Snowy playground

We took Noah to the T-burg playground today to climb around in the snow.





The playground is good for climbing, and for bouncing with Grammy.


What fun!


This was actually the first time he tolerated the mittens and boots for long enough to play in the snow.


Which, it turns out, is fascinating.



And then Noah left.


The end.

Down we go!

We had a lovely visit in Granby for Christmas, including lots of fun with the cousins and Noah's first (and second) sled ride.



Note to self: Remember earlier when I told you you'd be better off with silent movies? Seriously. Be quiet. You sound ridiculous.

Boys

Noah has some very fun cousins to emulate...










Boys. Sigh.

Hoodie time

Two peas in a pod, I tell you.




Also, apparently sweatshirts are hilarious.

Snowy night

The problem with working full time is that even if you leave early it's almost dark by the time you get home to play in the snow...




Better luck tomorrow...

Tunneling

Either Noah got a tunnel for Hanukkah or he has discovered a portal to another dimension...


Oh no! This new dimension is not good at all!!!

Also, we made it home from Boston safe and sound. Lots of snow, but happily none left on the highways.

Stuck

So we are in Boston this weekend, and are supposed to drive home this morning. There has been a small kink in this plan:




I am not sure this picture properly conveys the driving snow or the fact that south of here it is even worse (24 inches in Baltimore!?). But it does convey one thing I love about Boston: these people can handle the weather.




I took these photos at 8am on Sunday morning during a snowstorm, while walking to pick up some breakfast at a cafe, which was open with people dining there. There are people out walking and shoveling and doing what they need to do because guess what, it snows here and it's not the end of the world.

Whether the roads will be drivable anytime soon is to be determined. The aforementioned driving snow is not very encouraging...
