We enjoyed the snow today! In fact, Grace wouldn't leave me alone until I let her go out to explore it! She wasn't about to wait all day until NiNi came with her snowsuit, so I managed to get her into Jasmin's and let her out. She was so excited - and then shocked and upset at how cold it was :o) She didn't like having mittens on - she took them off to properly play with the snow! Of course, it didn't take us too long to pursuade her she did need them on. Even so, she still prefers to have them off for the first little while. This is her third time outdoors, this time with her very own snowsuit and boots that NiNI brought with her.
Jasmin was not too impressed with the whole affair. She found it highly annoying that she has to relearn to walk! Boots, snowsuit, and snow all make it a new exercise entirely. She never moved from where Daddy put her down! And, of course, the only thing she thought snow was good for was eating!
The promised event! Daddy came out to play too! And to build that snowman Grace had been pestering for all day. She was quite intrigued by the whole process, but was a bit too rough with her additions - the poor man had to be patched a good number of times. They built another after this one, then they had to come in for supper. Grace was beside herself with tiredness, but came in with great protest because they needed to make a mommy snowman; after all, they had a daddy and a baby one...
Grace actually fell asleep during supper. She ate some and then curled up on her chair making fake snoring sounds. Daddy took the hint and settled her on a beanbag chair with her blankie. She is still there now at 9, waiting for Daddy to transfer her to bed.
