It's been cold!

Just a warning this will be a long picture post of random events in our house over the past two weeks...

It was cold this past week, not just cold, freezing. My outdoor thermometer said "LO" for over 2 days because it was soo cold. We had to get creative not to be overcome by the closing in 4 walls as we (I mean the kids) were stuck in for a bit. Lets just say I was very Thankful to start a new Bible study on Thursday night. Which I am very excited about by the way, not only to grow in Christ, but with the other wonderful girls in it.

Anyways, I ended up posting the pictures in a very odd order so I will just ramble...
Here's an addition to "This is what happens", no other description needed.

We did a lot of baking, this day was muffins for our Tuesday morning MOPS meeting. We made sour cream blueberry ones and luckily they tasted better than they looked.

PLEEEAAAASSSEEE just pick me up Mom!!! He is still very attached to me, all the time.

Cute pic, too bad I don't let them sit on the hearth. I believe Aiden said "UH OH" right before he backed in and sat down. That's what he says right before he does anything he is not supposed to do. His other favorite word is "this", he will point all over the room at whatever he wants and just say "this this this." Then this morning Alyssa was watching TV and Aiden got the remote and turned the channel. Once the screen went fuzzy he held up the remote and said "This This!"

Wait for me!

Out in the snow the day before the temperature dropped to -8, it did get down to -18 though :(

Alyssa is still getting up in the 5am hour, so now she has started asking me if she can go downstairs. This particular day I found her at the island listening to her MP3 player. She said she was "just waiting for me to make breakfast."

Look at how old he is looking, it is so sad!

And this afternoon we were making treats for our play date tomorrow and she was literally licking the marshmallow fluff jar clean. I didn't take a picture of her licking it off the island!
So that's what we have been up to, Stay Warm!
