Lily's first Snow

Over the past 24 hours we have had 2 feet of snow fall! This is the first snow we've had in Philadelphia this year so far. School has already been canceled for tomorrow and I thought that since I don't have to get to bed early, this is the perfect opportunity to update Lily's blog.

After the snow finally stopped 24 hours later, Chris was just ITCHING to take Lily out in it so she could see it and play in it for the first time. She is getting over a cold and I argued this with Chris, but his goofy smile prevailed as always! We bundled up Lily in a sleep and play, snow pants, and then finally put on her hat, mittens, and jacket. We put her snow boots on her, but they didn't fit in the makeshift sled that Chris made out of a tupperware container and twine...(Don't even ask my what the hell he was thinking!)

Lily lasted all of 2 minutes because she promptly fell out of the sled that Chris was pulling and landed face first in the snow- which Chris thought was hysterical... but to which I panicked and picked her up all dramatic and wiped all the snow off- she was fine- but she was no longer interested in the snow!

I think she will have more fun next year when she can walk and run in it....We hope everyone has a blessed Christmas and we look forward to being able to spend time with each other, (me and Chris), and with our families. We hope to get lots of pictures including pictures with Caren's dad who plays Santa every year-

Merry Christmas!
