Helmets



While I was in VA the twins had their final appointment for their heads. They had an appointment a month earlier and Jen got the choice then to have them wear the helmets another month or call it good. The doctor said another month would probably be good so she went with it. Well going another month knocked another .02 off (whatever that means), all I know is their heads are a lot more round then when they started. It'll be so nice to not have to give them a bath every day and clean the helmets. It kind of would be nice to see a before and after picture. We never thought of it before.

Snow Fort

My flight back from VA got in today around 10ish this morning and decided to take the rest of the day off to play with the kids since I haven't seen them for so long. I spent the early afternoon just chasing the boys around the house and after Hayley got home from preschool I took her outside to build a snow man. The snow was still not sticky enough so I ended up trying to build her a snow fort. After a couple cave-ins I finally got it. Hayley really wasn't that interested in the fort. She kept asking if she could climb on it. I guess she is just into different things then when I was a kid. I used to love building snow forts. I'd have the back yard shoveled and the sidewalk would stay snowed in.

As for Hayley's fort here are some pics.


After this picture I dug it out more. The inside is about twice the size now.

First Class

I've been so spoiled this year. I've got to fly in first class just about every flight I've taken to VA. I love first class especially on these Embraer airplanes. They are smaller so they seat 2 by 2 in coach so and 1 by 2 in first class. There are no isle seats which is cool. Anyway, I'm flying back home early as the power is being turned off to do electrical work on the ship for two weeks so there was really no need to stay here. I'm excited to see the family again. Not so excited to see six inches of snow though. Boooo. Hopefully it's sticky snow so Hayley and I can make a snow man. The snow this year has sucked for it so far.
