Sunshine and Snow

A few weeks ago, more like 4, I was examining my pregnant bod and then proceeded to weigh myself.  I said something to Perris like "Well I haven't gained any pounds since the last time I weighed myself!"  With his sweet, kind, well meaning words he said something like "...Well then how are you growing?"  Which immediately interpreted to "well then why are you getting fatter??"  Which did NOT offend me, but made me laugh so much because he was trying as politely as possible to inquire about this phenomenon.  We are still laughing about it.

 (We are playing with our 3D glasses, which was extremely hilarious, especially when Mom wore them *below)
 
I'm definitely noticing I'm a tad more emotional.  Like when I made a comment in church yesterday and felt the tears coming on and just like LOST IT, it was so embarrassing on the inside because I just was like "WHY am I crying??"  although it was a tender story I was sharing.  Oh well, I am still a really nice girl.

Wade is my little MAN.  Really.  He learns a new word like everyday, and loves to wrestle and play.  This can turn into a slight problem with other children come over and I hear the said child crying and when I look over the child is pinned to the ground with Wade SITTING ON THE CHILD'S HEAD with a triumphant, delighted smile!  He means well, really.  Perris would be delighted himself if Wade would have done that to him!

Wade and I took a short walk today.  The best thing about Utah winters is that they are SUNNY.  (When there's not an inversion!)  It did us good to get out, especially Wade.  He was on his tippy-toes in an effort to push the stroller with his hands properly placed on the handles.  (I, of course, was fantasizing about my desired double stroller all throughout this walk...! HAH)  Wade went out on the deck the other day to shovel snow.  How thoughtful.  He loves to put on his boots, and pronounces it
"BÜT" (I hope that is the correct symbol to portray the sound I am thinking).  It is adorable.

About a month til our big trip to NY.  I just fantasize about all the food I want to eat there.  Haha!  But when thinking of its fast approach yesterday, I got a little sad!  I think it will be hard to leave Wade for a week!  But he will have a great time playing with his cousins for that time...and we are planning something nice to pay back Jami and James for their kind acceptance to take in Wade.
