Weekend Visitors







Busy, busy weekend here at our house. Clare had visitors, Nana and Pop-pop! They came in to see their favorite granddaughter. She had lots of fun. Pop-pop brought her home a Flyer's onesie from the game and since I'm still not even sure how hockey works, it wasn't a debate like her other professional sports team outfits. Grandpa Kevin swears her 1st word will be Who-dey, however, I'm not so sure Chris is on board. Plus, with the Phillie's winning the World Series this year, the Red's are not really in the running. The picture above is the cute outfit Nana bought her when she was still in the hospital.
Clare had an exciting time with her newest sippy cup. It has a straw and she is a BIG FAN! Loved it. It is clearly much easier to drink from. Mommy gives her water, which is fun. She lets it drool out of her mouth for some unbeknownst reason to me. However, Daddy gives her yummy Gerber juice, which she sucks right down! I think she knows who the push over in this house is.
Chris is praying for a snow day tomorrow (ah, remember those days?). We are getting approx. 7 inches and I think neither of us are prepared for him to work tomorrow. He swears snow days should be "magic days" and not counted as weekend days. I think that is a great theory. On the weekends, Chris gets up with Clare while I sleep in. I think snow days are an extension of this rule. Thoughts on this? I would love to hear what others think snow days should be. Unless of course you agree with Chris. If so, please refrain from commenting. Hope you all had a great weekend. To my pregnant friends who fall in the puker category, I heard Old World Market has some really yummy ginger tea bags that work well.

  1. April...I totally agree with you!!! A snow day is definitely an extension of the weekend and Chris should get up with Clare...I would do my best to trick Keith into it as well, since we have the same arrangement!!!

  2. I vote Chris gets up. That's my final answer!

  3. I also agree. The boys don't seem to realize how big of a help it is for us to sleep in. Even if it is just an hour or so. Since Todd has to get up so early for work, getting up at 8:30 or 9 with the kids is like sleeping in for him. Oh did I mention I have perfect kids who don't get up before then? Sure, it's great now, but I'll be paying for it when school starts.
