I need to add some pictures for the grandparents. I haven’t been taking as many pictures as I probably should these past few weeks. I think I am just cold all the time, so my brain isn’t quite working right. I don’t see how people live up north. I am near miserable just walking into the garage for two seconds to put our recyclables in their bucket. OK, so that is an exaggeration, but I am REALLY cold when I walk out there. And it stays pretty cold in our house. The stairwell is the warmest place in the house, but it is not very comfortable to hang out on the stairs all day…and can be downright dangerous with Mack around. So we just stay cold. ( I can hear my dad say, “You think it’s cold in here? Just step outside and you’ll know cold.”) Ha.

So, in keeping with the “freezing cold” conversation, here is what the kids have been doing a lot of…not really laying around, but just being in the house. Mack loves the remote and does his best to hang on to it once he gets it in his hands. That is, unless Josh is around. He gladly takes it straight to him. What is that about??? He will even take it out of my hand (the TWO times I have ever held it) to give it to Josh. How do they already know that men hog the remote? Craziest thing I’ve ever seen.

We went to my room mate in college, Paige’s, little girl’s birthday party. It was in Dallas, GA. The kids had fun feeding the geese. Molly made her way to the cake that was intended for Ila Belle to dig into…but as soon as Molly saw another girl stick her fingers into the cake, she was quick to join in on the fun.
