snowy, busy day

We started the day with lots of snow and of course, a SNOW DAY! Stephan’s preschool was canceled. I already didn’t have work as we are on fall break. Andy stayed home instead of trekking to Boulder.

While bummed that I was not able to spend time with my friend Natalie this morning or April this evening, and Stephan missed his show’n'tell that we’d prepped for last night, we did end up having a pretty good day.

This afternoon we all bundled up and braved the nasty drive to McDonald’s for lunch. The main roads were not great, but not horrid either. We were pretty happy since our big 20wk ultrasound was this afternoon and we knew we’d not only get there, but also not have to leave super early.

Here are our pics of baby Stone #2. The first is my favorite, followed by the others she printed for us.

After we were done, we went upstairs to get flu shots. I’m still debating on the H1N1 shot, but it’s not out yet anyway so we just got the seasonal shot. Stephan gets the mist up his nose and did AWESOME! He didn’t even flinch. I was so impressed with him, such a big boy!

I got a call from my friend cancelling our girls night dinner plans, so we all headed over to Noodles and snagged some dinner. We’d gotten a “brave the weather and get a free bowl” coupon and decided to take them up on that. I got a couple pics of Stephan eating and then one of the outdoor patio furniture covered in snow.

After dinner we came home and I went out back to snap a few pictures. We live on top of a wonderful sledding hill that can be seriously obnoxious this time of year. They are loud, of course only when we are trying to get Stephan to take a nap, and leave trash behind. One time last year, they made our sidewalk into a sheet of ice to have a longer ramp to get going down the hill. It’s truly the thing I hate the most about the snow. Especially when there are little girls that like to screech and scream. I’m done venting, now on to the pictures.
