Camera number 2 - Broken

Not sure how many of you know that story about our point and shoot camera. So here it is.

After Dan and I were married we went to Aruba for our honeymoon, which was fabulous! Thanks Jan and Dave for the time share. So our big present to ourselves with some wedding money was a new digital camera, which we bought in Aruba. We loved it! However when we got home we realized that we over paid for the darn thing by about $100. So I came to hate this camera because of that.

Dan and I were still finishing up college and during homecoming weekend here in Stevens Point. Dan drops the camera, to no repair! So we got the same camera again. Then last night as we had friends over hanging out on our porch, Dan was taking pictures and drops the camera. And it is broken again! Now I am kicking my self because I was going to get a really nice SLR for Christmas from everyone but I said no lets wait, till Dan and I can afford a nicer one. Why did I say that!?! Now I have NO camera, and a little boy who is growing leaps and bounds, and I have nothing to capture the moments with!

One cute one to tell you about was he got his hands on a roll of paper towel today. Well that roll is not usable any more but was so funny watching him play with it. No pictures to share though. I will have some soon, to post, some family pictures for Christmas.

Through and Through

I love all sides of my little guy! I love his giggles and cries, I love his hair and eyes. I love him laughing and talking, and especially silent and napping! I love him through and through, today and tomorrow too!

Let it Snow

I am sure that most of you have experienced a Wisconsin winter if not, well here is what it is like.

Today we got our first really big snow storm of the year. I would have loved to have been at home playing all day with my little munchkin. But I had to trudge to work this morning and that is what I did! It isn't that far for me to walk to work, only about three blocks, small ones at that. In that three blocks though i was walking in snow up to my knees! People couldn't make it in to work because they were plowed in. Needless to say it was a pretty crazy day. Walking home the sidewalks were all cleared but, the snow banks are already almost up to my hips. I am 5' 6" so that isn't very short!

Now this is just the first storm of the year. We are going to get many more and it probably won't stop until April. On the up side we got to bundle up Darren to see how he likes the snow!

He really wasn't a fan of the snow yet. But he will be soon, or we are going to have a problem!
