Let's see if I can get back to the blogging world this week now that we are all back to normal and not very sick anymore! The last two weeks someone in our family has been sick, or we've all been sick, and this mama has had enough!
I finally went back to work last Thursday after taking five days off work! I was able to catch up a bit at work and prepare for this week, and then it snowed, and school was cancelled. So, the girls and I are home today just hanging out in our pj's.

Last Friday, Gretchen received the Student of the Month award at school. DJ and I knew about it for maybe a week or two before Gretchen actually found out. I was so excited that my assistant principal, let me go to her little ceremony at school Friday morning! We didn't tell Gretchen, but I knew she would be so excited! Every month after their assembly, she would tell me that she was not the student of the month, and that she was going to be sure to ask the student who received the award what they did in order to get it. I guess she finally learned what she needed to do and how she needed to behave in order to be chosen.
She was super proud of her certificate!
Daddy and I were both there to cheer her on!
Friday night, we went out to eat at Olive Garden to celebrate Gretchen's birthday. We take her every year to OG, because it's always been her favorite restaurant, and my cell phone wouldn't take any pictures because the memory was full. I assure you though, we had a great time and the girls each got a dessert.
DJ went to football on Saturday and the girls and I stayed home and worked on laundry. I took a little nap and Gretchen and Megan watched The Sound of Music.
DJ came home around 3 and the girls and I made chocolate chip cookies.
Gretchen had been begging me all morning for us to make cookies.
After dinner, DJ got out "Rock Band" and tried to teach Gretchen how to play. Unfortunately, Gretchen still isn't coordinated enough to play, but they did have fun singing and dancing.
We were planning on going to church Sunday morning, and just as we were waking up it started to snow.
Within 20 minutes, our front yard looked like this:
We decided to stay home because who knows what it would've been like in two hours when church was over.
Since we decided to stay home, I did some sewing:
I completed Adalyn's Valentine shirt!
And when Addy woke up from her morning nap, I discovered the her first tooth had finally broken through!
Yay Addy!
Megan said, "I step on you!" and then tried walking on my legs.
Then she wanted to hold her baby sister.
Gretchen put together one of the lego sets she received for her birthday.
DJ smoked ribs (in the snow) and we watched the Super Bowl Sunday night.
Our weekend was pretty lazy. We just enjoyed being together as a family. It was a good one!
Hope yours was too!
