Whew! We ended our vacation week by skiing 4 days with a full day of sledding in the middle. Addie likes to "do the slopes" (her words), and the girls love ending the day at the Smugg's pool. Isabella has gone in a couple of times, but she has decided to wait until they get the pool temp back up into the high eighties before she goes in again. Addie and Lily are doing a great job skiing. They were awesome in the two feet of powder that we skied in on Sunday!

We all had a wonderful vacation (it was great to have Daddy home for the week), but it is kind of nice to be back in our regular routine. Not that things are calm! Addie has basketball every Saturday morning and starts her Friday ski program this week (the elementary school brings the kids up to the mountain for the afternoon), the girls both start their after school activities next week, and Addie starts art class in two weeks. Not that we like to keep them busy...

Biggest news of the moment: Bella has not thrown up a bottle since New Year's morning!!! This is a record, and we are all thrilled. We may not enjoy the 2 a.m. feeding, but we are so happy that she is keeping down her food. Next adventure...she starts solid foods in two weeks!!!
