Snow days

We had a very snowy weekend in Ohio! We got a lot of snow & it was also very windy so it was really hard to tell how much snow we actually received. There were places in the yard with over a foot of snow and other spots in the yard with an inch.

Snow drift

Colin loves the snow. He just stands at the window and watches it and points. He doesn't mind the cold and just laughs the colder it gets. He has been laughing a lot!

Loving being outside

Kory had the same idea 30 years ago like father like son!

Saturday snow

Sunday it was close to whiteout conditions at times during the day.

It was extra windy Sunday night and it created these amazing "snow rollers" all over the yard. They are amazing and apparently very rare.

Schools have been closed all week so we have enjoyed being inside by the fire. Too cold to play outside!

Snowman week

Colin is doing great and has recovered from his surgery! We are so thankful for a quick recovery and for his hearing. He is starting to vocalized more every day and is responding to our voice! He is growing up so fast and I think he has even grown since Christmas.

Kaitlin had snowman week at school and it snowed all week

Wednesday of snowman week

Colin has a huge fan club at his school. I walked him in on Wednesday and all these little girls ran up and gave him a huge hug. Such a ladies man.

Love seeing Colin so happy

It has been so cold and has snowed every other day. I have lost track of all the snow and cold. The weather guy said he had good news for February more snow and less cold! This is not good news!! We will not complain when it is hot this summer!

Look at these huge snow flakes!

Colin's ears

Colin has been having a tough fall. He had 6 ear infections since Thanksgiving! Even on antibiotics he could not get rid of them and he has been in constant pain. We saw an ENT and got surgery scheduled.

Last Monday was the big day for getting tubes and removing adenoids. It snowed Sunday night and was below zero for most of the day so I was thankful Kory could be with us! We were scheduled for 1st surgery of the day.

It was suppose to snow 18 inches so Didi came up early so he would miss the snow. He stayed with Kaitkin while we were at the hospital. It was so nice for her to be at home and having fun with Didi!
