Hello Snow.

We had our first snow around here last night and woke up to a white canvas all around us. I am sure that all this snow will be gone as quickly as it came as the temperature has not been below zero during the day, however we enjoyed a few minutes of the calmness that a fresh snow brings.

Our garage will be built shortly so the boys spend the snowy morning getting the footings ready to go. I am so glad that we will have a winter free of scraping off windshields and brushing off snow.


This past week, we also had a few more firsts in our Clarence Road home. Our little man received his first piece of mail. I realize that I am "outing" his name by posting this picture, however I would like to point out that his Grandma already had in one of her previous posts so I didn't do it first!


We also had a visit from some friends who have a little boy who is 2 months older than ours. Right now, they seem to be at such different stages, however I'm sure in a year or so, you will hardly be able to notice the difference and they will be great friends.


We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the next Clarence Road boy, soon to be born to our wonderful next door neighbors. Due date is in a few short weeks!

Our little man is now 8 weeks old and will be a full 2 months in only 2 days. In the few weeks since his arrival he has experienced his first Thanksgiving, will have his first Halloween tomorrow and Christmas is not far away. There is definitely a lot to celebrate. In our house we are celebrating some pretty small things these days, like how our little man gets a little happier every day, and rewards us with lots of smiles and cooes - something this Mama needs to make the not so happy moments seem easier.

  1. Perhaps you should consider dressing him in something other than stripes, and then he would be happier. Maybe he feels a bit like an inmate! (Joking, of course - thanks for letting us have him for a bit last night).

  2. I have to note that you also outed his address...bold move there, mama! All of his adoring fans are going to stop by now!
