we drove back to buffalo today. the kids did ok - they didn't sleep and were getting quite cranky! malloy started to fall asleep just as we were pulling onto our street! the kids were SO excited that we had some snow and were begging to go outside! neal got them all bundled up and took them out while i put the groceries away and started dinner. i got to go out and play for a bit, too! 

both malloy and rex were too tired to chew so they had yogurt for dinner. (hey, at least it was greek yogurt and packed with protein!)  they were both out cold and snoring by 6:45pm!!!
