Still Snowed In

Today I am 16 weeks 4 days...this is significant to me in this pregnancy and Dalton's because it was the halfway mark for my pregnancy with Easton. I feel fairly confident I'll make it further than that again. In fact, if I have my way, this will be the longest of all my pregnancies. Dalton's ended at 38 weeks and 6 days. I'm so strange I've got my fingers crossed to go to about 39 1/2 weeks this time. Who wants longer pregnancies, besides me and other mom's of preemies? :)

Anyway...sounds like Jason is coming home today. At first the airlines told them they wouldn't be able to get a flight until Sunday or Monday!!! But then they got creative and they left at 7 something this a.m. (meaning they woke up at 4:45!) to fly to San Fran first for a few hours. It looks like there's still a significant amount of delays and cancelled flights out at the airport so I'm nervous. And J's phone died so if he wants me to come pick him up at the bus stop (and I know he does) I'm not exactly sure when to meet him there. Eek!

I'm just hoping he'll be home for dinner. I've got his favorite chicken enchiladas ready to go when he gets here. And the house is all clean but who knows how long I can keep it that way? Actually it's easier to keep things clean with Jason gone.

So, for the second half of our snow day, we did make our Krispie treats. Easton was itching to get started and I told him, "Hold on, I have to finish this (something with Dalton) and then go potty and then we'll make 'em." A second later he informs me, "I got everything ready for you" and I see he's put the toilet lid up and the sink is already running with warm water for me to wash up afterwards. Cutie pie.

Finally!




We didn't eat them right away. We played in Easton's room for a long time then came back down to look out at the snow:


Then we had some dinner followed by our Rice Krispie treats:




Easton got to sleep in my bed again. Except this time he woke up coughing and coughing sometime before 6:00 a.m. Which means I was up too. He laid there fairly quietly but never did go back to sleep so that made me grumpy. And with his mood today it's fairly evident that he didn't get enough sleep either. Grrrr.

But he did figure out a new way to climb in the house today:


I know I see him do stuff like that all the time, but still it amazes me how strong my little guy is.

Seriously.
