Too much snow!

We have so much snow this is the only way Leah can really play in it!

It has been so cold here. Too cold to do much of anything outdoors. It's staring to get to me. Dave and Leah get to escape this weekend to Arizona and get some relief. Kate and I will still be cold.

More photos.....as if you needed more.

I had no idea how much Kate would enjoy this toy! I just brought it out by accident and she LOVES it! Leah loves Kate using it too.....she can't wait until she is big enough to really play and to Leah this is a big step in that direction!

Leah ADORES her if you couldn't tell

Dave got this GREAT microscope for Christmas from my parents. Dave and Leah are having a great time inspecting everything they can think of. Lab geeks.

I bought some markers for windows today and Leah went to town on the slider. This is how most of her drawings look as of late. I think she is trying to sole some type of equation?

Leah update

Leah has been so busy learning! Not only is she working so hard at reading, she has also been working on learning about the calendar, learning how to tell time, and she suddenly knows the Pledge of Allegiance!? They must say it in school? She just started spouting it off today out of nowhere! Here are a few videos of her super cuteness! I think the reading video really captures what goes in to learning to read at this stage....so much work! This was a new book to her and she is just starting to learn about two-vowel words. She is super excited to "play school" every day which involves reading one of her school books and whatever other school-type thing I come up with for that day. We generally do this during one of Kate's naps. I am throughly enjoying our time together and get such a kick out of watching her progress!
