Counting the days until we can see our picnic table again!

Jeff and Walter built this truck together the other day and Walter said "Daddy is the best builder in the whole world." He says the cutest things sometimes. Jeff was also working on his train layout and had two model outhouses out and Walter said "Daddy why are those in houses there?"

We have received over two feet of snow this week! Ugh is it ever going to stop?!? I was looking at our picnic table, daydreaming about how Walter and I would play board games on it almost everyday during Rose E's naps this summer and realized that it just looks like a couple of big bumps in the snow, it is pretty much buried! Yesterday too I walked to the post office and chuckled to myself because banks against the sidewalk (the entire length of peoples yards) where higher than my elbow when I stood by them. I am so ready for spring this year (and for that plow to stop making all of that racket in front of our house at 5:00 a.m every morning).

Rose E is continuing to amaze us everyday. The other day she said a sentence to Jeff and I counted 8 words in it. She doesn't miss anything. It was cute because she saw an advertisement for a plate with the Last Supper on it and said "Jesus...the Bible." She has also been into counting our steps when she walks down them and can now count to 14.
