Snow day to park day in three days...

Round one of sickness hit this past weekend and we spent 5... LONG ...days inside where I exhausted all of my creativity and art supplies! PHEW! Thankfully, we were feeling better and able to enjoy everything from the first snowfall of the season, to open gym, to the park in t-shirts ALL in one week! Another PHEW for that! The snow started falling on Monday and immediately Keira ran to her room and started putting on her gear! Boots, hat, coat, three pairs of socks... this girl LOVES the snow (like her daddy). Then there was Quinn...though we haven’t gotten his snow boots yet- mainly because I insist that they be all black to match is coat, and I am “thrifty” and won’t spend but a certain amount on them, he was not as prepared. BUT- I could tell from the minute we stepped out onto the frosty, snow covered deck, that he was NOT amused by this winter wonderland. The look I saw on his face was the exact look that I must have when “playing” in the snow. It’s the look of “Can we go in yet????? PLEASE!!!” I wonder if there is a “hater of the snow and cold” gene? If so, he’s got it and we will be toasty warm inside this winter while Daddy and K enjoy all that cold snow “fun” as they call it!
