We spent a lot of time at Nana and Papa's house last weekend because poor Timber (my horse) had surgery and needed some TLC. In bettween playing doctor we got to go fishing in the pond. Note to self: never go fishing alone with Dylan. Bring Daddy. I gave D his own cane pole complete with wine cork floater (that's all I had!) and fake worm and I attempted to use a real pole to show Dylan how to catch a fish. I grabbed Ben's tackle box and rigged up my cane pole with a hook and hotdog. The pond is loaded with bass so I really did think I would catch one. We had just a few small problems to deal with 1) Dogs 2)fishing line/hooks and 3)toddler! Dylan and I started here at the hill and then headed over to the flat part. Well while we were walking to our next spot Dylan tripped and fell down. I was being so careful not to let my hook get a dog or my baby but as soon as he fell down I laid my pole on the ground to scoop him up and yep...Scout grabbed my hook/hotdog and immediately tried to swallow it all! I seriously dont know how he didn't swallow it but we somehow escaped disaster. I ended up chunking my pole and we'll try again when we have the professional daddy fisherman to catch a fish. It was an exhausting excursion while 8 months preggo!!!!
Waking up to snow (well actually ice). It snowed one time at Christmas when Dylan was 2 months old but we actually got to enjoy this one a little! He was so excited to wake up to snow on the ground!
Throwing ice with our neighbor, Charlie
Cold, snowy days means lots of baking and cooking with Mimi!
Washing dishes is great entertainment!!!
Oh, thank you Dylan for reminding me that I needed to get my hair cut! While visiting our friends the Bumm's Dylan ran a toy car through my hair. We spent a good 20 minutes or so getting one handful out but this is what was left and we had to chop it. Good thing layers are in right now!
