SNOW

 One happy Buggy!
 "Look out Mom!"
 "Snow!"



 A snow pie

 Kellen's first snow...he was very curious!

 The bigs tried to make snow angels, and got all muddy!











 Look at all that snow!
 Our dirty snowman!  

 After these pictures the littles went inside, and the older two ran around until the lightning siren started going off!  Bubba filled a gallon bag full of snow for the freezer!

It was an unexpected surprise!  After flurries that did not stick that morning, we thought that was it for the day!  However, later in the afternoon it started snowing again.  We had the kids run outside, thinking that it wasn't going to stick around long...we were wrong!  The big kids got to play outside for a while, the littles didn't last quite as long!  They actually were able to go out the next morning before church too!  (And with the proper clothing on!)

Visiting China...sort of!











Aidan had a global celebration at school a couple weeks ago.  They studied Germany, Kenya, and China.  Aidan's classroom was China, and they taught all the parents everything they learned!  Bubba loved sharing his knowledge with everyone!

If All the SNOWFLAKES...

 I'd stand outside with my mouth open wide....
 AAAHHH...AAHHHH...











We had to take advantage of what we are given!  Although it has no chance of sticking, we actually had snowflakes this morning!   Don't mind the messy faces, we had just finished having some Saturday morning cinnamon rolls!  

Feeling Better!


 My little baby isn't so little anymore!
 MaeMae was testing her lungs...they seem to be better!
Everyone is feeling a bit better these days!  Happy Valentine's Day from the Schirra's!

Making Music

Little Miss MaeMae is very interested in her brother's violin.  I have to give her credit, she was very creative in making her own "violin"~!  Since she attends Bubba's lessons with us, she already knows all the different rhythms!

Sickies...

It's been a LONG three weeks.  Everyone has had some sort of illness, many times overlapping each other.  To date we have filled 15 prescriptions in the last 15 days.  We have had multiple ear infections, croup, walking pneumonia, bronchitis, and the list goes on!  (The above picture is only 11 of our 15 prescriptions!)

 We've all needed lots of rest.

 And everyone but Momma and Kellen needed breathing treatments.



Here's to hoping that soon everyone will be well again.  Momma is going to need a vacation soon!
