I’m a little more than a little late with the birthday shirt pictures for Katie this year. Cold weather and a 6 year old made it a bigger challenge this year than in years past. Katie simply did not want to do these pictures. She thought they were DUMB and ANNOYING and the SHIRT DOESN’T FIT and besides, we’d taken these pictures before. What was the point?

Finally, we had a nice day, and she asked for candy seconds after I suggested we do the pictures and she refused again. I promised her the candy after we took the pictures. That was all it took. I didn’t have long, and I didn’t get many of the more portrait-y pictures I’d like to have, but what I do have is all Katie. And that girl has personality in spades.

Once we got back into the house, she wanted to see the pictures. Then she wanted to see the older pictures. She loved seeing how the shirt is getting shorter on her even though it still doesn’t fit. She wondered how old she would be when the shirt does fit, and if it will ever be too small. She wanted to see Maggie’s pictures to compare how they look different and the same. And more, and more and more. She never got the candy because she forgot all about it.

I can’t find the 4th year pictures at the moment.

March 2

The past 2 years, we’ve had snow on March 1. This year, it held off for another day, and apparently decided to make up for its tardiness with some extra oomph. Schools are closing early, there are fears there won’t be any tomorrow, and it seems to be sticking despite the rain that came earlier this morning. The roads seem to be slushing up niceley, too.

Really, though, I think that March in Atlanta should be snow free.

Happy Birthday Mom!

I hope you have a really wonderful birthday, mom. And I hope that more people tell you you look like you’re in your 40s. Or maybe late 30s. I love you! Thanks for being the best mom.

Keep enjoying the ride!

Big Puffy Flakes

After two days of rain, the weather has cooled down a little and it as started to snow. So far, nothing is sticking and it looks like the flakes are staying huge and fluffy. Although 2-4 inches are predicted, I’m not so sure that will happen.

Katie has been looking for her snow boots for the past hour. Of course, they were too small at Christmas, and we left them in CT. She doesn’t believe me.

And she’s off

I’ve added new pictures in the Gallery. These are from Stagg’s birthday through the fair we went to last night.

Not much to say, but I wanted to let you know there are some pictures of the girls riding Rebel up.

Stagg finally got a chance to fix the gallery, so there will be pictures again someday soon. At the moment, the pictures that used to be there are there again. Hopefully, that will be enough until I get some more cropped to put in their own album.

What can I say?
