The Algeras

Anyway, as you could probably tell from the picture, Sara went outside to play in the snow yesterday.  Everyone is feeling much better, no more noroviris!  Sara learned how to make snowballs, and even practiced throwing a few.  As usual, once she got outside, she didn't want to come inside, even though her cheeks were red and her lips were blue.  Emily finally lured her inside by telling her she could make cookies for daddy (good idea!).  Once inside, Em tried to distract here with something else, but Sara insisted "I make cookies for daddy!"  (good girl!)  So they made some peanut butter cookies, and Sara helped measure ingredients and mix things.  They were delicious, thanks girls!

David has continued to be very happy and playful (as much as a 5ish month old can play).  He likes pretty much anything that rattles, and he likes grinning back when grinned at.  He even belly laughs sometimes!  The only problem was that he continued to be happy and playful most of the night last night.  He had both of us up quite a bit, not crying or fussing, but cooing and laughing?!?!?!  Who knows... Hopefully, tonight is a better night.

Which brings us to now.  I am holding down the fort for the evening, Emily is at a "girls night out" with the girls in our church middle school group.  They are having a sleep-over, but Emily is just staying for a few hours.  She has to be up early for her ACLS class tomorrow.  Extra points for anyone who posts a comment with what you think that stands for!
