Printer problems

A few weeks ago we decided to replace our old (old, old, old) printer with a fancy new one. It worked well for about a week, then declared itself jammed and despite our best efforts to convince it otherwise, HP ended up replacing it. The new one arrived yesterday and works like a charm, except it won’t print in color. Gah! I was mumbling and complaining just now to Lex about having to deal with HP again and figure this out (I’ve been on chat support with them now for awhile and the dude has no idea, he keeps asking where I bought the printer from!) and sweet Lex says, “We can just color it in with markers or crayons. It’s ok Mom.” Isn’t he sweet!? :)

Happy March

Happy March! We are counting down the days until Spring and Eve’s birthday. Both exciting events around here :) We have been lucky with lots of sunny days lately, but I’m very much ready for warm weather. Ready to go outside without two layers and big boots. Ready to retire the snow shovels for the season. Just plain ready.

We’ve been busy lately. I have to go get Lex at the bus stop in just a minute (early release today!), but here are a few quick pictures from the past few days…

Snowy tree

Friday's snow storm

Snowy porch

This porch was completely cleared off Thursday night... then it started snowing again.

Hugging girls

We had fun with friends this weekend. Eve and Molly (and Lex too!) play so well together.

Dinosaur game

We got out a game that we used to play long before any of us had kids. Lex really enjoyed it.

Dinner

Giggly girls at dinner

Teeth

Three in a row, brushing those pearly whites!

Sunday snow

We got more snow on Sunday. Seriously. Do you see why I'm tired of snow? The banks lining my driveway are taller than I am!

Eve painting

My friend came over the other day to take some pictures of Eve painting rocks for a story in a magazine. Eve HAPPILY obliged! She loves painting rocks :)

Silly girl

Eve painting her hand

Hmm... she seems to have missed the rock... time to be done painting.

I’m in a total funk these days. Not sure why. The eating is out of control, I’ve lost all motivation for WW, my to-do list just grows and grows…. sigh. I need something, just not sure what. Unfortunately the delicious Cherry Almond Scones from KAF that Eve and I made today are not it, despite the fact that I’ve eaten almost all of them! I think I need more sleep. Must work on that…

Chow for now!
