Snow!

Zoey was sooo excited to wake up to snow on the ground the other day.  At 7:30am she comes bounding in to our room, doing this little dance, and chanting "Snow!  Snow!  Snow!  Mommy let's go outside in the snow!  Can I go play in the snow?".  We told her she could go play after everyone got up and ate breakfast and I swear between 7:30 and 9:30 she must have asked a million times if it was time to go outside and play in the snow yet.

Of course it was after 10:00 until we actually got out there, due to the ridiculous effort it takes to get two toddlers into snow pants, snow boots, jackets, scarves, hats, and gloves.  WHY does no one make snow boots that aren't completely impossible to get on an 18-month old?  I was literally rolling on the floor with Finn trying to force these stupid boots on.  And don't even get me started on gloves and mittens.

But we finally got everyone bundled up and the kids really had a great time crawling in it, rolling in it, playing in it, and eating it.
