Clear Skies and SNOW!

Clear skies this past week meant that our temperatures dropped and the snow fell!
It only snowed on Tuesday and we have about 4 inches. Not that I'm ready for winter yet, but the snow was a nice change from the grey skies and endless rainstorms.  Everything is a little brighter now with the white stuff on the ground.  Time to dig out the snow gear!


We are approaching the end of 6 months with Lukkas. It is more and more challenging to have the kids sit together and get a decent picture of both of them.  I just love the new clothes that arrived for Lukkas this week thanks to Grandma Julie for shipping them up to us.  Crazy thing about living in Alaska  - I had our Halloween outfits as part of the order, and if I had it shipped straight to Cordova, it wasn't going to be here until October 25th. Well, I've learned that it may say it will arrive in Cordova on that date, but it could be two weeks later before I actually receive my packages.  So, I had the items shipped to my mom's in Wisconsin, which she so kindly then repackaged in flat rate boxes and we received them in no time! Lukkas is wearing one of the new outfits I ordered.

The items I ordered were mostly for Lukkas as he has out grown the clothes I had for him.  According to the companies size chart, Lukkas is in the 12 month size already! YIKES!! Here he is snoozing away in his new jammies. My camera couldn't do justice to how big he looks. 
Leinna continues to make us laugh everyday.  Her new thing is to lay on the back of the couch. This is where she likes to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. Seems like I remember laying on the back of my couch as a young girl, too.  :0)  Leinna is also working on potty training.  Who would have thought potty training is more about training the parent when to take the toddler to the bathroom, then actually training the toddler how to go?!? 


Finally, this is our new routine in the morning. Leinna loves to sit with her brother while I get him dressed for the day. They just laugh and talk with each other. What a great way to start the day.
