I was forced to put a picture of myself on the blog... Just focus on the cute one in purple!
Marie got to enjoy the snow days too! She stayed home from 'school' for a couple days to hang out with us!
Marie is getting bigger every day. She can stand for a minute if you prop her up. She reaches for toys now and is quite the talker! She tells all sorts of stories. I am convinced that she exaggerates a little bit...
We took a family trip out to the desert where Teddy got abused by a cactus. Our yard is much more enjoyable now. No more driving the truck through the middle of our yard! 
For Halloween in IA, Marie got to be a little chilli pepper. She got Teddy and I some good candy.
