From 20 to 70 degrees in one week?


We started the week with inches of snow and frigid temperatures and ended with sun and sixty degrees. Evie got bundled up in her snowsuit but still didn't seem to be a big fan of the snow - well, maybe she'll begin to like it next year. Given her joy with slides, we're sure she'll enjoy sledding down hills. By the end of the week, it was nice and balmy, and Evie celebrated by wearing her "I Pity the Fool" Mr. T onesie in the sun.

On Saturday, the family donned their "green" apparel to check out the St. Patrick's Day Parade down King Street (yes, it's a little early but Old Town likes to boast that they have the "first" St. Patty's parade every year). We saw many bagpipers and mini-Riverdance girls but unfortunately no cute dogs like the Scottish parade to Dad's disappointment. You know it's a parade celebrating the Irish when some deliverymen had to cut through to wheel some kegs down to a restaurant, and the crowd cheered.
On Sunday morning Evie got to meet Mommy's friend Tricia and showed Andrew and Aunty Jen some of her cool toys. It was quite a scene when the mommies tried to pose the babies on the couch together - Evie and Andrew took turns crying while all frantically jumped up and down and sang "Wheels on the Bus".

Here is Evie showing off one of her new outfits to Ba's and Opa's delight.
