SNOW DAY!

I'm sure ALMOST all of you reading this have in some way been affected by the blizzard (as it took up almost half of the U.S!) Snow in Madison started yesterday around 4:00 p.m., and was very heavy. Thank goodness I got home around 3:45, because the Interstate and Beltline were a mess! Reese was supposed to have her 6 mo. appt. yesterday at 4:30, but they called and asked to move it up, so Kyle took her at 3:15. She received 3 regular shots, and the first round of her flu shot. We have to go back in a month for her second flu shot. According to Kyle, she did pretty good (I think it was harder on him). They both got home around 4, when I did and she drank a bottle and went to sleep for almost 2 hours. Here are her 6 mo stats:
Height: 27" (87%tile)
Weight: 16 lbs 7.5 oz (56%tile)
Head: 42 cm (33%tile)
She is getting longer and losing weight, but still within normal range.

Kyle spent the majority of the morning digging/blowing us out. It took almost 2 hours of snow blowing and shoveling to get it clear. I was sure not heartbroken that I had to stay inside with Reese. It looked nasty out there! The snow has stopped now and we are bracing for below zero temps.

In conjunction with the blizzard, our hot water heater went out (of course). After Kyle got done shoveling, he then tackled the task of fixing it. After 2 hours, lots of cuss words, and a blow dryer to melt the ice away from the exhaust outside, he managed to fix it. So much for a relaxing snow day!
