8+ inches of snow... enough that even this family of adventurers (lead by the XY among us) didn't venture out yesterday! Elle played with her new tool bench, and quickly learned how to wield a hammer (see below), screwdriver, and drill. Notice she does this (and everything else this weekend) sporting her lime green shoes... which she has suddenly fallen in love with and demands that they be on constantly. Clearly, without regard to how well they may go with the rest of her attire. "Mama Shoes!", followed closely by "Mama Shoes ON!"... if heaven forbid I haven't accomplished the task in the 12 seconds she deems reasonable, "Mama Shoes Foot!" standing on one leg holding the other foot up to me as high as she can. Hilarious. Not opinionated, this one. Not one bit.
Check out her kitchen tower in the pics as well-- sort of like a toddler lifeguard stand that lets her be at counter height-- she loves it-- thanks Granny Margaret! This morning when I opened the fridge to get her milk she said "App-ple", so I let her cut her plastic apple with her plastic knife on the island while I cut the real one beside her. She found it hilarious.
Also a few pictures of our (brief) frolick in the snow. I think E was intrigued by the concept, but not exactly thrilled by the immobility that 8+ inches of snow imposed upon her. We did make snow angels (see below) and trudge up and down the scraped driveway. When we got back inside she kept saying "Mama Coat"... "Mama Hat"... "Mama Mitt-ttens"...."Mama Outside (Ow-Sigh)", but when I asked her if she REALLY wanted to go back out, she'd shake her head Noooooooo. Too cute.
See the Mama angel on the left (radiologist's right), and Baby Angel on the right (radiologist's left)?
Whew.
