Snow Day!

We've been really lucky so far this season with our snow accumulation.  We had the one big storm in October around Halloween of 12 inches, which the trio couldn't play in because we hadn't gotten snowsuits yet.  And we've had a couple dustings since then, but over the weekend we got 6 inches.  So on Saturday we bundled up everyone (took longer than I thought) and took them out back to try out the snow in their new snow gear!  It took a little while for them to get used to the white stuff...and I'm sure it didn't help that they couldn't move their limbs because of all the clothing they were bundled up in!


Brody and Sadie were lovin' it!


Brayden...not so sure!

Ava

Trying to figure out how to walk in it

Gavin
My mom bought some "sleds" last winter that we never got the opportunity to use until now.  All three babies ate the snow when Joe tried to pull them.  The funniest part was that they couldn't stand up when they fell because of all the clothes!

Brayden was first to try it out

Off he goes...

Joe had to help him up!

Look at that stance...looks like a snowboarder!

Gavin already wasn't so sure about it

Another man down!


Ava was lovin' it...

Notice the sled in the corner of the picture!

Both boys

...down the hill
We got a pretty cute video of Gavin going down the hill on the sled as well:


Yes, we had fun but I'm good with only going through this for one more winter!

  1. Look how happy the dogs are! Did you have any trouble with them adjusting to kids in the house? Baxter DOES NOT know what to do with kids so he has decided he should eat them!
