>Happy Mardi Gras
>My mom has started a new tradition of sending lots of Mardi Gras goodies to Conner (and now Ryleigh). Conner LOVES the balls and beads that he gets. This year, he also got some HUGE pixie sticks and 2 candy necklaces. Now, I don't typically give my kid straight sugar but Josh and I decided that it would be OK if he discovered what the candy necklace was all about. Lucky for me, Josh loves the pixie sticks so I won't eat those and neither will Conner...I have to draw the line somewhere!

>Painting is FUN!
>When Conner made Josh's Valentine's Day card, he thought it would be fun if I let him use the paint brush to actually paint paper and not just his feet. Since I am so fun, I gave him the paint brush (which was just about as big as he is), some paper and some paint. We don't paint very often because every time we've done it, he really hasn't been interested long enought to ut anything on the paper. Yesterday, was a different story. He loved it!
I know thatmy one reader everyone is waiting for my 17w belly picture. It's definitely growing. We find out on Friday if Conner is going to have a baby brother or a baby sister.

>Weekend News...this is long
>First of all, let me start by saing that we will be getting at least another inch of snow overnight tonight.
Friday, it started snowing and I was dying for Josh to come home. He didn't get off any earlier than normal, so I took Conner outside to play. He doesn't last long in the cold and wet but I enjoyed our 15min outside. He got a huge kick of watching Harley and Savannah (Rusty's dog) play in the snow. Conner let me know exactly when he was ready to go inside by throwing himself onto the wet, cold driveway.
Saturday morning, I put Conner down for his nap and Josh and I went outside. I swear, when it snows, grown men turn into 12 year olds...I'll explain. I had gone outside to take pictures of the outside of the house. We did get a few inches of snow and I wanted some proof! Well, Josh followed me and started making snowballs. I didn't really mind when he started to thow them at me; I can move out of the way. Here's where he turned into a 12 year old. He chased me down the street. Of course he caught me; guess where the snowball went? Down my shirt! Guess where the second snowball went? Down my pants! I'm a good sport so, I laughed hysterically. For 5 minutes, I totally felt like I didn't have any kids. When we came inside, Conner was screaming! So much for a nap!
Not long after we came in, the snow started to melt off of the driveway and I was thrilled! I couldn't wait to get to the hospital. I was dying to meet Miss Ryleigh. Boy is she a cutie pie! I saw her and immediately fell in love! She weighs 6lbs 3oz and is 19.5in long; such a tiny little thing. She slept the entire time we were there. I snapped a few pictures while I was there; I can't wait for her newborn shoot (so exciting!). I even got a sweet little smile. To say that I'm thrilled for my bother and sister in law is an understatement. Thrilled isn't even a strong enough adjective. I'm so happy for them, I've cried a few times (damn hormones, lol). Introducing Miss Ryleigh Elizabeth!
