mom, that little boy is taking all of our snow!!!

"Winter Blast 2007" came and went without much of a blast...a bit of snow here and there and icy patches about town. Of course, the media over-anticipated and the schools over-reacted with school closures. Funny thing is Evelyne really wanted to go skiing with dad in the snow and I kept having to explain there's not enough to ski on. She loved looking at it outside though and was very upset to find a little boy using snow from our yard to throw at his friends. "mom! that little boy is taking all of our snow!!!"

Gilbert is now 2 1/2 months and is really starting to express his personality. Still fairly mild mannered, he definitely knows if mom or dad aren't holding him. He's almost holding his head up all the time and can sit for a while with some help. He loves sitting on laps rather than lying down. He also really loves watching big sister and coos at her like crazy.
