Audrey liked being out in the snow today but was a little "under the weather" so we didn't stay long. I opened all the shutters in the house in an effort to bring the outside in for her.
We went out three different times but didn't stay out 15 minutes total! She signed "outside" and said "side" about a hundred and fifty times today! This was the first trip out.
We don't have a winter hat for Audrey because up until this point she hasn't let us put anything on her head other than a hairbow. Well.... during her signing episodes this morning, I told her we couldn't go out without a hat. I went digging around and all I could come up with was her pig costume from Halloween. She LOVED it! She's worn it all over the house today! I tried and tried for WEEKS to get her to wear it at Halloween but nnooooooo-- no, no, no! I think I have laughed more today over this hat than I have in a long time! Isn't it so cute!!!
Clay came home early to "take care of his girls" and we took our second trip out in the snow. It was so hard for the two of us not to break out in a major snowball fight. We both tend to lean toward the competitive side and he started it by throwing the first one at me. I tried to use Audrey as a shield and get close enough to him to bust him with one but it never worked out. My mommy side of my brain beat the "kill him now" side of my brain and I took Audrey inside. We'll see about tomorrow though!
In these pictures, he is trying to hit a snowball and make it explode on me ( and his one and only precious, SICK, baby girl!). Can you just see the pure JOY on his face?!?
We took our final trip out because I majorly overexposed the pictures from trip #2 (I tried to salvage them by making them b&w and tinkering with the contrast. Let's just pretend I meant for them to look that way!) and we had to have a redo.
Hopefully sweet little Audrey is fever free tomorrow so she can actually put her hands in the snow. Maybe even throw a little at Daddy???
