This is a picture of my two granddaughters, Madison (age 3 1/2) and Ella (age 2 1/2), taken shortly before Christmas. Those are our excited faces! We are waiting.... and waiting.... and waiting for two new little babies. Madison is waiting for a little brother who is expected to arrive any day (official due date of Feb. 7th). Ella is waiting for either a little sister or brother who is expected to arrive on April 4th.
Winter in central Illinois has seemed especially cold, windy, snowy and icy so far. I've had my share of cold weather outside runs. I did a 4-mile run on Jan. 15th in 7" of new snow, -7 degree air temperature, with -31 degree wind chill. This past Saturday was an 11-mile run with an air temperature of 2 degrees and wind chill of -17. Enough. I'm ready to stay inside an cuddle a new baby! New babies have a way of warming your heart even if it is still winter in Illinois.
So.... Maddox and Baby Gummerman (wait about 8 weeks), Grandma is waiting and ready for both of you to get here.

I was hoping there would be baby news today! :) You are much tougher than I. I had to call someone to run with me when it was -10 and sunny. Hopefully the new baby brother gets here soon!
