Winter Wonderland






Speaking of snow....we decided to get right out in it tonight. It was a beautifully snowy day here in Indiana today. Everytime I looked out the window I felt like we were in one of those snow globes with the snow swirling romatically. So this evening we put all of Kaia's new snow gear on her: her new boots, snowpants, parka, hat and mittens. She didn't like the getting ready part so much. That fancy sled you see in the pictures was handmade by Grandpa Dennis for Christmas. She wasn't too fond of it in the house but once we got her moving in it outside, she loved it! A great five minutes of family fun - then we decided to get Kaia in before she got frostbite! Getting a toddler ready to go out in the cold is like waiting 45 minutes at six flags to go on a 2 minute roller coaster ride. It's a long wait but the ride is worth it.

I'm glad she has gotten to use the sled (and likes it). Your description of the dress-for-cold-weather, play-for-a-few-minutes, undress, brings back memories.
