Snow Days!

The past two weeks have been... long but the Surratts are on the mend! Kyle is fully recovered from his surgery and eating us out of house and home! It appears that now that he can swallow, he wants to try any and all food near him! Kyle had two solid weeks of snuggles and LOTs of mama, but the doc said we can go back to "tough love", which means sleeping though the night:-)

Riley and Tracy are both fully recovered from a 24 bug. Unfortunately, we discovered that Riley initially had the bug when she threw up all over the lobby of Romp-n-roll after arriving for a friends birthday party! We know how to make an entrance!! Needless to say, we didn't stay for the party and spent the afternoon reading and watching movies. At one point Tracy turned off the TV to read and Riley said "but Mama, I threw up, I GET to watch movies!" How does she know those are the rules??

Grandma and Papa came to town on their way to Florida and Lexa stayed the night with us that night as well! The kids had a great time being spoiled by all the grandparents and having a fun sleep over! We also celebrated Erics birthday last week! We had a couple really great dinners with the family! Happy Birthday Daddy!!

The girls are still loving dance and each other! We were all in the car the other day and Riley was staring at Lexa after the end of a conversation so Lexa asked why she was looking at her. Riley's response was "Because I love you!"



And of course, lets not forget our wonderful SNOW! 8 inches (and even more with drifts!) This is the first decent amount of snow the kids have ever been in!Riley has had a blast playing in the snow and as expected, she LOVES to sled! Kyle on the other hand hasn't been very happy in the snow but he has time!

Kyle isn't loving the snow as much as his sister! Ok, he started to have some fun on the Lamberts driveway - with mama!
