The kids had an early out yesterday and a snow day today. The wind is blowing and the house is cold.

We have been cooking all morning. We made sausage and cinnamon rolls for breakfast, spaghetti for lunch, a roast for supper and Steve is working on dorowat for an Ethiopian Christmas party on Saturday. The house smells delicious.

Emma and I took down Megan’s crib this morning. She hasn’t been sleeping in it for awhile, but it still occupied some space in her room and was the repository for many stuffed animals, toys and blankets.  I am now deciding whether to keep the crib for grandkids, or to get rid of it. Steve says keep it. There is plenty of room in the attic for storage. Emma says to get rid of it. The grandkids can sleep in the big beds. Hmmmm. I think I’ll blog while I decide.

I finished a new hairstyle for Megan yesterday. The poor kiddo is so tenderheaded. I am sorry for her. I started taking out her little braids on Sunday. I gave her a hot oil treatment and did most of the detangling on Monday. I detangled and braided again last night. This morning she asked me to take out one of her braids because it was in too tight and was pulling at her head. I’ve got it out, but not in again. This is the everlasting hair-do.

Her last set of braids lasted from Thanksgiving weekend until today. I hope these last half as long.

Time to decide what to do with that crib…..hmmmm! They certainly do grow up fast. This week she is out of the crib, and next week she’ll probably need her own apartment.

Pretty soon all of the stuff I am saving for sometime or somebody is going to crowd me out of my house.
