Musical Maddie

Here's a little video showing of Maddie's musical talents:

Smart Cookie

When I dropped Madison off this morning, her teacher pulled me aside and told me, "I'm very impressed with your daughter. The other day she was playing with the number and letter blocks and she knew every single one of them." I tried to act surprised by this, but she's been able to do this for months. Now, she can write some of her letters, like "A", "M", "N", and "O". She knows that "M" is the first letter of her name.

Madison has become quite the artist. She LOVES to draw. Yesterday, she discovered that she can draw a face and the letter "A".

"Daddy"

First Snowman

Brrrrrrrr!!!!!!!

I had a feeling that we were going to have a colder than average winter, but this is getting ridiculous (and dangerous). Tomorrow we're supposed to get another 3-5 inches of snow (on top of the 6 or so inches already on the ground). Thursday we will be getting 40 mph wind gusts out of the north to create near blizzard like conditions & negative double digit wind chills. Then on Friday, one forcast is saying we will have a HIGH of -3. I am very grateful that we decided to get our new heater installed this year.

I am really missing Florida right now. I know it's chilly there, too, but it's a lot warmer than here! Maybe I should use my birthday money to buy a couple plane tickets to Orlando.
