We have had a lot of snowy days lately. Unlike my big kids, usually my youngest stays in the house. She has a circulatory system that causes her to quickly prioritize her blood-flow away from her limbs, and learned the words “Cold, COLD” very quickly. This past week we had a nice warm day, so we bundled up baby and took her out for some fun in the sun … snow… hmm … sunny snow… which sounds like an oxymoron but isn’t. There should be a better word for this.
Obviously, she thought this was a perfect time for a photo shoot:
She was all smiles at finally getting to play outside with her brother and sister.
Of course she needed to taste the fluffy stuff.
It’s not as good as it looks.
The fun lasted for quite a while until she decided that she was tired. Off came the mittens so that she could suck her thumb. Off came the hat so that she could twirl her hair. 10 seconds of contented baby bliss then “Wahhhhh!!!!”

I’m off to google Inuit snow words because that will be a very productive use of my time this morning. Really. Self education. It’s a good thing. I’m not procrastinating. Really. Really!
Sunny Snow
I can hear her now. I did it..I did it ….I'm in the snow!!! She is so adorable. I bet big brother and sister enjoyed her also.
