Snow Play


Yesterday the weather was a bit warmer, and by warmer I mean it was in the 30s. David is finally feeling a bit better, so we thought it would be a great day to play in the snow. At first David was upset at how hard it was to walk in the snow, but eventually he got the hang of it. Andrew took David sledding in a small saucer, David loved it, laughing and smiling all the way down. He really liked sliding down his own plastic slide and falling into the snow. It was a lot of fun to see him discover this new winter playland.

Tree Lighting 2007



This year the tree lighting was on one of the coldest nights of the year. Like I said before, David loves lighted Christmas trees, he was fascinated by the giant one in the middle of the town green. As we caroled he just stared and pointed in awe. Afterward, we braved the single digit weather into the reception area and enjoyed music, treats and friends.

1st Noreaster of the Winter

On Sunday night and well into Monday our first Noreaster hit. We got almost a foot of snow just in time to create a winter wonderland for December. Notice my car is covered even though it was under the carport.

David and I had a fun time watching from the warm indoors in our PJs. He loves to cuddle with his pal Mickey. David really enjoys our tree. He loves the lights and is very good about being careful around it. He even gets mad at Cheeky Bunny when she snacks from its branches. David believes it's his tree. In the morning, if I haven't turned on the lights, he points at it until I do.

David enjoys climbing all over the furniture.
Here he is acting like his Mama.

Enjoying some tickle time with Daddy,
who had a lot of shoveling ahead of him

November News

I know it's been a while since I have updated the blog, here is the month in review. The weather got really cold and we even got some snow in the middle of November.
Next we prepared for Grandpa Keith and Grandma Mary to come and visit for Thanksgiving. We had some exciting news to share with family and friends. Keith and Mary arrived on a very chilly Thanksgiving evening and we all celebrated our meal on Friday. It was nice and relaxing, stayed indoors mostly as David has been sick ever since the weather got cold. David enjoyed playing with Grandma and Grandpa and loved the music.

In this first video, David is waiting for the camera to flash :)






The next day we went traveled into Vermont, toured the Ben and Jerry's factory and happened upon a McDonald's with an indoor playland! You would be surprised how rare they are around here, when it's as cold as it is here, they are wonderful. We also enjoyed meals at Molly's and Lou's before Keith and Mary made the long trek home.
