I'm in between night shifts tonight, and so I spent the day sleeping all cozy and warm in my bed while my little family had a Saturday out in the snow. I had watched the white stuff come down all night, the large windows in the birthing rooms are pretty great for watching snow flakes collect in the light of the street lamps.
We weren't really prepared for snow and so Ben's yellow rain suit had to do double duty with lots of bundling underneath. Note the Halloween spider hat, 'someone' picked that one out all on their own! At least we got multiple uses out of that Halloween costume!




By the time I got up and started sipping some java, the snow was nearly gone except for an old dusting on the grass. I can still feel the coolness creeping in from outside. Those large condo windows that help with a gorgeous water views are pretty bad at keeping the cold out and the warm in. I'm going to go and snuggle with my boy before I head off to work.
Well, Hello There!
Mama in the City since 2008 and blogging since 2009!
My first apartment baby is now a full on boy and we struggle with finding space in our condo for his growing toy collection. I'm also a new mum to our second apartment baby, born January 13, 2012!
I have a husband who is an excellent cook and takes amazing photos. I work as a labor and delivery nurse and really love the work that I do and gave birth to baby #2 at my work place.
I use this space to write about my family and to share my passion about breastfeeding, birth and parenting. I have a fantastic purse collection and have loved watching it grow, mostly lovely gifts over the years from my husband. I currently have a closet full of purses that are too small or impractical to fit a diaper or sippy cup in, and so they are on hold for future years.
Have a question or a comment? Email me! I also love to read comments left on posts, so feel free to leave me a note!
