Snow and a baby

 We got about 7 inches of snow...it blew around a fair bit in the night time. 

Well at least it covered up the dirty old snow for now. 

In the night my phone was beeping...it was my baby brother sending a photo of his #13 Grand!  

9 pounds 4 ounces welcome to the family Kian!  We will probably get to meet him next Summer. 

We had a quiet day...some laundry...some crafts and a pan of lasagna for supper. 

Minnesota weather: High 18F or -8C  Low was 4 or -16C  We are headed back into the deep freeze for the weekend...

We completed 11 out of 21 appointments this week...we could count it 12 out of 22 because we had to go back to one clinic because they forgot to do a test....we barely got home and they called and said to come right back.  Can you say ...organized???

The Greats

 The Greats are all growing like weeds! 

Ohhh...impressed by sisters cake!

Baby K cannot have cake yet...she has no teeth.  She is motivating around on the floor by rolling where she wants to go.  Not crawling yet. 

We have a blizzard warning and a winter snow advisory for Friday.  It is supposed to be real windy.

6

 Cee Cee is 6 years old.  We celebrated her properly with a great supper...mac and cheese, pulled pork on buns, coleslaw...and birthday cake! 

The candles relit but she was a trooper and kept blowing them out! 

Hard to believe she is six years old!

2nd eye

 Far Guy had his last eye surgery yesterday.  The left eye this time.  It all went well.  

The total number of drops in EACH eye is 159 over four weeks.  Good thing we have a chart to fill out with the times. 

8 out of 19 appointments completed. 

Some of the snow has melted in the front yard. Dirty snow remains.

Minnesota weather:  High was 32F or 0C  Low was 13 or -11C. Mostly cloudy.

As I write this on Tuesday late afternoon...Andy is cooking up a storm in the kitchen...it is Cee Cees 6th birthday and she requested a surprise supper...but she said "It better be good!"

Book Club 2026: March

 We read another historical fiction book for book club.

The Lost Apothecary by Sarah Penner

I gave it an 8 out of 10 on my scale.  Parts of it seemed to be interjected willy nilly and didn't really go along with one of the female lead characters. 

Everyone said they enjoyed the book.
