The Chef family has had a few lazy days lately. My belly is getting bigger and frankly, I'm just getting plain miserable. I'm probably one of the worst pregnant ladies during the last few weeks ...
Miss A and I were dancing around the kitchen to her radio and cd's and then she just wanted to me lazy. She sat down, pulled over a stool and listened to her kids music while sitting.
Why do toddlers always wear sunglasses upside down? Or, how is it that they always put their shoes on the wrong feet. Here's Miss A sporting her "Sparty" gear and wearing a pair of sunglasses, upside down, of course. And, eating celery and peanut butter, a new favorite snack of hers to eat.
We took several good months off dance classes. Life was just too busy, vacations were planned and I just couldn't squeeze in another planned activity. Apparently at 37-weeks along in my pregnancy I decided it was a good idea to pick up dance again. ha! However, Miss A loves it and I love watching her dance around with the other littel girls. Plus, with all the rain we've been getting lately, it gives her a chance to move around and get some of her wiggles out!
The Iron Chef was out of town this week near Truckee. I know we just posted pictures of "snow" but here's a picture of SNOW! This was along the side of the highway and it's not even an area with the most snow.
The Iron Chef said the snow was higher than his Ford Explorer. At least the CA Dept of Transportation has done well clearing the roads. :)
During our week of "vacation" we headed to Tahoe (actually the outskirts, but this gives you an idea of location) for some snow! Miss A doesn't get the snow in her backyard like the Iron Chef and I had growing up, so we have to drive to it! She loved every single minute in the snow and definitely didn't want to leave. She slept the entire drive home, too!
Parts near Donner Pass (near Truckee, NV) have about 17 ft of snow (according to my dad), so as you can imagine, these pictures with knee deep snow truly don't do justice on how much snow the Sierras have received this year. But, they give you an idea to how much fun Miss A had in the snow.
Life is crazy for the "Chef"ler family. We love our little family of four and are enjoying our time in the California. We love the sunshine and the beautiful blue sky. In our free time we love traveling and spending time with family & friends. From our family to yours - welcome, welcome, welcome.

The littlest mess maker
Although not too little anymore, she's definitely the littlest of the bunch on both sides of our family. Our cupcake, cutie -- our crazy, cheeseball -- our curious, child. Yes, that's Ms. Ava. Fascinated by the littlest of things and exploring her world keeps our toddler one busy little bee. She loves playing with other little kids and has taken an extreme liking to baby dolls.
