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

I think Noah has seen another snow in his lifetime, but I believe this was the first one that he's been able to really go out in it, since it's not very nice to just sit a helpless infant in some snow.

By the time we went to bed last night, it was snowing pretty good--not a blizzard, but pretty decent for Greer, I think. When we woke up, all the large bushes were weighed down with snow, and yes--ice. It was raining when we got outside, but not so hard that we couldn't bundle Noah up and let him tromp around on the back porch for a bit.

(As an update--roads are clear, Patrick had no problem getting to work; we have power, satellite--so everything is good!)

After we came in, we introduced Noah to the tradition of having hot cocoa after coming in from the cold. Of course, his was more lukewarm, but he seemed to really enjoy it, as evidenced by the stains on his shirt in one of the pictures.

Enjoy the pictures!!!

Wow. It's cold out here.

What is all that white stuff?

Uh, how long are y'all going to keep me out here?

Back inside, with all my warm blankies...

Which one will I choose? Or, more importantly, which one goes better with the large hot chocolate stain on my shirt???

Hey, Mommy!

I love my ball pit...I can successfully tip it on its side now!
