Here’s the story of our yesterday…
Morgan and I took Adrian’s parents to the airport. They’ve been with us since we got back from California and I finally took a picture of all of them. I excused myself due to lack of shower. 
We had a nice and pretty relaxed week. They went to visit Adrian’s grandma in Idaho one day, and on Saturday we went to Sam’s Club and then dinner at Cheesecake Factory. But other than that, I didn’t leave the house all week (which is exactly what I wanted… I was exhausted after the weekend in CA!) and we mostly hung out and they cooked and cleaned for us. This is good because I still don’t feel any inspiration to cook anything.
Anyway, Morgan slept on the way to the airport and part of the way back, thank goodness. Poor kid really doesn’t like the car. Sometimes it’ll lull her to sleep, but if she wakes up she’s very unhappy. Well, the car or the car seat I don’t know, but anyway. So we only had a few minutes of sadness when I was already back close to home. I feel like she’s six weeks now and I feel up for going out more now, generally, but it’s just not worth it when she gets so upset. Plus it’s hard to feed her when we’re out, etc. So it’s simpler to just stay home it seems.
When we got back home, the snow really kicked up. It was good that we got home when we did.
Sleepy girl! I love it. I left her snuggled on the couch and told Toby to watch her so I could run outside to take some pictures…
That’s our driveway and street. I thought this was supposed to be March, and I thought we lived somewhere it doesn’t snow! HMM. Actually, I like snow because it’s so pretty, but winter does sort of start weighing on you around this time. The time change has infinitely improved my feelings about it all, though. That extra hour of light at the end of the day is really really refreshing.
I love how branches look with snow on them. These have evidence of spring’s impending approach, though, because you can see the buds. Come on, spring!
Later the sun came out and the snow started melting. I put Morgan in the wrap so we could go take more pictures outside, but then got distracted by her cuteness with the hat on. She, in turn, was adorably distracted by staring out the window at the light and snow.
She was a little less sure about being out in all that coldness, though. Hehe. She was still patient and let me take lots of pictures.
Ice and water droplet! I was exploring playing with my camera, and was pleased with myself.
This one is probably my favorite because of the contrast with the blue sky. There was just a little patch of it, so I had to line up the shot just right.
I was feeling all snazzy and pleased with myself for taking such fun pictures, so I came inside to upload them and was super excited to show Adrian. I brought myself back down by spilling nail polish remover, which I was using to clean the keyboard, over the top of the desk, which of course took off the top layer of seal and paint underneath. Yeah, I felt great, and it was hard to move these giant pieces to make sure I dried it all while Morgan was asleep in the wrap on my chest. But I did it, at least, though it was much too late to save much on the desk. So instead of getting to show off my pictures, I got to show Adrian all the damage I’d done to our lovely new desk when he got home.
Alas. I AM still pleased with the pictures.
