A Snow Day

It snowed last night. Kids woke up a bit later today.. Trace at 615 am, Jaxon at 845am and Canaan at a whopping 9am!!! Very exciting for our house. Who knows what Grampa did while he babysat last night but they slept in and that is all that matters.

This morning we woke up to... "wooook mommy snow!!!!" All three were very excited. So I got ambitious and dug out three pairs of snow pants, 3 warm jackets, 3 pairs of gloves and 3 pairs of boots. Jaxon was the total trouper, no tears as we shoved him into all this gear, Canaan although screaming the whole time was also successful in getting dressed. Trace, no go... so we left him inside to watch us from the windows. Which he did with this VERY sad look on his face. Jaxon and Canaan loved the snow, stomping through it and making the karate chop hiiiiiyaaaa sound whenever they threw a snowball.

After a few minutes I came inside and asked Trace if he wanted to get dressed and he did. After he finally made it outside he proceeded to throw snowballs, karate chop the snowman and make snow angels! I have to say watching them play was well worth the pain in the butt of bundling them all up.

Now we are all inside, Thomas is playing lunch will be made soon followed by my favourite time of day.. NAPS. Everybody needs to get rest, who knows what is in store for this afternoon. Jaxon has already been playing the pants game....
