4 days

School has been cancelled for tomorrow so that will make four snow/ice days in a row. Two of those without power. (That is assuming we do not loose power today or tomorrow.)

Puppy

Alea has a new favorite toy. She has adopted my favorite toy from childhood as her own. My "Puppy" was my best friend from the time I got him when I was 2 years old until...okay, he is still my BFF! :) Alea has taken him (now a her) on as her own. My only problem is that it doesn't bother her to throw him across the room, drop him from heights, and throw him in the washing machine. I try not to let her see that those actions hurt my heart. If you ever had a stuffed animal as a best friend you know how it is...he is "REAL" and those things hurt him. Well, at least they hurt me to watch. Puppy has a new lifestyle now as he often is found wearing barretts and necklaces. I know that Puppy is just happy to be loved by a sweet little girl again.

One Handsome Daddy

Alea wanted to help cut her Daddy's hair. She was very meticulous and did a good job for a four year old. She kept telling him that he was going to be "one handsome daddy". I told her that is a good way to get a tip.

Swan Lake

I am taking a day off today to be with my girl and to be away from my job... he he. I told Alea we were going to have a girl day and she wanted to know if she could invite her BFF Macy (next door neighbor) over to play. Macy came over about 10:15 and it is 1:40 now and they are still playing strong. They watched a princess movie that ended with the screen saver playing Swan Lake. They then decided to dress up like princesses and dance. Then they decided to build a stage. So far the stage is made out of pillows, laundry baskets, and couch cushions. I'll try to get a picture of this "ballet" in action. I love these girls. :)

Wrestle Mania

Davin and Alea had been wrestling all day. I decided to leave them to their wrestling and go run some errands. When I came home this is what I found...a sleeping, worn-out girl!

na na na na Batman!

This is how we found Alea last night (see pic below). She fell asleep watching a Batman cartoon. Davin said, "that's my girl!"
