It's actually been switching between rain and snow all morning. At this rate, it would take a LONG time to start sticking. TGIF!
Update at 1130am: Rain. Poo. It had just started to stick.

house of sicklings
Danny is slowly getting over his nasty cold. He's had it nearly 2 weeks now. Melanie have managed to escape the worst of it. She got a small cough after being with the "big kids" all day. Now I think she has a bacterial infection in her eye. I didn't run to the doctor right away, but I figured it's better for her to see him considering her age. We have an appointment for 9 tomorrow. I'm guessing that she'll probably get antibiotic eye drops. We're taking good care of them for today though.
UPDATE: The doctor says she doesn't have pink eye. Her nose is stuffy way up inside and he says the gunk in her eye is likely the stuff from her nose working it's way out. Ew! She has saline drops for her nose to help clear her up. She'll be getting a little Tylenol too.

Flickr
FYI- I have created a flickr account and am contemplating moving everything from Photobucket over there. It is just about usability for me. I'll keep you updated on changes.
UPDATE: I added about 15 pictures from iPhoto and exceeded my bandwidth limit for the month. Luckily Feb is short so it will be reset in a few days.

Big Favor
Can someone please buy Melanie some long-sleeve onesies and send them to us? I keep looking in the Exchange, but they never have her size.
She needs 3-6 month size, white, and preferably Carter's brand, but any will do. She only needs one pack (5).
Thank you!

Happy Baby
So many people have said this before, but Melanie is such a happy baby. She even smiles in her sleep. It is cute!

Mt Asama erupts
I didn't know about this until a friend of Danny told us. I noticed "dust" on the car today, but didn't realize it was ash.
TOKYO, Feb 2 (Reuters) - A volcano in central Japan erupted on Monday, spewing hot rocks and ash, but there was no major damage in the sparsely populated vicinity, the Japan Meteorological Agency said.
NHK public TV showed white smoke coming out of the 2,568 metre (8,425 foot), snow-capped peak, with some grey dust near the top.
Smoke shot up as high as 2 km (1 mile) from the crater of Mount Asama, which erupted at 1:51 a.m. (1651 GMT Sunday), but no lava could be seen from the side of the volcano, said Kazuya Kokubo, an official at the agency.
The agency had raised its warning level on Sunday after signs of increased seismic activity, telling people not to approach the volcano and agency official Osamu Inaba said traffic in the area was being restricted.
Ash drifted as far as Tokyo, about 140 km (90 miles) to the southeast, but visibility in the capital was not affected.
The agency is keeping its warning level at three out of five, which warns people not to approach the volcano.
Residents in cities and villages nearby have also been warned against flying rocks and ash, Inaba said.
No one lives within a 4 km area around the volcano, but people working in the vicinity were told on Sunday to evacuate, Kokubo said.
Mount Asama, one of Japan's more active volcanoes, had its biggest eruption in 21 years on Sept. 1 2004, spewing hot rock and raining ash as far as 200 km away. That eruption, however, did not cause any major damage.
The volcano is known for a huge eruption in 1783 that caused widespread damage and killed around 1,500 people. (Reporting by Yoko Kubota; Editing by Brent Kininmont)
