snow day #1

Today marks snow day #1. I must say I'm not really excited about this fact (I was hoping for an early out, since tomorrow will most likely be a snow day as well, according to the forecast - and I hate adding a make-up day to the calendar already!).

Anyway, Braden and I are home enjoying a lazy day. Since I didn't get the call that school was cancelled until after (huge bummer!) we were dressed and ready for the day, Braden and I met up with a friend for breakfast. And since I had him all bundled up to go out, and it wasn't too windy, I let B play in the snow for a little while . . .

Braden's first steps in snow!

Looks like we need to find some mittens that stay on! I'm glad I went ahead and got him boots though (I debated if toddler boots were really necessary) - because he loved stomping around in the snow. Now I am wishing I had purchased the sled I found at Target that has a little seat/seatbelt! Maybe Santa will bring it!

Well, back to being lazy. The agenda for the day is shaping up to be something like this: breakfast out, play in the snow, and now watch Christmas movies that I have tivo-ed but haven't had a chance to watch yet, lunch, nap (maybe for both B and I?), and then perhaps some gift wrapping and/or cookie baking (depending on how long B sleeps). I guess there could be worse things than a snow day!
