Today we are in the middle of the worst blizzard I ever remember having. I cannot see across the street due to all the wind and snow. All I see it white outside. The snow is blowing sideways too, which doesn't happen very often.

They've shut down the university (which is almost unheard of), and a couple of the local malls. Jason went to work today, and so he's stuck at the University. I'm hoping he'll be able to make it home, but I'm betting it won't happen. The visibility is just too bad, and there's too many trucks jack-knifed across the road to allow buses to pass through. He's supposed to be trying to find a way home right now, but he hasn't called and I bet he won't. He'll probably try to use this as a good excuse to work late, the work-a-holic that he is.

I guess it's just gonna be me and the kid tonight. Hopefully he won't get too hungry or be too cold.

We went to Jason's family's house this past weekend. Alex had such a good time there playing with Grandma and Grandpa and her little cousin. This is the first time that she's really been aware of Madison and she followed her around like a little puppy; it was adorable!

The ride home was a bit scary as the wind and blowing snow were kind of insane, but we made it home safely.

While we were there (and we were only there for a couple of days), Alex perfected the art of crawling, started trying to balance while she was standing, started saying the word "ball" and plays patty cake. Oh yeah and she cut her front top right tooth, making it tooth #3! Quite a developmental leap for just a couple of days!
