Snow Day!!

Just when we think Spring is just around the corner...

Blizzard conditions have brought the Fargo-Moorhead area to a standstill, closing businesses, schools and government offices and forcing the city of Fargo to close one of its main east-west thoroughfares.

Josh, Joey and I, along with the rest of the FM area, were stranded at home today. While Josh worked from his laptop, Joey and I had a fun filled day of coloring, playing cars, pretending to be dinosaurs and watching cartoons (Wonder Pets is a new favorite in our house). Joey is becoming quite the talker lately. He's getting a lot easier to understand and even talks in short sentences. It feels like it all happened overnight. He also has a weird new laugh... we're not sure where it came from but it's like he makes his voice really low and then lets out a big belly laugh. He's quite the character. I assure you, the days are never dull around the Belzer home!

Will someone PLEASE play with me?

Joey's new favorite food... apples.

Isn't this the cutest picture? Joey's always been pretty attached to his monkey but lately he has to have it with him at all times and treats it like a baby. The other night he was sitting in his bed, reading his monkey a story and then he tucked him in under his covers and told me his monkey went "night-night." He is such a sweet little boy... when he wants to be. : )

Last minute Christmas shopping can be exhausting...

The kids LOVED playing with the dogs at Aunt Lori's house... Joey followed Abby (the bigger dog) everywhere she went.

Ho Ho Ho!

Look who we ran into today...

Joey's going through a "scared of everything" stage so I wasn't sure how he'd react to Santa coming up to him but he handled it better than I expected. I think it helped that Santa was handing out candy.
