A Snow Day

I knew the last week or so was too good to be true. The sidewalks were clear, grass (although gross looking) was poking through the snow, walks were taken, the backyard was explored and a small glimmer of hope that an early spring was coming consumed my thoughts.

But today we woke up to more snow - both on the ground and falling from the sky. Harrison climbed up on his look-out chair in the living room - his hopes dashed of another day outside. He just kept saying "snowing.... snowing......cold......cold."






So we tried to keep busy doing other things........we played with animal magnets on the fridge which he transferred from fridge to the salad spinner and back about 100 times........we watched a little Mickey Mouse...which he tired of in about 5 minutes........


He played with his beloved fire truck and he demonstrated his brave climbing and balancing abilities.....



He dumped the sea creatures from his Cubs bucket and proudly wore it as a hat most of the morning (including through snack time)...........



And stayed in our pajamas until 2pm. Loved it - but I will love my days even more when we can leave the house!

What a cutie. And I want to know- where did you get those cute pj's? (Having just been pj shopping- everything for boys is so ugly, generally!)
