Perhaps I have become oblivious to the impending snow storms and have paid little attention to the weather reports...because I was surprised and delighted by today's storm. Ben and I had a lazy day planned and the snow was a great reason to stay in our jammies and have some good fun in the snow! Granted, our time in the snow was only about fifteen minutes but it was so beautiful out, we had to go! So far, I think this has been the prettiest snowfall this year. It was slow, peaceful and lasted all day long.
Charlotte has since expanded her vocabulary to include "jack" and "sit"...admittedly, "sit" comes out sounds a bit like...well...you can imagine. She is a big fan of "la la" and "da da" but we still have yet to get a solid "ma ma". When I ask her, she simply says "ma" and then goes into a long series of "la la la".
In pregnancy news, I passed the sixteen week mark and feel much livelier these days. I can just barely feel movements if I am laying very still and really focusing on feeling things. We will (hopefully) know March 3rd (also our wedding anniversary) if it is a boy or girl....all I can say is that I am having a VERY hard time picking out boy names! There are so many I love, but dislike the nick names that they can turn into. Help!
Seeing as I have an unhealthy love of throw pillows, I decided to gather some up and have Charlotte play in them! She loves anything fluffy she can bounce around in. Little did I know that she would have so much fun doing so! On these cold winter days, there is nothing more fun than a little baby photo shoot!

Good morning! Charlotte and I were enjoying a lazy Wednesday morning breakfast and Charlotte was having a ball. Enjoy her faces!
With a snowstorm pending, we have decided that we need to entertain ourselves for the duration of the weekend. Charlotte's new favorite thing (and Ben's) is "scaring" Charlotte and saying "I'm going to get you!" while she is playing. Charlotte hoots and laughs and enjoys the whole game. Not having started our day yet, I decided to capture some of these moments. She is walking everywhere and babbling all day long. She can say "la la la" when you ask her to sing and she bops along when you ask her to dance. She is always on her tippy toes...perhaps a future ballet dancer?
