LET IT SNOW...LET IT SNOW...LET IT SNOW...

Today we woke up to snow on the ground. It was a pretty exciting morning in our house given the fact that Charlotte and Jacob don't remember winter last year so this essentially is their "first" winter. They were pretty interested in the white stuff on the ground. Both kept screaming "SNOW SNOW" while looking out the doors into the backyard. 

We have spent a lot of time talking to them about snow over the past few weeks. We told them that when it snows they have to wear their hats, mitts and boots - but they were excited to wear those even without the snow on the ground. After seeing the snow through the windows they kept saying "need hats, boots and mitts....need hats, boots and mitts"

I thought this was also the perfect opportunity to introduce them to their "snow suits" since they wouldn't remember wearing those last year either. They love them and couldn't wait to put them on. 

Once outside they were intrigued with the snow but were not scared. They enjoyed walking through it and sweeping it from the patio in the backyard. We will venture to shovels eventually - baby steps into winter please....

Excited to be outside in the snow

Let's sweep...

Taking a break...sweeping is hard work

Great work J-man
