Our week of snow!

Christopher was the only one that was able to do any kind of sledding this day. We tried plastic bags, the top to a storage container and I think even a card board box. Only Christophers super fluff snow suit was able to properly do the job! I would pick him up like luggage and carry him up the little hill and put him down. He would scooch his legs a little and away he would go! He loved it so much he just kept signing "more" when he'd get to the bottom of the hill.

Mr. Christopher on his way down the hill. Giggling all the while!

Another triumphant run down the hill! He was pretty bored there for a while not being able to move much in his little suit, so discovery of super slick "sledding" suit was the perfect boredom buster!

It was perfect snowman snow outside! How fun to have a whole week to play in the snow and be out of electricty for a day to boot too! It was kind of like camping indoors. We had to get pretty creative after a while with toys and activities to keep us occupied since school was out that entire week as well! It helped us see what we were low on just in case something like that happened for a while and we were really dependant on our supplies! We were definately low on batteries, candles and firewood. Otherwise, we would have lasted quite a while!

My newest Craft!

Here's my little Christopher posing for me with his Christmas bow tie on. It matches the girls Christmas dresses. I wanted to have him match the girls and Voila! A fast a easy bow tie! He looks so handsome.

And this is his debonair look.

This one was just too cute to pass up! What a little cutie patutie!

This is for my good friend who is having a little boy in April. I think she'll like them, don't you!? The middle bow has a thin strap with velcro through it to hold it on. When you want to change them, you just take one bow off and slide on another. How cute is that? Kind of like the head bands for the girls.
