Almost Spring

Again.
Sydney listening to her music on the iPod, watching TV, and refusing to look directly at the camera.
Again.
I can't believe March is here. It seems like it was just Christmas time. I have some Easter flowers sticking out now, Yay! Spring is almost here. I can not wait for warm weather and to be done with this semester!!!!!!! Scott too!!
We have been crazy busy during the week and the last two weekends we have had guests. Which is awesome. Last weekend, Sara, Jerry, Jane, Bill, and Kaitlyn came for a visit. It was fun and the girls both loved it. Sydney was so busy playing that she didn't want to leave so Jane and Bill stayed home with the girls while I went out for lunch with Sara, Jerry, Kaitlyn, and her mother. We went to Johnny Carino's and it was delicious. Scott had to go to a football conference in Indianapolis so he was gone most of the day.
Scott was gone to ISU this weekend, so Mom and Dad came up to stay with the girls and me. Although it flew by, we had a nice visit and I got a lot of homework done. Dad cooked for us both nights and it was delicious. We had crab legs one night and a skillet beef roast the next. Yum.
We are planning on a visit home during Spring Break which starts March 12. We haven't been home since Christmas. I can't wait. We are going to try to hit up the Schnitzelbank for their Friday nights in lent fest.
Miss you all.

Long time no update









I know that it has been awhile since I have updated, I have been slacking. We have been very busy with school for both of us. Thank goodness it will be over soon! We can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
We have enjoyed some snow days recently. Sydney and I were able to go out one day before the wind came to build a snowman. She named him Frosty and is VERY proud of him. She also thought that it was fun to make snow angels. I don't think that there is any spot untouched in our backyard.
The girls are growing like crazy and it seems as if they are doing something "new" on a daily basis. We downloaded the potty dance song and Sydney is really in to doing the potty dance, not so much the actual pottying on the potty part. The song is really catchy and cute and she sings along to it. One line goes "ditch the diapers and do the dance......Let's all wear our Big Kid pants!!!" She loves it.
Hannah is extremely fast and mobile now. She is pulling up wherever she can and has taken a few tumbles but keeps on moving. She is putting everything in her mouth. Scott fished half of a crayon out of her mouth the other day. We are trying to get Sydney to help us watch out for Hannah and to be sure to put her toys up if she drops them so Hannah can't get them.
Scott has a little less than a month before track season starts. His plan is to be done with all of his grad school work before then so he can coast the rest of the school year. He is really making good progress so far.
We haven't been home since Christmas and I am really missing everyone. In addition to not seeing anyone, I haven't really talked to anyone either. Mom and Dad and Jane and Bill have come up to visit. I have talked with Erica and Kaycie a couple of times mixed in there too. I miss you all and I can't wait to see you! I hope to make it down there before too long. I hear the weather is supposed to be snowy next weekend too. In the meantime, we are all doing great and would love to see anyone if they would like to come up for a visit!!!
