Pack Attack?

As we prepare to cheer for the Packers this weekend in their first playoff game, I'm kind of curious to know if there's a point at which the NFL calls uncle.  I know games are delayed if there's lightening, but what if the wind chill is -50?  That's really not safe and as much as I love a good cold weather game, it makes me nervous.  What if they get frostbite?  We all know that Green Bay fans are the most bad-ass of all but when I read this advisory on the Weather Channel's website, I got really curious about the regulations:

* BITTERLY COLD AIR WILL SURGE INTO THE AREA STARTING SATURDAY AFTERNOON. THE COMBINATION OF COLD AND WIND WILL DRIVE WIND CHILL INDICES INTO THE 20 BELOW TO 35 BELOW ZERO RANGE SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY. WIND CHILLS IN THIS RANGE INDICATE THAT FROSTBITE TO EXPOSED SKIN CAN OCCUR IN 20 TO 30 MINUTES.

 Is there somewhere that says when it's too cold to play?  Either way, hoping the fans and teams are safe this weekend.  Los Porchs will be screaming at the tv in support of the Pack!

2013 NFC North Division Champs!!    The Green Bay Packers!!!     12/29/13     Go Pack Go!!!!
Take THAT, Bears fans!  ;)

PACK ATTACK!

Charlotte {9 months}

Let's just put this out there, we picked Charlotte before Charlotte was a princess.  ;)  And I'm not sure that the royal baby will ever be called Charlie or Charlie Bug and I'm even more certain that I don't care what they named their kid.  It's just about to be an amazingly popular baby name and we were TOTES ahead of that trend. Charlotte is 9 months old already! Stats Weight:  20 lbs, 12 oz (86.13 %ile) Length:  29.75 inches (98.75 %ile) Head circumference:  18.23 inches (96.69 %ile) This girl is perfect.  She is proportional and amazingly squishy. Teeth:  still just the 2 lower, but I'm confident she'll have a few top teeth soon.  She's been a drool machine lately and everything is back to being in her mouth. Charlotte likes... ... walking around the house (holding mama and daddy's fingers) ... Army crawling, especially when she can pull on the high pile carpet in her room ... those Gerber wheel treat things ... bath time ...

Charlotte's birth story

Thank goodness this isn't my 40 week update; I was really nervous that I'd have to write one of those and even possibly the dreaded 41 week update!  Today was her due date, but we got to meet her just a little early.  Charlotte Esther joined our family at 2:07am on Friday, August 8th... and changed our lives forever.  There's now a squishy baby who calls for us and loves nothing more than snuggling on our chests.  We are, in fact, living the dream.  A dream 4 years in the making and worth every moment.  My heart is so full of love for Charlotte and I am so excited to see how she grows and changes. I have always enjoyed reading the birth stories of my blogger friends' babies and felt it gave me hope as it was the final moment in the battle against infertility, the crossing of a finish line.  So today, in celebration of love and this chubby cheeked baby girl, I share with you the story of Charlotte's birth.

Momma K

It's true.  I love my mom.  She's my best source of advice & wisdom, even though it took me roughly 20 years to figure that out.  I just wanted to take a quick second and thank her for all that she's done for me and especially for the things she didn't do for me.  =)  I wouldn't be the person I am today without her. Love you mom! We're pretty fabulous, no?
