It doesn't snow in Kansas, well it hasn't snowed more than two inches at a time since I've been here. Until this winter. We better take advantage of it...what if it doesn't snow again for another 2-3 years?
It's a little tricky with Lydia, I don't think she does snow so I play out with Oliver when Jim happens to be home, which is not very often. Other times I let him play outside when Lydia is sleeping so I can play a little with him and keep popping into the house to make sure she is okay.
Yesterday we spray painted some snow.
-food coloring
-water
-spray bottles

| shoveling with daddy We are getting another 8-15 inches of snow this afternoon/evening/tomorrow. Hopefully we can get some fun sledding and snowman building in. Then on Thursday the babes and I are road tripping to Texas. Hello mid 50s, hello IKEA. |
Wow, I can't believe all the snow you got. But it looks like you made good use of an unpleasant weather event (at least that's how I view snow), and Oliver had a great time.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love your "poop" story. There's something about being the mom of a couple of "little people" that removes all sense of propriety, isn't there?
