After all of the unseasonably warm weather we've had recently, we were unprepared for old man winter…but he is certainly here! This weekend was frigid…on the news, they said it felt like 10 degrees outside and it was super windy. As a result, we spent most of the weekend in our PJs and didn't do too much with the kids. It was a far cry from last weekend when we were all at the beach without jackets! I would've much rather been down at the boardwalk than hunkered down in the house, but oh well...
It is always hard when the kids are cooped up for a few days, as we all kind of go stir crazy and get a little bored. Henry usually finds a way to amuse himself, and will gladly play by himself without a problem. But not Charlotte. Tonight as I was cooking dinner, after we had essentially been playing with her and entertaining her for 3 straight days, Charlotte said "daddy, you never play with me…you have to play with me. I can't play by myself!" (in an exasperated tone). Jon said, "but see, Charlotte, that's the thing…you CAN play by yourself". And she said, "no daddy, that's not my thing. That wasn't part of the deal when you had me". Hahaha…she makes me giggle.
Unfortunately, Charlotte has come down with a cough again (damn nursery school), and so I am guessing this is going to be a rough week with a lot more time spent in the house…wish us luck :)
