2. Walking--or rather, watching Lydia learn to walk. She is loving it even though she has a nasty cold and can't eat a thing...it doesn't slow her down much.
3. Hot cocoa--I am actually the only one in the family who likes it but at least it is bringing someone Joy!
4. Organizing--with the second trimester of a pregnancy comes more energy and a little urge called "Nesting." You could say I am there. I am trying to figure out how to put three girls into one tiny bedroom with all their clothes in the same closet. It has been exciting!
5. Facebook--another thing that the girls don't really enjoy...but provides a needed out for mom.
6. Princess Dresses--so the princess dresses from Christmas continue to be a huge hit. I have repaired them all at least once and have one waiting for it's third visit to the sewing machine. Not high quality but boy have they been used!
7. Kites--The weather has been perfect for flying kites...that is except the day we flew them...it was below freezing and ended up snowing later that afternoon. But our bones have nearly thawed and we'll be back out again soon.
8. Games--from Hide-n-seek to Chutes and Ladders...we love any sort of game. Lydia's new favorite is Ring Around the Rosie...I wish I could have captured her face on film when she realized what was going on...let's just say she LOVED it!
9. Strawberries--they were on sale at King Soopers this week and Daniel brought home 4 containers...we had angel food cake with them and it was Divine. Daniel and I even had a fondue night together with fresh strawberries...it was Fabulous!
10. The Ultrasound--that is right...I am 20 weeks as of yesterday and here is a picture of baby #4! No news on the gender...we will let you know in June! 
So what are you doing to Survive the Winter Woes?

Love that Lydia is walking- I can't believe it. We must be on the same wave length because I have been doing some nesting too! I picked up strawberries today and Ben loved them. He ate half the package;)
I stay inside all day long and study. I prefer not to get any sunlight. That helps me survive the winter woes...whoops, I mean thrive the winter woes. That sky is beautiful! I miss blue skies. Seriously, nine days out of ten, we have a complete overcast all day long during the winter.
What are you talking about? The weather is absolutely gorgeous! It is 70 degree weather and I just had some icecream. You are always welcome to visit.
Wow! You were able to hide a pregnancy for 17 weeks!?!?! Impressive, Jill.
So, why is it that we never see you guys anymore? We should get together some time! I know my girls would love to play with your little ones. Do you still have our home phone? Call or email us.
The pics of Lydia are too cute. I am loving this high energy time as well, I have been waking up at 6:00 without an alarm regardless of what time I go to bed...man I wish I would have this type of energy at school. I think the fluorescent lights at school were always sucking the life out of me like in Joe vs. the Volcano. Although sometimes I feel that way at work and the cockroaches join me, good times.
Congrats Jill! I'm so excited for you and your family. Your girls are so adorable. I found your blog on Jenete's. I am also expecting. I'm due July 4th. We are not far apart!
