i need a vacation...

so this morning we woke up and i went to check the weather. yeah, thats right the temperature was -18 and then it said it felt like -34. yes, i am not kidding it is that cold. last night we got home about 10 pm and it was so cold that it hurt to breathe. the cold is bad, but it honestly has snowed like 10 inches every week since thanksgiving, no one really plows the roads, so needless to say i am sick of the weather. poor kyle, it is even too cold for him to play in the snow for more than like 2 minutes because his little fingers will freeze. i keep telling matt that if we are going to live here for the rest of his career we are going to need a time-share or something to break up the winters, i think Cabo San Lucus sounds good, or Puerta Vallarta would be nice too, ok honestly any where with no snow and i could wear 1 layer of clothing would be an upgrade. we'll see if that ever happens, but i have to go eat breakfast now!

sometimes my son is just too cute!


i am not sure how much ya'll know this, but kyle LOVES matt. i know this is sorta obvious, but everyday matt is on his way home kyle just waits by the door saying "daddy home?" then when matt gets home kyle helps him take off his boots and kisses his dad. kyle has to put on his boots too to be big like dad. it is the cutest thing to see how much kyle adores matt, and it helps that matt has the coolest job any little boy could ask for. it makes me want another little boy, so matt has more adoring fans. but i am not sure that it overshadows wanting a fancy little girl! well, i also thought that i would talk about how kyle has started boxing. thats right, he has started punching our hands with his closed fist. he also plays baseball in my kitchen with his father. he makes everyone playing wear a ball cap and stand in different positions. he is totally a little matt!! well i hope everyone is good!
