Good morning! I finally had a chance to post!

LJ's new trick when he's in charge of cooking is strapping wiggly Patrick on his back. It keeps little hands out of mischief and allows something to actually get done! I think I might start doing this too . . . plus Patrick loves it!

This is a typical snack time at our house- Princess Bela decked out in Snow White fashion, and big P sippin back on his favorite straw.

Newest confession- I love to knit! This is a little sweater shirt I was trying to get done for Bela's Birthday and didn't quite make it. I will have to post the finished product soon!

Bela still loves to be in the thick of it while we're cooking. LJ was letting me knit and with the help of both kidlets was cooking breakfast for the Birthday girl.

She was so spoiled! Here's some of her gifts--it was so good to have Grandma and Grandpa Burrows around too!

Movies at our house are turning into pretty interesting activities. When we watch Pete's Dragon, Bela insists on eating an apple--when we watch Toy Story, she just has to wear a cowboy hat--and if we watch Sleeping Beauty, she has to have a dress-up on!

Last but not least . . . . Snow for my Birthday! So I know that snow is invconvenient sometimes but there is still something fun about waking up on your birthday to fresh white stuff and hot chocolate! Plus it was the first chance Bela has had to try out her new shovel. Daddy and her went out to help our neighbor and his son first thing this morning. She was a pro!
