A day to remember

Today the snow really came down. Nate told me I better shovel the snow before he got home. (I guess he thought it is my turn to shovel.) So I thought, this will be fun for Connelly to get his first taste of the snow. He didn't like it at all when I sat him down in the actual snow, but he did okay if I was holding him or if I put him in the stroller. I put him in the stroller and did our drive way. Then I decided to be an over achiever for once in my life and did the next two neighbor's drive ways too. Connelly and I had a blast. He loved watching me work and sing Christmas songs to him. Daxton and Connor, my two nephews, came out to help me shovel snow too. Daxton loved my snow shovel and asked "Where did you get it?" in a way that only Daxton can say. Kind of in a snide way. I told him Walmart and he could get one too. He actually really did help once he had a good snow shovel.
The next two things are the stories that I really want to remember. Once I came in from shoveling snow, Connelly of course had a really runny and buggery nose. I got the blue snot sucker upper. You know the one they give you from the hospital. I had been using it a lot and didn't think about maybe blowing it out with all the snot that I have been collecting. Well, I went to press the bulb end in and it would depress in. I then pushed REALLY HARD and sure enough it pressed inward but at Connelly's expense. The reason it wouldn't decompress is because it was full of his snot and once I pushed hard enough, yep you got it, all that snot came out finally and into Connelly's hair. LOL!!!
The other thing that I want to remember, right after the burger attack, I thought I'll check Connelly for a dirty diaper. So like so many times before, I raise his cute little bum up to my face, clothes on of course, just to give the sniff test first. Right as I'm sniffing, Connelly farts. Yes, he farted right in his mommy's face. What a kid!!!!

Sun Valley, Idaho 2021

We stayed at a cute log cabin by the path that goes from Sun Valley to Hailey. There was a huge open field where we were able to throw the ball and play with the dogs in the snow. We ate lunches out and cooked the other meals in the cabin.  Connelly got  the French dip, Nate got the Pastrami, Kate got Macaroni salad and I got the Acai bowl! This was our fourth year going to SunValley.  We love to shop at the  thrift store, Gold Mine.  We found a lamp, board games, Sorrel snow boots for kate, beanies, and Corral plates for the kitchen!! GOLD MINE! Connelly went to Bald Mountain for the first time.  He was able to ski just as fast if not as fast as me.  The ski runs there are so long.  I never took the kids because they are  so long and I thought they wouldn't last two runs.  Connelly and I did 5 runs!!  It was so fun.  Then we got the souvenir pins for Dolla...

Just hang'n with my BOY

Connelly has been so fun now that he is potty trained. Yes you heart me, HE IS POTTY TRAINED. Not one accident in two weeks. He will even tell me when he has to go when he is busy playing. I know this is abnormal and I'm very fortunate. I ran upon these picks from this summer and just thought how cute they were. We went to Cherry Hill resort in Kaysville this summer and had a lot of fun.
