Mommy and Noah played in the snow after school. We had a fun snowball fight, and Noah made a snow angel. We couldn’t convince Logan to come out and play with us. “I will be too cold.” At 4:10, it is still snowing, and we have enough snow in our yard to make 5 more snowmen! The only thing better would be to have Matt here with us.
It’s really starting to accumulate in the yard. And as I type this, it is still snowing outside. Hopefully I will be able to get some pics of Noah and Logan playing this afternoon when they get home from school.
Driving back to Grandma and Papa’s house after picking the boys up from Uncle Jimmy’s house……
While in Houston, we wanted to go to the zoo but the weather wouldn’t cooperate. So instead, we met Aunt Tracye and Lauren at the Ruckus Room to jump around. Tracye has some pictures posted on her blog, too, so click here to check it out! Thanks for meeting us T, we had a blast, and loved getting to see you! Lunch afterwards was yummy too!
I can’t believe my precious little angel is 15 months already!
She is growing up way too fast for me. And we are quickly leaving baby stage, as she is walking all over the place. Last week she even started standing up in the middle of the room. Tonight she blew kisses to daddy before heading upstairs to bed. Here are some other things about Mattie at 15 months:
She loves to tackle her brothers.
She loves the stairs. As soon as you take the gate down, she makes a beeline for them.
She learned to climb on the coffee table, all by herself. (Notice she has my wallet. That’s a bad sign.)
She loves to look at books. This one is her recent favorite. It has a “laugh” button. She giggles after the kids do.
She’s learning to go down the slide. Now we just need some warmer days to get out and play in the backyard.
She’s getting to eat like a big kid! We went on a lunch date with Logan and she got her first taste of ketchup, and learned to dip.
Every day she learns something new. Every day she makes me laugh (and boy do I need that!). Whether she’s bobbing up and down when dancing to Wiggle music, clapping for herself because she “did it,” or walking around in Logan’s shoes, she never ceases to amaze me. I look forward to each day, wondering what she will learn next. I love my little girl.
We go see Dr. Addy on Tuesday. I’ll be back then with her stats!
The "Tot Spot" at the Houston Children's Museum is designed for toddler discovery. 
Lots of places to climb.
The ball pit:
Aside from carrying the ball around with her wherever she went, I think the tunnel was her favorite thing!
We love this place, and I hope we can go back soon!
Then we headed over to the Children's Museum for an afternoon of fun. I only ended up with pictures of Mattie. Eric took hold of Noah and Logan, and off they went. Chey had her camera, of course, and has posted some pictures here. After the museum, it was back to Eric's for presents and a sleepover for the boys! Logan was so excited to be included for his first sleepover, and Noah's third. Aunt Chey, always so creative, had great party favors. Check out the grills on these gangstas!
Little E and Young NC!
Too funny!
It's an ongoing process, but little by little, I'll get there. And I couldn't do it without the help of Grandma and Papa, and their willingness to spoil me and my kids! 
I'm addicted to the Cameron storage system from Pottery Barn Kids. It would be ALL over my house if I could afford it. But I can't. So instead, I started small. Thanks Grandma and Papa for pooling some of your Christmas money with me. Mattie and I love it!
