Let it Snow Let it Snow Let it Snow!

As was predicted, it snowed today. It started snowing sometime between 2:00 - 5:30 am and as of 10:45 am, it is still coming down. So far it appears to be around 4 -5 inches. Lillian thought the snow was silly because it was on the cars and bushes. She said she wanted to go out in but she did not care for the preparation to go out. I had left her boots on the back porch so they were covered in snow so to keep her feet dry, we put plastic storage bags over her socks. This did not please Lillian. But once we were all bundled up we headed outside.

Lillian ran right into the snow and made snow angels, shoveled snow and even went on her play set. She started to get cold and then just sat in the snow and said that she was cold and was not going to have any fun. She just wanted to go inside and eat snow cream. So we trudged back in the house (after only 20 minutes in the snow). I don't think she will be moving up north when she is an adult. She was fussing about being cold so we put her in a warm bath. After her bath she got to put on some warm clothes straight from the dryer so they were nice and warm. Daddy was already making the snow cream and Lillian jumped in to help. Needless to say I think the snow cream was her favorite part of the snow! We are going to try and take her back out in the afternoon.
