Snow day

Last night before I put James down, it had started to snow a bit.  Just a few minutes after the first flakes fell, our deck looked like this.  We were excited to wake up and have a snow day this morning!

We woke up and enjoyed breakfast: the snow baby chose O's and banana (not cozy at all...) and mama and dad had oatmeal.  (Photos below for the foodies.)

We got dressed and ready to go play outside!

At first, James was just confused about why we were so excited to sit him outside and watch him.  Then he noticed the snow and found it a little interesting.  He mostly just thought it was cold in the end.

James impressed us by standing unsupported for several seconds (10 or 15?), which he has never done before!  We think it may have had something to do with how stiff he was in all of his layers...  But, proud and impressed with our boy, nonetheless.

James didn't last long outside - or maybe it was Stuart... he also doesn't like to be cold ;)  Either way, after snow play, we hung out in front of the fire before both boys went down for their naps (James because he's a little babe, and Stuart because he had worked all night!).

Which means that I got to enjoy this on my own for a bit in the peace and quiet of this snowy morning!  Thankful.
