Update

It has been awhile is I wrote a post and alot has happened in the time between. We went to Kansas to visit family for the holidays and are now back to school and work and getting the house back in order.

Our trip was fun. Annika is a good traveler. She mainly slept on the airplane and did well in the car until the end of the trip in each direction. The picture was taken after we landed in Kansas City. She and Alex were stretching their legs while we waited for David to show up with the rental car (Annika sure has a great big brother). Everyone was happy to see us. Annika took to everyone. She loved playing with her cousins and meeting everyone else. I will post some pictures of our trip and Christmas morning later.

Now we are home getting back into the routine of school and other stuff. We had a snow day on Wednesday because we were supposed to get another bad ice storm (our neighborhood was spared). Annika is cutting four molars right now so she has the crankies from time to time. They are all at different stages of breaking though. Alex is getting used to doing homework again after almost two weeks out of school.

I have joined the biggest loser group at school. I also joined sparkpeople.com which is similar to weight watchers online (except for its all free). I have been using it for a week now and have my weigh in on Monday so we'll see how it goes.
