As you can tell from this picture, however, a certain member of our family is enjoying the weather. We happened upon a super-cheap pair of snow pants on a clearance rack in his size (miracle!) and suited him up last week to go explore the frozen tundra that is our backyard. The snow was so deep that he had a really hard time walking it in, but he had a fantastic time. And when he saw his swing dangling from the tree, he insisted on swinging in it. As you can imagine looking at this picture, he was squealing with excitement. He also tried to eat a snowball, but was a little less enthusiastic about the results.
In other ready-for-it-to-be-over news, I have 5 weeks left until little Kern #2 is due to show up. Which means she could show up (early) any time soon. I've definitely gotten to that stage of pregnancy where all the shine has come off - my hip joints hurt, I feel slow and out of breath alot, I'm always tired regardless of how many hours I sleep (when I can comfortably sleep) and I'm just ready for this to be over. Seriously, are we there yet? Medically, everything is going quite well - blood pressure, blood sugar, weight gain, belly measurement, all on track. And thank God, no ridiculous itchy rash on my arms and legs like I had with Leo. Just a weariness undoubtedly augmented by the daily demands of a toddler.....
