2010

We hope you all had a safe and happy New Year! We had a very relaxing weekend. The snow was coming down pretty heavily on New Year's Eve morning but we decided to brave the weather and go for a swim at the gym.

Pearl had a good time blowing bubbles and splashing and then we stopped by the grocery store to pick out lobsters for Mommy and Daddy's dinner. Pearl liked touching their shells.

After her nap, we put on our snow gear and played in the backyard snow.

Pearl screamed like a wild woman when we first put on her snow pants but once we got outside she was happy to play. Of course, there was no way she was letting us put on her mittens (I don't think she likes having limited access to her precious thumb) so her hands got cold and we went inside after about 15 or 20 minutes.

On New Year's Day we got Pearl a little sled (as documented in a previous post) and went for a ride in the yard. Pearl actually wore her mittens for a little while but she soon was asking for "help" and flailing her arms in the air so we let her take them off again.

Since then we've just hung out at home for the long weekend. We've been very worried for the past week about our Poppy and Nana as they are both very ill right now so we hope you'll keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

Thanks and take care!

Love,
Jill
