Week 2 - still going strong!

Hello all! Some of you are receiving this for the first time because I was "reprimanded" for not including those of you who live close in the emails. I guess you do want to see the pictures and show them off at work :-)

This week was a thaw out. Amazingly all of the TV stations were talking about the risk of flooding....where did they think all of the snow was going to go??? We still haven't ventured far as it is wet everywhere and very soggy in what grass you can see.

Carson has been working on counting. It sounds something like this "one, two, free, five, eight, nine, ten, free." He was counting football players the other day, there were only "free," so he was able to do it flawlessly! He is so proud of himself after he counts that you just have to laugh. He also managed to get our attention by saying "Elmo tup, see it Daddy." That was his first "complete" sentence.

Delaney is very into drawing this week. It started on Valentine's Day when we made pictures for Matt and hung them up by the kitchen table. This week she was into drawing people. I will attach the drawing of Meemo to this email.....I was impressed. I taught kindergarten and I had children draw the same thing as a self portrait on the first day of school.

Matt and I are still boring. We did buy (and Matt hung) a cabinet above our washer and dryer. I didn't realize it could make me feel so organized, but it has. Now, if only I could magically make a pantry appear......

Love to you all,
Gretchen
