Dreaming of a White Christmas



Here in Maine we are experiencing our third winter storm of the season. With 10-18" expected we thought Anna should see what snow really is. We got all of our gear on for a five minute trip outside. When we laid Anna in the snow she knew right how to make her first snow angel!

December Update


Anna in our bed bundled up.




The last week has been a busy one! We awoke last Friday to an ice storm and no power. With bleak predictions of getting power back, Anna and I headed to Connecticut for a surprise visit with the grandparents. We were 20 minutes away from Stratford when Marty called to say power was back. We were very lucky! Friends lost power for five days! You have to love underground utilities.


Anna is now six months old. Time is flying by! She is sitting and reaching for everything. This week Anna began eating sweet potatoes and loves them! She also is a big fan of Cheerios!

Thanksgiving


We spent Anna's first Thanksgiving in CT. We got to visit lots of family and Anna loved being the center of attention. Wanting to be heard over the crowds, Anna has learned to yell when she wants something. Although funny to everyone else, Marty and I don't agree.
