A Week of SNOW, SICKNESS & IPhone Pictures:)

Hi my friends! I have missed everyone!
We got about 15 inches of snow last week and another 6-7 today!!
We have been snowed in and sick!

This is what we have been up too and our week in IPhone pictures!!

Cate had the stomach bug on Sunday and Monday! I kept saying to her, "Poor Girl," and then she started saying it and she looked so sad:( Poor Girl!
She did a lot of sleeping on her Daddy while she was sick!I am surprised he didn't get it!



We decided to head to my parents house on Monday night. In case we got a lot of snow! It was a HUGE blessing we were there because I got the stomach bug early Tuesday morning and Ryan messed up his back Wednesday! My parents and sister did such a great job taking care of our little Caters!! Thanks Guys!!!

I finally got out of bed on Wednesday! I missed seeing all the beautiful snow falling! I felt kind of cheated out of my snow day! I was going to bake, craft and cook:( Boo Hisssssss!

Cate finally got dressed on Wednesday! Well she got dressed for the day at 530 PM:) Ha!




Thursday it was an all day PJ day and I think Cate was getting CABIN FEVER! I was still under the weather and laid on the couch all day!! Yay Me!







Snuggling with her baby:)



We ran out of fun indoor stuff to do! So we made a fun game up... Measuring how tall Cate is:)





Saturday we finally made it home and went and played with some friends at my sister and brother in laws house! Cate was so excited to play with Jackson, Leighton, Grant & Evan!!

Cate LOVES Jackson:) Here are the two of them together :)

Jackson's Mom Lindsay has a blog too:) Check it out:)




Cate and Daddy were WORN out Saturday night!



Sunday was the first day I felt 100%!! So I hit the road! I went to Target and got our grocery shopping done and even picked myself up a bathing suit for Mexico:) We are going in March!



Since I didn't get to bake the week before, I baked some rolo cookies for a little Super Bowl get together!
The cookies are AMAZING!!!




Cate's Daddy got her dressed for the day! Good job Daddy!
He sent me a text while I was a the store that said, "I'm all dressed and Daddy even put a bow in my hair!"
This picture was in the Text:)



Cate had so much playing with Leighton, Jackson, Grant and Evan during the Super Bowl:) Two nights of hanging out in a row!

Enjoying some milk in Leighton's wagon:) Ha



Cate and her cousin Evan




Miss Leighton :)



Mr Jackson:)



Cate's Cousin Grant:)



Last night and today it snowed another 6-8 inches of SNOW! Wowzer! So we have just been relaxing and making cake balls:)

Cate's Gammie spent the night and they have been doing a lot of reading! Cate loves sitting in her dolly's mini chair! It's quite hilarious!



Cate loves to just kick back and enjoy her mornings;)



Making Cake Balls

Next time we experience a natural disaster (ha!) and we both hide out at our parents house we need to communicate better! It would have been fun to see yall! :)

I love your blog, Emily! Cate is getting so big, she's adorable. Also, those rolo cookies look pretty bomb, (thanks for sharing the recipe) and I LOOOOVE making cake balls too. I cannot believe how much SNOW Tulsa has gotten! My mom keeps sending me picture texts. I bet it's insanity!

Kaitlin said...

Cate looks hilarious in that ski vest! So glad we got to hang out so much last weekend :) And, those rollo cookies were freaking amazing. I'm going to need to get that recipe, though I don't need it for a while or my hips and thighs will be sorry! (Btw, that picture of L is precisely why I beg her to leave her bows in- she needs them!!)

Lindsay said...

Love the pics - sorry about the sickness though - that's NOT fun. I dont remember the last time Addie slept on anyone's chest. I guess if she ever does I KNOW she's sick!

Oh - and they sleep the same way - with their butts in the air. LOL.

Glad you are feeling better.

Paige said...

I am so glad to see that you guys are feeling better! Cate is growing like a weed! I cannot believe how big she has gotten to be! The little picture of her kicked back in her chair, is so cute! Lol!

Sonya said...

Glad you are all feeling better! Cute just gets more and more adorable!

Perfectly Imperfect said...

I'm glad you guys are finally feeling better!

That picture of Cate kicked back in her chair is awesome! She looks like such a funny girl!

Lil' Woman said...

Glad everyone feels better and mmmmm....cake balls! I love those!

Callie said...

Ok no more baking! Everytime I see your pics, I feel the need to also! :) Glad Cate is better...sick kids are the worst, especially when you're snowed in as well!

Your cake balls looks so good! Much prettier than mine ever turn out. Love the new bikini!

Ella's Mom said...

How did your cake balls come up - they look super yummy! The photo of Cate sleeping on her Dad is so precious. AND - I love the suit you got at Target. Your Target always seems to have such great stuff - I can never find anything at mine.

Emily! If I could drive my car right now, I would immediately go to the store for rolos. Those cookies look like an instant family favorite! Cate is such a doll - looks like such a sweet girl!

Shannon said...

Awww, poor baby Cate! GG was sick this past week too! Honestly it comes and goes like every few weeks, she gets this horrible cold! I'm so ready for Spring!

Mexico sounds so fun! Oh and we have the same Pottery Barn rug in one of those first pictures in our dining room!

Cate's such a cutie, glad she's feeling better! Lovin' her hair in a clippy and bow! Hugs!
