I have to write these moments down before I forget them – life moves too fast!

So yesterday, Annika got into a bit of trouble before church.  She dumped cereal / milk (that I had just told her not to touch) all over her ADORABLE purple sweater dress.  (which as a total side note, it is starting to cool down here a bit!  We pulled out the pants (and sweater dress) Sunday, and it looks like we will be wearing those here on out – unless we have another heat-wave!  But I think we are done – we’re in the lower 70’s and upper 60’s now…) 

So anyway, as I am cleaning her up, and giving her a bit of a speech about how mommy just told her not to touch that…  She looks up with her big blue eyes and says “Saw-we”  YEAH…. kinda hard to be upset after that!  This is going to be a rough next 16 years if she keeps that cuteness up!  I hadn’t ever heard her say that before, but obviously she knows what it means…

Two years ago, our kids wore shorts until Mid Oct.  Last year by the end of Aug. we were in jeans and sweatshirts.  We seem to be on the every other year trend – because look at this forecast for this week –

Mon

Tue

92°F | 66°F

Wed

Thu

We have also had a big snow storm every other year… so I predict that around mid-end of Januray.  We shall see!
