let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

it finally snowed! and it snowed a lot too as i heard we got over eight inches! i was beginning to get worried since halloween came and went without a trace of snow and thanksgiving too. but finally ... i love the snow! :) i wish it snowed more here actually. i think we should move to monument, co where they get all the snow storms but when i suggested it to mason, he just laughed. i'll have to work on him. anyway...

i took anders out in the snow to see what he would think. i haven't been able to find snow pants for him yet so i put on a pair of lined pants that are 24 mo. and that seemed to work just fine. of course we were only outside for 90 seconds or so....

here's a pre-snow pic. (erica and cheramie, how do you get your little guys to smile for the camera? this is all i get... oh well.)


he was doing fine here... just curious about all the white stuff. i lost his mittens in washington d.c. so i didn't have anything for his hands and i felt bad. i need to get some more for him soon and i was hoping to find a pair of boots also.

and this is where he lost it. he wanted to crawl in it but couldn't manuver between his bulky coat and all the snow and then i think he realized that his fingers were freezing and that was it. it took a couple of minutes for him to calm down. then he wanted to go back outside again!
i want to take him sledding over the christmas holiday (assuming there will be snow) so hopefully that experience with snow will go better.

I love the cute baby marshmallow coat! Andrew looks so cute all bundled up. I need to get warmer stuff for Nick so we can enjoy the snow too - I wish I had as good an attitude about it as you do.
