Settling In




Kids are on Christmas break this week so Hailey's been home and my niece Michaela has stayed with us since Saturday.  It's been a lot of fun to have 3 teenage girls in the house! When Hailey returned from her family visit Natasha ran right to her screeching "Haaiilleeeyy" and gave her the biggest hug!

We're definitely seeing more of the transition/moody teen issues from Natasha now.  I let the girls have the computer in their room at night while Michaela's here (usually we're a fairly tech free household). Apparently Natasha decided to take advantage and stay up until 5:30 am the last 2 nights while spending time on VK (European Facebook).  That resulted in an overtired, sulky teenager for most of the time.  So tonight we will be going back to tech-free!




On Sunday we took a trip to a petting farm, Natasha had fun with the donkey & jumping on the haybales. Yesterday was a snow day spent watching movies until the power went out.

We did go ice-skating with everyone again today and they all loved it. Natasha spent most of the time taking selfies on the ice but I think she got some skating in. I just looked at her phone and she has 317 pictures on it (that's in 10 days)!  Welcome to the life of a teenager...
