Weekend away

We went to my sister in law's this weekend since we couldn't go on New Years day because of bad weather. The kids got their Christmas gifts and the girls went to the mall to spend their gifts. We also got to see a preemie baby that was 2 months old and only 5 lbs. 12 oz. He was soooooo tiny. I got to hold him and it was amazing that he was able to leave the hospital so soon. His whole hand was the size of my hubby's thumb. His mom put him on the floor and I was soo scared someone was going to step on him b/c he is so tiny. He will probably end up 6 foot tall.:)
We had a good visit but am always glad to be back home. Especially today since,yes, we are getting more snow.Suppose to get 3 inches or so. It is very cold too but feels warmer since we are out of the negative numbers now. It is 21 right now.
Hope everyone is having a great Monday.
