Snow Day!

Yet again, New Jersey got dumped on with snow. This time we got a good dose of it with about 6 inches or so. So that means out here, school is cancelled! We had one very happy 5 year old! I don't think he was ready to go back to school just yet and Thursday was rough enough getting him to go :-) So Monday will be his fresh start and I go back to work! Since it was pretty cold outside yesterday, we only let Declan go out with Andy for a while and then today, we let the girls go out (due to all of Declan's begging). It took longer getting everyone ready than the time that we actually spent outside, but it was fun! Here are a few pictures from the day...

Aven... She wasn't so sure about the snow... This was the first time that the girls have actually walked in the snow - I had them out last year, but they weren't walking yet and it only snowed a few times last year.

Bria was pretty fearless in the snow and seemed to enjoy it the most!

Declan helping Stevie out - she liked the snow, but it was pretty deep for her to get around.

Stevie couldn't move :-)

All the kids on the mountain! L to R: Bria, Stevie & Aven

Declan getting ready to throw a snowball at me and Bria clearly enjoying it.

And there it comes.

Bria getting ready to go out - trying on her new boots!

A few other pictures from the last few days - we had our first tea party! Everyone loved it!

Today I tried getting some pictures of the girls all together and it was yet again an epic fail. Think about how hard it is to get one 2 year old to do what you want, now times that by 3 - so not fun. I even tried bribing them with coloring and it didn't work - what??? Not sure what I'm going to do about that... Hopefully they learn. Here's a good one of Aven...

And Bria...

And she's not happy with me...

Now she is!

Now she isn't again...

Aven and Stevie, who was clearly not happy... 

And still a little unhappy...

A little better...

And there she is back!

While Aven just munched on some toys...
