Mary Reese’s first snow

January 18th, 2008

We got our first good snow of the season earlier today. It started piling up around 8:00 this morning. Looking for any possible excuse to stay home with Mary Reese, I decided to work from home. Not to be outdone, Car was able to make it home early after they closed the schools for the day. Mary Reese enjoyed having her parents home on a school day and got to spend a little time outside in her snow gear.

Mr. Mom back in action

January 15th, 2008

Mr. Mom was back in action this weekend with both girls out of commission. Car was hit by a 48 hour bug Friday night, just in time for the weekend…which she spent in bed. Mary Reese wasn’t feeling well either and had a decent fever. Lucky for them, a trained professional was on the job to make them as comfortable as possible.

From G-care to Daycare

January 9th, 2008

Mary Reese enjoyed a full day of G-Care while we finalized our childcare plans Monday. We had found a nice place for her thanks to a little help from a friend, but still needed to check it out. After taking a look around yesterday afternoon, we decided to give it a try. I always thought it was hard to find a decent place to board Sadie, but childcare requires a whole new level of trust. As you can see from the first picture, MR wasn’t worried about the transition at all.

In fact, she laughed at me when I told her that I was
taking her to an unfamiliar place to leave her with complete strangers.
Note the look of concern when she realized I wasn’t kidding…
“You’re going to come get me at the end of the day, right???”
