Although it was late in the year, Daniel got to have his first experience with a New England winter today. After surviving the ordeal of getting dressed...
We headed out and....
He loved it!!
Looks like we have two snow bunnies on our hands now!
Is it just me, or is it typical mom-style to get all excited for the kids to have an opportunity to play in the snow - then once you get outside, you remember that Mama hates the snow & cold?!
I love the second picture - he just looks so in awe of the adventure out! We are still waiting for our snow...I'm in central Minnesota and we got a dusting the other day - but still not enough to cover the grass. New Years Eve/Day we got a few inches so the kids (3 1/2 & 4 1/2) got to try out their sleds and fort-block builders that Santa brought...but it started melting the next day and was completely vanished with in a few days. The week before last the kids and I (including my daycare kiddos) had a snack 'picnic' outside (it was about 50 degrees) and last Sunday I cleaned up my front gardens that I never got to in the fall... There is something wrong with being able to have outdoor picnics and garden in MN in January :-)
I'm a Boston area stay at home mom with three children, a ridiculous planner, and a lover of all the finer things in life (mainly Diet Pepsi, peanut butter cups, and white wine).
So cute!

Ha - I could not get inside fast enough! After about 15 minutes I was DONE!
