And Yet Again!

SnOw aGaIn! In Kendall's seventeen months of life, this is her third snowfall. Who woulda thunk it?! It snowed all night, and flakes were falling at 7am when we first looked outside with the morning sun. And as I type at 1pm, it's finally subsiding.



I did a scientifically sound measurement in the front yard, and here's what I have recorded:
Here's a view from our front porch...
...and back porch...

About mid-morning we all suited up for a trip out doors. Kendall's about ready.

There's no stopping this busy toddler. Well, nothing except Mommy swooping her up to get her coat on. But other than that, nothing stops this busy little bugger.

She really enjoyed the snow. She kept looking up to see it falling. And her squals were so funny! It's so neat to watch such child-like wonder.

And another nice surprise was that Daddy stayed home from work to play with us. (Notice that, thanks to Nana, Kendall has mittens this time. Poor thing nearly got frostbite last December since Mommy didn't have any mittens for her.)

Mommy and Kendall...

And Sophie, too! She had a blast running around the yard chasing the snowballs Gabe threw for her. Notice the snow is up to her armpits.

After snowball throw and catch, Daddy and Sophie decided to build a snowman. Sorta.

Kendall supervised. Somehow she knew the plan was not working well.

Even a toddler realized this poor snowman needed some help. Poor, pathetic little snowman. And just think, Daddy has a law degree. Guess it takes a different kind of talent to build a decent snowman. But the point was everybody had a blast.
And I just can't help but ending with a big, WHO DAT to the Saints. Seriously, did you think I would leave them unmentioned?? My feet are almost back on the ground. Almost. Record snowfall and a Super Bowl win all in one week. Now, who really would have thought DAT!

Gabe and I have realized that Kendall is definitely growing up in a different world than her parents. She's seen three snowfalls, a black president and the Saints win the Super Bowl all in a span of fourteen months. DATS incredible!
