On Thursday night, we got our first snow of the season. This was Liam's first time to get to play in the snow. We only got a couple of inches, but it was enough for the boys to get out and play in.
Kale wasn't into getting his picture taken, so I could only get a shot from afar (when he was playing in the neighbor's yard.)
I spent about 30 minutes bundling the boys up. Liam would not leave his shoes on, so I ended up getting several pairs of my fuzzy slipper socks and putting those on him. He also has my gloves on because he wouldn't wear his.
By the time we actually got outside, I was sweating like crazy as a result of wrangling both boys. It actually wasn't that cold outside...the snow was already beginning to melt by 9 a.m.
Places around here really shut down due to weather...worse even than Houston, which is hard to believe. They had cancelled class at the college before it even started to snow.
We had to get really creative at the inside play by Friday. It had been raining nonstop since Saturday, so the boys were done with being inside. We pulled out the playdough. Kale and Liam both tried to eat it.
Liam is really into coloring these days, so he did that for about an hour.
Kale went out onto our screened in patio to play. We have lots of riding toys and other fun toys out there. Both boys love playing out there. It's the outside/inside experience. There is a lock on the door, so they can't actually get outside. Even when it's rainy or snowy, the boys can play on the patio. It's so nice.
I wouldn't let Liam go out because I thought it was too cool for him. He stood at the door and stared at Kale.
