Upcoming Changes!

I can't believe Connor is going to turn 2 next month! He is getting a "big boy" race car bed for his birthday. We're switching his room to my office. Cocoa the bunny will move downstairs and my stuff will be cleaned out and relocated. It will give him more room and another place for his many toys. Right now, most of them are stored behind the couch. He's good about picking them up before nap and bedtime, but they need their own place!

I have been doing Muffin Tin Monday, but my pics have been awful :)

Muffin Tin Monday



I can't get it to rotate. I don't know why this happens sometimes. It's not saved this way.

Anyways, Happy Valentine's Day!

Connor had chicken, strawberry Jell-o, cherry cobbler yogurt, mozzarella cheese, and peanut butter toast hearts.

Snowpocalypse? Not so much.

Some of you might have heard... Chicago and the surrounding areas had a blizzard on February 1st and 2nd. Some areas got over 20 inches and 4 ft drifts. Northwest IN was supposed to get lake effect snow, which means we get dumped on. Yeah... not so much. At least not at my house. We didn't get the viscious wind that other areas did. We have 8 inches in the lowest part, 13-16 in the highest. Most of the bottom rail of my horse fence is under snow. It is deep on the way to the barn, which makes it difficult to drag a sled with water buckets on it. But it's a great way to raise your heart rate! It was bitterly cold overnight. My weather station said -5 this morning when I went to feed the horses. I've been rotating buckets of warmed water for them to drink. Here are some pics from before we got the last 3 inches.

Muffin Tin and Wordless Wednesday

Connor and I are battling colds this week.

Monday's Muffin Tin:



Theme was "Big and Little, Short and Tall". We just did Big and Little circles. Popcorn chicken, bagel thin, bananas and grapes. Not a tin, this cute divided plate came from Target's Dollar Spot.

Wordless Wednesday:





This cutie showed up in our backyard earlier this week. She's been hanging around, eating acorns. Yes, she has three legs. No, I don't know what happened. We're calling her "Daisy" :)
