Beautiful Snow!

What an exciting way for a child to wake up! Who would have guessed that a trip to the coast would lend itself to discovering snow. My parents had about 3 inches!

Granddaddy and Greer check on Scout

Aunt Ash finally convinces Greer to feel the snow.

Playing in the snow.

They were running around (maybe to keep warm?).
I am pleased to announce that Greer likes the cold and snow as much as her mother- not at all. We will continue to be a warm weather family for sure!

Funny Greer

I just thought I should make a note of some of the funny things Greer has started noticing about us this week. Thursday night Chad came home earlier than I expected, and we were excited about playing together as a family after dinner. Greer and I were sitting in a chair, and somehow she pulled up the leg on my pants. I had been alone a couple of days, so I hadn't really had time to shave my legs. She thought it was crazy! She rubbed my legs, and said "hot" indicating a "do not touch" message. Chad and I thought it was hillarious, and so she kept doing it. With compiments few and far between these days, I decided to take the literal meaning of the adjective she chose. Greer thinks that mommy has hot legs!

She has been equally enamored by Chad's facial hair since that experience. If he has a scruffy face, she will not give him good night kisses. This morning while we were getting ready for church, Chad brought Greer into the bathroom and she watched him shave. She didn't quite know what to think about the shaving cream (and probably sitting still), but she like his smooth face. It sure is fun to watch her figure out her world!

Christmas

Could anyone help me locate December and the first half of January? We'll blame it on moving, but I can't keep up with my life these days. (Much less pictures) Here are a few. I have all of them posted on facebook, if you want to see more.Merry Christmas Greer!

Greer got a kitchen from us.
Greer is in her Christmas dress, her new apron, and she is eating "trash" aka Chex Mix.

With 3 kiddos, you can imagine the chaos at the Tidds. They had so much fun, but we learned to open a gift and play for a while before opening another.
