Snow

Can anyone guess when this winter wonderland day of snow was??? My three little snow bunnies!
Max couldn't decide if he wanted the snow, or his binki in his mouth. This time he got a handful of both without knowing and the binki got put in backward. Funny kid.He looked like a baby polar bear in his white snowsuit, crawling through the snow.
Peter just wanted to stand aroung and eat handfuls of snow.
Shophie made countless snow angels, and was surprised that when she got up that there was grass under the snow. She could have stayed out all morning, but came in when the rest of us did because she didn't want to play outside by herself.
Did you guess? It was this morning. We woke up to a couple of inches of real winter snow. I thought that if we were going to play in it it had to be right away, because I'm thinking and hoping that it will all be melted by this afternoon. So, right after breakfast, still in jammies, we geared up and went out. We were waiting on Pete. It turns out that at the last minute he decided to change into clothes. No socks. And we could only find one of his winter boots. So he ended up outside in fun winter gear, but with bare feet and running shoes!! So it was no wonder that he didn't want to sit or lay or really play in the snow this morning. But he said he still had fun. I realized that through the winter when the kids would play in the snow that I had always kept Max inside. Poor boy hasn't played in snow - ever! He had his first (and last till next year) taste of the fun white stuff. It's almost April. There is something wrong about waking up on a spring morning to snow!!!
