Miracles!

I awoke this morning on my own accord... nobody crying or calling my name. Miracle #1. I looked at the clock and it was 8:11 am. Miracle #2. Maddie's biological clock is set to 7 am or earlier. I put my contacts in and noticed something white moving out the window... SNOWFLAKES! Miracle #3! I woke Maddie up to show her the strange phenomenon and we took a little jaunt outside in our PJ's.

It landed on me Mom!
I got one!

Yes, that really is our street!

It hasn't stopped snowing all day and the world is looking pretty white! The best part about all this is today is my first day alone with 2 kids... it started out pretty magical. The only drawback was Maddie wanted to go on a walk or play at the park, and I realized I do take the Vegas weather for granted!

Snow?! how fun! You hae almost as much as we do. I'm loving it for a change. I hope we still have some when you are all here, It would be fun to drag the little ones around in the sled! Kisses!

You've got more snow than us! And yay for sleeping in. The no sleep thing is definitely the hardest part of a newborn I think because it affects everything else.

Snow in Vegas? To me, it always feels more like Christmas when it snows, I'm glad Maddie got to play in it, we got tons here and my girls LOVED it. I'm also glad you got to rest and wake up on your own, that almost never happens with a newborn and a toddler, at least for me it didn't. What a couple of little angels to give mommy a break for a day!
