Snow Days

The early part of this week we had some lovely, soft snowfall, and we've really enjoyed it since there hasn't been too much snow yet this winter. Jim has still gone for a jog and done his early morning workouts, even though he still has to go to work. When does a snow day happen for the working person??

Meanwhile the boys and I have been at home, and trying to sneak in opportunities to stomp around outside - mostly me and Timo, while Mattias is napping. Timo likes to use his little shovel to help throw snow around, and then we wander around looking for good snow caves under the bushes and inspecting all the cat paw prints in the snow. For some reason all the neighbor cats like to play in our yard.

[Of course, this IS Colorado after all: today is sunny and warmer, and the snow is melting away. So sad for the Midwestern boy, but so happy for the Southern girl.]

To get things started off, here's an ironic pic for ya. I pulled this onesie out of the drawer and discovered too late that Mattias had outgrown it already! At two months old, he is the size that Timo was at 4 months.

Now for the snow pictures!

What to do inside on a snow day? Why, play soccer!

The open door of the tee-pee was the goal.

What, me, chubby?
