit of a breastmilk snob. But we'll manage to pack on some more pounds somehow:)

Anyway, I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas! And do you all realize it's only 2 months until we all meet again? Wow, that's coming fast!
