A Couple of Firsts...


bean went sledding for the first time today!!!!!!!!! HOORAY!! she went to visit her cousins today and they went out on the hill in their backyard. they all had SO MUCH FUN! bean didn't even mind trudging back up the hill after every run. (which was great because lugging my pregnant butt up the hill was hard enough, i didn't need to carry her too!!)

then they took a little break from the sled and built bean's first snowman! it was a lot of work- for me and my sister. when you build a snowman that is almost a foot taller than you are it is definitely difficult work. snow is heavy for goodness sake! anyways, it was worth it. the kids loved him- they had to take turns giving him hugs and kisses!

it was a fantastic day. we all had so much fun... although i think that bean's uncle jack was probably jealous when he got home and saw the snowman. he loves to do that sort of thing! hopefully it will keep snowing this winter so we can do this again and again!

I just found your blog not that long ago... but I can't remember where from.

Well, now that I see Brittany's comment I know where... it must have been her blog.

anyway... your kids are adorable and look at that snowman. Wow!

Have a great night

Uncle Jack's not the only jealous one - I am too!!! Sounds like such a fun time. Did you make snowangels and snow icecream, too!??!?

Great pics! I'm jealous... our snow has not been moist enough for packing. My Lauren is dying to make a snowman and doesn't quite understand why it won't work.
