It Wasn't So Bad



At home with Mama

So last week, we got about ten inches of snow. It was insane. It started Wednesday evening and ended on Sunday. At first I thought I was going to need a brown paper bag to breathe in, because the thought of being snowed in with my three-year-old and my newborn baby was going to be too much for ME (I am emphasizing the word me). I mean, I just went back to work after a long maternity leave, and I was excited to get back into the swing of things. Then here comes the snow...grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeaaaaattttt.

Well, it came down alright, and I was stuck in the house with my kids. But, it wasn't so bad. I made cookies with Julia, I got to spend more time with Jesse and catch up on the Real Housewives marathons. :  ) Joey ended up taking Julia to the farm for a couple of days in a row, and they got to go sledding. But, what I'm trying to say is that I enjoyed my time, and it wasn't so bad seeing the excitement in Julia's face as she tasted the yummy cookies, and the pure joy of watching a Jesse's tummy go up and down as he sleeps. Or getting schooled by a three-year-old at a game of 'Go Fish.' I don't know what I was thinking when I thought that I wasn't going to be able to handle being stuck inside. Memories were made and I hate to think that I would have missed out on it.



Julia loving the fact that she's snowed in at home.
