We got bombarded with snow yesterday and today. Final count = 30 inches. The snow plows haven’t even begun clearing out our neighborhood.
Because of all the snow, our power went out around 11pm last night. I woke up at 1am, freezing. My first thought was Carmen. She cannot hold her temperature so keeping her warm is very, very important. I checked with the night nurse, and she had bundled Carmen up like an Eskimo. All I could see was Carmen’s little face. I went back to bed and put Hope right next to me. You know you are cold when you pull your sleeping, warmly swaddled newborn out of her bassinet and stick her next to you, hoping she might warm you up! That tiny little body did help keep me warm.
Thankfully, the power came back on a few hours later.
Speaking of the night nurse, Salem WALKED home (about 2 miles) because there was no way to drive out of our neighborhood. God bless Salem!
Dave said he needs a chiropractic visit after all the shoveling today!
Here are some pictures from today.

Nice!
WOW! I can’t believe I’m seeing pictures like this from Maryland! I really love the snow fort!
Salem you are a SAINT! Thank you for your love and dedication to this family. I thank God for you!
I should add that Salem walked back to our house tonight! Her husband walked with her and then turned around and walked home. And I’m sure she will be walking back home tomorrow morning. Amazing.
Oh, I was waiting for these pics. Just had to see how you glorify the beauty God sends. Praise God for Salem and for restored electricity. Lauren is looking taller these days…. the Big Sister again…. God Bless you all!
Wow, amazing to see the pictures of all the snow!

What I find hard to believe is that all that snow is on your DECK!! – - Up here it would have blown off by now – - – Cannot imagine how much is on the ground – - – sure you don’t want Doug/NYGrandpa to come down with his snowblower???? – -
