Ernie Newbie Money Mo

Sometimes, autocorrect isn't helpful.  That was suppose to be, "eenie meenie miney mo" but when I looked up after typing it on my phone, I saw something entirely different.

That's not what today's post is about though.  Today's post is about how we got flurried in and everything cancelled due to an inch of snow.  It was a highly-anticipated inch.  There were predictions of four inches.  Public schools cancelled before a single flake fell.  Later, around six pm, flurries finally started.  

Today we played in the snow.  My son loved it and played for a long time, jumping around and laughing and having no problem whatsoever with the cold.  His sister, on the other hand, didn't enjoy it quite as much and wanted to come in after half an hour. 

But back to the, "eenie meenie miney mo" title.  Both my children can do the entire chant.  They learned it from daddy at bath time.  Some days they do the chant to determine who gets out of the bath first.  They love doing the chant; they hate getting out of the bath.

The Big Boy Update:  We were using the nasal aspirator on my daughter and she was very unhappy; okay, she was screaming.  My son associates discomfort with lotion because he's had such bad skin for so long.  He came over and told us, "let's put some lotion on her so she feels better."

The Tiny Girl Chronicles:   We're not sure if her face gets red because her skin is dry or because she's got congestion she's rubbing on her face while she's at school.  Some days her face is red, some days it's not.  We're trying to see if it correlates to runny nose days.
