In the past week....

Charlotte started eating cereal


The kids enjoyed playing in the snow (before the arctic temperatures came)



We enjoyed a long visit with my mom, Racine, and Aiden. Charlotte worried her cousin Aiden. There was a lot of that. I think he was quite entertained as well as frightened at times by the noise around here.



We had a good day in Chicago at the Museum of Science and Industry. Peter and my dad took this gears activity very seriously- not sure who enjoyed it more!



The kids had a teeny tiny tea party with grandma






I got me some new jewelry

I am totally jealous of your nose ring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

You look fantastic with it!!

How bad did it hurt?

Rachel Marie said...

Sarah- it hurt like it was being pinched- not as bad as I was expecting. I had heard that it's not as bad as getting your ear cartillage pierced and I'd have to agree. It's a little red and tender still (a week later), but I'm pretty sure that will go away soon.
