Check this out. Lance had to go to work yesterday morning -but not to do any engineering - to trim trees. The newspaper wrote an article about the conditions in Rogers and what the city was doing about it. Check it out. http://www.nwaonline.net/articles/2009/01/28/news/012909bzrogerscity.txt

Homemade Bread

I tried my hand at homemade bread again and it turned out so so. I'll be trying it again and seeing if I can do any better. It just wasn't fluffy enough. Lexa liked it though.

Well, someone likes my bread...

First blog with my new phone

Well we are at home again today because of the icy roads and also because Lexa is not feeling well. She's been really congested and started running a fever last night. Poor girl. What makes it really bad is that she does not like to take medicine, we usually sneak it into a cup of juice but if she won't drink her juice I have to wrap her up and try to get it in her mouth while she is crying and spitting it back at me. Well it actually wasn't that bad last night - she didn't spit it out this time.

1st Tooth, Frozen Trees & Free Dr. Pepper

This little guy isn't even 4 months old yet and he has his first tooth! Amazing! You can see it in this picture pretty well, and the one next to it is coming in too. He is such a trooper because I couldn't even tell that his gums were bothering him and I just noticed the little chicklet in there Monday night! This is very early for a first tooth; between 4 to 7 months is the norm. (He did not like me taking this picture and i felt like a bad mommy after I blinded him with the flash. Yeah, memories!!...)

I thought this was a really cool picture of the trees behind our house. We got hit by a really nasty ice storm that began Monday afternoon. When i was driving home around 1pm I saw a lot of slipping and sliding and cars off the road. Very scary. I've been home ever since. I have more pictures I plan on posting later. Our power was out yesterday from about 10:30am to 8:30pm. A lot of cities around here are still out of power. The city i work in is still out, and not expected to be back in until Saturday. Wow! There was a fatal accident Monday afternoon here in town also.
