Some days aren’t a “Snow globe winter paradise” up here like I know you all think. It’s 2 degrees out with a windchill of -21 and wind gusts up to 45 mph. A real winter wonderland.

Well, we did it again. We located this year’s tree just North of town in a ditch. The road was busy yesterday but only one passerby slowed to see just what we were up to. This one’s a lot bigger than last year and a little less brown. Phil was proud very proud of it.
He even helped with the lights! Yes, we’re risking lights this year.
Lily was confused the whole time. She did start to look at the tree with a little more acceptance today.
All done except for the topper. No topper yet. Hopefully I can get one soon. Maybe that’s why Lily’s still a bit wary of this intruder.>Snow and Santa!

Lots more snow for Bancroft. I hate to say it but it was actually really pretty this day. We had large flakes falling. And yes, I said “It looks like a snow globe!” again. But hey, it did.
We had to let Lily see (and taste behind my back)…thanks Daddy.
Last Saturday Santa came to town. We put Lily on his lap and Phil told him she wants a large screen TV for Christmas. I’m not sure how Lily felt about the whole experience, she didn’t cry but made sure we weren’t going anywhere.

We’ve decided to take on the challenges and benefits of cloth diapering our babies. We got our first round of “prefolds” last week. They’re too small, but do the trick until we can get bigger ones. Lily doesn’t seem to notice the change, probably because I’ve managed not to stick her with a pin yet. They’re a little more work, but sooo cute!!
Daddy “feeding” Lily.
