for Mia and Dad. For Mia's birthday Daddy gave Mia a card with a special coupon that he would take her on a dinner date then out for ice cream. So today she decided to redeem the coupon. She was SO excited all day. She even took a shower and put a new dress on before her date. As soon as Dad came home, they went out to Mia's choice, Grady's Grille (she even saw her classmate Grady at his restaurant). Then they went out for ice cream at Coldstone. Dad put her to bed to end their date together. Annie and I stayed in and had our own little time together. She talked my ear off and I loved every minute of it.

Props go out to any parent that has more than 3 kids! I am babysitting another baby for the next few weeks to help a friend of a friend out and boy, having 4 kids in the house is nuts! The girls are all super good, the baby, who is a boy, is a little colicky so it's been interesting. He's only with us a few hours in the afternoon and I think we are all adjusting



And finally we had a decent snowfall! Almost 10 inches fell yesterday. Mia's school was canceled. I shoveled throughout the day but still when Corey got home he had to shovel it all over again. The girls had fun playing outside with their friends next door and then in our yard. We came in for some hot cocoa before dinner :)
