Our great big trip to the zoo.

By -
Sean left this morning for Seattle, Washington. Autumn did pretty good at the airport, but when she saw us both get out of the Jeep, she started screaming, "You have to take me with you." That made me laugh so hard. Once I got back in the Jeep, Autumn and I saw an airplane and she asked if her dad was on it. I lied and told her yes. Then she wanted to know, "Is daddy going to jump out of it?" I said that I certainly hope not!

I do have pictures to share, but they are from our trip to the zoo this past weekend.

My favorite picture of Emelia from that day.

Tomorrow Angie and I are doing a trial run where on Tuesday, she keeps my two girls and Thursday I will keep her two girls while the other goes to the gym. I'm feeling a little anxious about this because I have a feeling Emelia will cry with Angie and that Reagan will cry with me. I feel pretty certain it will be OK, but like I said, I'm just feeling a little anxious about this and hoping that it will work out A-OK. We are also having friends over tomorrow for fish tacos. I haven't ever had fish tacos and I'm really excited about that.

Hope you have a nice time in Washington. Talk to you later.

Your favorite wife and airman. xoxo

One day without you.

Snowzilla.

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e...

The man in the box.

Not really, it is just Autumn but saying the little girl in the box doesn't sound as cool. Autumn got in the box and was popping out of it. Then she told me, "Mommy, go that way." I think Autumn is on the tail end of this "cold." She already seems to be feeling better. Her nose is drying up, so that is good. I gave both of the girls a bath tonight, then I even got one! Emelia did something today that shocked me..... She rolled over. Of course that happened the day after you leave. Something else that waited for you to leave..... a 4.9 earthquake. It was the first time I've actually felt one since we moved to Alaska. It was, to say the least, scary to me! It did sound like a train/car/plane hit the house. Autumn was in rare form today. She told me that: She was going to take a nap on the stairs. Just kidding!! Such a sweet girl. Tomorrow we go to the Buckner gym for the first time with Emelia. I'm feeling a little nervous about it, but I'm...
