Since snow wouldn't come to us, we went to the snow. There was a lot of snow, 12+ inches when we got there, and more came Saturday. Lauren got to sled with her friends and play in the cold, and then she played some more. Lauren was very excited. Jack didn't seem to care.
Luckily, the roads were clear so travel was easy. And may I say, WAY TO GO OHIO! Some of the clearest roads I have ever seen in that kind of snow. Good job!
Now, on to spring!!!

The snow that wasn't...

Poor Lauren. All she has wanted since Dec. 21, is snow. I had a terrible time convincing her it was Christmas without snow. Now, she is seeing snow on TV and wants to know why we have barely a dusting. John also wants LOTS of snow. Both of them are very upset about this winter. Sad...

Colts!!!!

I know I haven't posted in a while, so here's the low down: Lauren is growing like a weed, Jack is doing the same and smiling a lot, the Colts are off to the Super Bowl (Jack likes football already!), school conferences are coming up this week for Lauren and I am sure they will say she's the smartest in her class ;). It is very cold and Lauren is hoping beyond hope, that it will snow soon. Enough snow for a snowman please.
More later...

I have gone to the dark side...just kidding.

Update:

Lauren loves Jack SO much! Christmas was fantastic, everyone got everything. Lauren loves Jack SO much, in case I failed to mention it. The tree is down, put away and the baby stuff is beginning to overtake the house. How's Lauren? She is in love with Jack. New Year's Eve was a long day in the car to help family and home again, late at night but then up every 2 hours to feed Jack.
Today, family day at our house.
Tomorrow is mother's birthhday. Happy 57th!!!
Wednesday, life returns to normal with John going back to work.
Love this time of year!!
Hate when it ends...

Best gift

Lauren's in love!!

Jack's here.

He's perfect.

We are a family of four.

Awesome!

The day before

Tomorrow is the long awaited arrival of Jack. I think we have thought of everything, but if not, we won't know until it's too late. Lauren is taken care of, we have to be at the hospital at the specified time, our parents know when to be where, I have my coach, I have Jack, I have our bags packed, I think we are as ready as we can be.

I will post a picture to my www.flickr.com account as soon as I can.

Off we go!
