Back to the TUNDRA!

My Dive ready to go with her Purse, Keys, and Shades!



We have been home in Minnesota for a week now and we are most definitely feeling the effects of winter here! This week we have felt temps of -30 something due to wind chill factors. Its really fun when you look online at the weather for the day and the high is -4 and the low is -17 but in fact the high for the day turns out to only be -22 and that's without the wind chill. But, we don't let the cold get us down or at least keep us in! CC and I were back to our activities that included a trip to the Children's museum to play in the water world and most of all the bubble tub! We took two trips to Walmart ( a trip in itself due to the fact that we live in the world of Target so Walmart is at least a 15 to 20 min drive I still make it though I like their LOW prices) and various other stores to re-stock our cupboards and fridge, three trips to three different malls to play (including the Mall of America to enjoy the aquarium and to watch the junior cheer leading competition)We met up with our friends at one of the said malls to play at the play place. We played in the snow for the first time in CC's short life a.k.a. touched the snow with four fingers.
Cecily is a summer girl like her Mom she throws tantrums like these every time she has to get bundled which is every time we go anywhere! We tried blowing bubbles outside because supposedly they freeze and its super cool but, on the day we did it, it apparently wasn't cold enough because our bubbles did not freeze just popped like usual! We will try again!!

Great Grammi and Gramps got CC a potty chair for Christmas so we have been practicing! Not trying hard I mean the girl is only 17 months but just getting used to the idea! We have had ONE successful go on the potty it was #2 to be exact if you catch my drift!



Caught red handed eating dad's sugar cereal. This girl knows where the goods are and unfortunately knows how to open the bag!
