Day 4 of ice/ snow...
We got a whole bunch of snow dumped on us last night and this morning. This snow is prettier and more fun to play in but at this point I have a bad attitude about the whole winter storm thing. I'm the grinch of the winter storm. I want it to be OVER. I want to leave my house. I do not care how pretty it is. I'm no longer enjoying sitting by the fire, I've had all the soup/ chilli I would like to have. I have drank all the tea, coffee, and hot chocolate I am interested in. Aiden and I have gone out to play in the snow as much as I care to. I am officially over it. I'd like to be able to go to the store, I want to see my Dr, I want to drive my car. I WANT to leave the house!!!! Or I'd at the very least appreciate it if the news people would stop talking and let it go back to normal programming. How many times and in different ways can they say "it's bad out there, don't go out"??? somehow they have to be on every single channel, interrupting every single show to show us "oh yes it's bad over here too" and "wait look over here, this is really bad!"
I told you I have a bad attitude....but I'm 37 weeks pregnant stuck in captivity with a 2 year old who's new favorite saying is "it's not fair!" and he will just start yelling at me that "it's not fair!" for absolutely no reason. I don't even think he knows what that phrase means and I don't know where he heard it but he yells it at me about a hundred times a day. He also tells me "I'm sooo sad" and again I just look at him like what are you talking about??? These phrases have to have come from some show he's watched or from school? I don't know, he doesn't even use them in context but it's a beating when the only person you see all day long keeps yelling at you that it's not fair and telling you they're so sad.
Yesterday I was convinced that I was losing my mind. I really wanted a cookie. We had no cookies. I opened up every cookbook I own and spread them out on the living room floor until I found a cookie recipe with ingredients I had in my house. So about 6 oclock last night we had 2 dozen made from scratch peanut butter, oatmeal raisin cookies. They were very good but I knew I had lost it. I lost it a little more when I saw someone on TV eating deviled eggs and I decided that sounded good so I made a dozen deviled eggs. I think it's safe to say the cabin fever or the pregnancy one have taken over my sanity!
More pics of the winter storm, ice, snow we're having...
I'll have ben take my 37 week picture when he gets home later (yes his is the one place of business open in this mess!) but I must warn you that I have pink eye in my right eye, plus 4 days of captivity...let's just say this mama is looking mighty frightful!!! If I was fit for the carnival last week, I'm ready for the shop of horrors this week!

Well, you KNOW I love these pictures!! Sooo cute. Check the Bryant Blog. Thanks for posting.
I was wondering if you went out and played.
It is finally warming up. Maybe all this ice and snow will be gone soon.
I was scheduled to work tonight, but they called and said don't bother. So I know how you feel! I just hope I get to work tomorrow. And I really hope that school doesn't keep getting canceled (I know - I'm shocked I said that too...) But Aiden looks adorable, like always!
