We got a nice break in the cold weather, and had a couple really enjoyable days. Yesterday was 45 degrees and sunny, and was just plain awesome. I picked the kids up early from daycare, and we spent some time burning off some energy outside. The kids loved playing in the snow, and we made a tiny, little snowman, which they thought was just amazing. I also got our sled out, and attempted to pull them around and go down a couple little hills. It was ok. There is not much snow left outside, and our hills are not very sled-friendly, but they thought it was great.
Not too much has been happening around here lately. I'm finally starting to feel a little more comfortable at work, and I'm starting to not feel like such a stranger there. John has been staying busy at work as well. Last weekend, we actually had John's work's Christmas Party. We went to a restaurant downtown, and basically just ate, drank, and visited for a few hours. It was a pretty fun time. The kids spent the night at Jim and Barb's house, so John and I enjoyed sleeping in on Saturday, and having the house to ourselves for a few hours.
The rest of the weekend was filled with a baby shower for a co-worker, another trip to the Kirby Science Center, and some football. Overall, it was a pretty good weekend. Otherwise, things are pretty routine in the Nelson Household. Between work, meals, kids, and bedtimes, we don't get a whole lot else accomplished.
This coming weekend should be pretty fun. My parents are coming to town to visit, and we have a trip to Brookings planned, and we will probably visit the Children's Museum of South Dakota. It should be pretty fun.
In other news, I finally got around to Elliott's 2 year check up today. He weighs 34 pounds and is 3 ft 2 inches tall. He checked out A-ok. He does have some sinus stuff going on, and his lungs were pretty coarse sounding, so we did start some amoxicillin to hopefully get him over his crud for a little while. Poor kid has been coughing up a lung lately Emma also came along, but she was mostly there for the stickers.
