Last winter it was easier to have a little one in the house. She was only a year and a half. She wasn't quite so active. The picture below is the first time Katelyn has stood still in 100 consecutive days. Please soak up this shot where she stands so compliantly...so serene...so still...because it's quite possible that it will never happen again.
All that to say...it's REALLY cold and snowy outside and we're having to get creative with our winter activities. Katelyn decided that the heart beads that Grammy sent her for Valentine's Day are really a plate of spaghetti. Yum Yum!!!
Below you will discover the reason why you don't actually have to send Katelyn presents. Just send Rubbermaid. Katelyn loves to sit in a box and play.
She is content to climb in and out. I read her a story while she sat in the box. She flipped the box on its side and made a cave. She wanted the lid put on the box so she could hide in her "cool spot".
Apparently Katelyn is not bigger than 18 gallons yet. :)
I mean really, this tub kept her busy for a long time last night. It was time for bed and she was just getting geared up.
And then the fun really began. The tub became an airplane and the delightful squeals commenced. Katelyn said the phrase, "Michael, Michael, spin me again." over and over. I don't think he really minded. :) How can you refuse this little girl? They spun and spun until they both looked like drunken sailors wobbling about.
Maybe winter's not all that bad after all.

She looks beautiful as always. Two updates in a week are certainly appreciated by us Michigan eskimos. Just glad we don't live in Maryland! As for me, I'm looking forward to spring! Love and miss you lots. a.b.
