Snowpocalypse........

We are having a ton of snow lately.  This is why I don't recommend getting pregnant in the spring...you take the chance of having a blizzard baby.  Don't laugh, Palmer was a blizzard baby.  By the time we got to the hospital, had Palmer, then left the hospital Wed thru Friday, they had closed I-35 and we had to spend the night at a hotel in Ames with a brand new baby that had just been circumsized.  My hormones were through the roof and I had a collicky baby, in a hotel room, with brand new parents who did not know what the hell they were doing....yes I cried most of the night.  We came home on a Saturday to snow drifts in the ditch that were at least 18 feet tall...not joking.  I felt like we were being swallowed by a snow tunnel all the way home.  And yes I cried all the way home as Palmer hated his car seat (and never got over that as a baby) and screamed all the way home.  But I had such good friends and neighbors who cleaned my house and my driveway out and got it all ready for us when we came home.....yes, that's the silver lining.  But stay away from your spouses in the Spring.....if you don't want  a Blizzard Baby.
