Snow!

Finally! I am such a snow person, I've been praying for this day since the last snow in MA, which was pretty much on Halloween in 2011!  Well, maybe an inch here and there, but not what a life long New Englander expects.  So, after hearing that I was going to be able to stay in my jammies all day, snuggled in with my Littles while it snowed, then bundle up the next day and roll around in the snow made me really, really happy!  

And that's what we did!  Mark wasn't around (working, blah!) so I went to my parents. They have a hill, which you kind of need to sled, and snowmobiles, so it was a no brainer.  It didn't hurt having some extra hands around to tag team the playing, since not everyone (Avery) loves being out in the cold weather for long and having one mommy at the top to push the sledder and one mommy at the bottom to catch the same sledder isn't really possible!  

The kids had a ton of fun!  Cam was out forever, it seemed.  He definitely appreciated the cocoa and shortbread cookies Mimi had waiting for him when he came in!  We most definitely have a little boy who will love all the New England winter fun that most of us grow up with: sledding, snow men, skating, just over all being cold!  Avery needs a little time, but she'll come around.  She just still likes to be warm :)

See?

Avery watched from the window :)
Sledding. It is a hill, I swear!
Isn't she adorable?
