Snowmageddon Take Two

Even stay at home moms and toddlers have "snow days". Mainly for the fact that this lady is very nervous driving in the snow and even with our new Subaru is scared of the fools that are out there in their little 4-door sedans boppin' around. Clearly I'm annoyed after one outing in the snow around our hills.
So, Lilah and I have hunkered down and honestly stayed pretty busy this week (we were home Monday, out for awhile to the gym and Trader Joes Tuesday, and then home Wednesday and today, Thursday).
She has played a lot and watched a lot of Yo Gabba Gabba, Cinderella, Barney (ugh), and Finding Nemo. We've pretended to eat play dough, colored, and painted. Today I found a blog with an idea to make a crown and wand out of cardboard and foil. Lilah got to decorate it a little, which took up some of our morning. We also made banana chocolate chip muffins this morning - bonus for both of us. I've done a little (just a little) online shopping, and now catching up on this. ;)
I love, love my ipad. I have worked out at home 3 days this week using this great FREE app - Nike Training Club, and our handy dandy, old treadmill. Awesome. Today I also attempted to try some fun hairstyle tutorials I found on a blog....mostly unsuccessfully, but hey, I had time to do it! Yay!
As I type it continues to snow. I think we're at 8 (or more!) inches. It actually is so beautiful outside. I have to walk outside sometimes just to listen to the silence and snow falling. Since so many are staying in, it's so quiet and peaceful, which makes it that much more serene.
Here are some pictures from the last few days - after Lilah's nap I'll have her try on her finished crown and wand.
Alright, another thing checked off the snow day "to do" list. Next - buy my Insanity workout dvds to help me get my post-baby body back! ;)





Lilah's drawing of her mama....funny, but actually wonderful for a 2 1/2 year old!
