low-tide bike ride

We got two rental bikes on Tybee for only $8 per day, so we rode to the ice cream shop and rode back on the beach:

birthday flowers and cake

Ice cream cake leftovers, anyone?

Happy Birthday Carrie

We were supposed to take a birthday weekend trip to Granger (grandpa Peterson had one last week) but then Corrie got really sick yesterday :(

If she was born on the 29th, she'd only be 7 years old. Here's to a better day than yesterday!

the waiting game

7 more days??
"Are you ready yet, mommy?! Ready, set goooo!"

Christmas time

Corrie wanted to wrap herself the other night. We had some USP student council people over and she played in the box that our t-shirts came in..
Last night was the USP staff holiday party. The air/wind chill must've been under 20! She discovered peanut M&Ms :) and got to unwrap whit-elephant presents.

Today we played outside in the snow - snow shovel rides, snow angels, and of course eating it. Video to come later. Tonight we need to finish the tree. It's up, but just has lights - no ornaments yet. Carrie's fam was supposed to be here today, but they had to turn around because of the roads :( Happy birthday, Tod!
Carrie's nesting, I think, with her bag packed and asking me to haul the bassinet upstairs :) She had an appointment Fri. morning and she's dilated 1cm, everything normal. She even got a tour of the place.

We're listening to a nice Christmas playlist at http://www.live365.com/cgi-bin/mini.cgi?membername=planetmike&tm=4860
