Within a week 2 separate Nor’easters have come through Bernardsville! Last week was mostly rain and really high winds that took down a lot of trees and knocked out power for large percentage of town. We were among the lucky in town who never lost power but others were less fortunate and were out for 5+ days. Today’s storm brought snow- and a lot of it! It’s still precipitating but I bet there’s at least a foot, but likely 18 inches of really wet, heavy white stuff.
Andy’s out in CA so it was just me, the kiddos and mother nature. So what did we do to pass the time?!? Andrew and I made paths and played in the snow early in the day while Teddy napped. I thought our shoveling would help later on. Boy was I wrong. Talk about drop in the bucket. But we enjoyed some Mommy-Andrew time nonetheless! 
We baked cupcakes for Daddy’s birthday! Andrew is getting really into cooking and baking.I love that he’s able to ‘read’ and understand recipes. As you can see, we’re still perfecting our skills. 
Teddy and Mommy played in the basement while Andrew napped. Teddy was a brave boy and tried something for the very first time!
As the snow piled up Mommy started to get nervous that she’d be trapped in the house. I tried to shovel a bit but realized that I was NO match for at least a foot of heavy wet snow and driveway that seemed 17 miles long and the size of a football field. 
So…. we called a plow and returned to watching movies and enjoying some quiet time with each other. But we’re ready for school to be open and Daddy to come home. Both of which I’m only mildly convinced will happen tomorrow!
