Snow Days!

We have had a lot of snow days around here in the last month. Seems like it only snows on weekday evenings this winter. Anytime there is even a little snow the school district delays the schools. I drove Jeffrey to preschool one morning when there was an inch of snow overnight, and found out that school was delayed one hour! Lucky for us the 2 year old classroom was open and Miss Sandy let us in to play with the toys until school started. (Jeffrey loved it!) It has been a challenge this winter entertaining Jeffrey when it is too cold to go outside. Here are some of our activities:

Jeffrey in a basket with balls!

Jeffrey 'helpfully' dumped out Meredith's stuffed animals for her and a pile for him. Thanks!

Jeffrey built a 'rocket ship car' out of couch cushions and also dumped a bin of stuffed animals again.

Sometimes we all go sledding in our backyard, its all fun and games until the baby tries to tip out of the sled you are pulling.

Today the trees looked like someone decorated them with sparkly crystal icicles, very pretty.

Happy Birthday Jeffrey !!

Jeffrey is four today!

He received nice presents from both sets of grandparents, and had a birthday party with his friends (and their parents) at the Alpha Fire Company. The kids got to ride a fire truck, play with some of the fire gear, and of course eat food and cupcakes.
