We have snow!

Okay, not really. There is though, a bit of snow on the mountains (I thought they looked gorgeous this morning!). I think it is as close as we will get this year to snow. Feels pretty weird this year.
This week has been pretty quiet for us, which I needed. Emma is having some growing pains this week, fighting me about everything most of the time and loving Daddy and Gramma just the same. Sometimes it is hard being the mom! I think Emma and I are both having a hard time being so far away from so much family. I can't wait for my family to come visit after the holidays!

On Wednesday, we made gingerbread houses at Gramma's. Gramma helped Emma and I helped Ellie. Ellie wanted to eat ALL of the candy, forgetting she doesn't like the taste of candy (she mainly likes cookies and chocolate - just like her mama!!). Emma stuck with it for quite a while before giving up and watching her favorite movie, Rudolph. We had fun!

Today we had our much anticipated Dr. appointment with our new pediatrician. We loved it. The staff was nice, the nurse was nice, and the Dr. was great AND we didn't have to wait! I am amazed that that doesn't happen everywhere, but it doesn't out here! What a change from our last one. Ellie didn't even cry, so I knew she liked it so much better too. Both girls are in the 95% for height and pretty normal for weight. Big girls . . .
