We took the kids out this weekend for their first sledding adventure. Landon had been out in the snow a few times, but this was their first time to go sledding down our backyard hill. I think both kids had a lot of fun. Landon went down by himself and had so much momentum going that he stopped about a foot from the woods on the east side of our house.
Emerson and I went down the hill together and since she didn't cry, I say that she had fun! :) Then after our sledding adventure (which is a good workout by the way!) the kids played in the snow a little. Landon really wanted to walk, but with boots one size too big and his snowpants and winter coat on, he struggled! The good news is when he landed on his face in the snow, he tried to get back up and didn't cry. Emerson also had a hard time crawling because of all of the footprints in the snow. It was so uneven that she did several face plants as well! But overall I think the afternoon was a success. We were hoping for long naps, but no luck so by 7:00 they were pretty grouchy and ready for bed (about an hour early). We hope for many more fun days in the snow in the years to come!
Cute Cute. Good job Mom and Dad.
ReplyDeletethat's awesome that you were finally able to take the kids out to play in the snow! i wish i could have seen landon flying down the hill. i bet he loved it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun post! And the kids were not grouchy :) I love that your kids like snow and we are still waiting for our sledding invite that didn't happen last year :)
ReplyDeleteHow adorable are your children? Let me answer that. So adorable that these pictures make it really really hard for their aunt to be so far away! I wish I could've been there to see their first experience playing in the snow but I'm glad to hear they had such a fun time. I hope to be there some other time in the future to play in the snow. Love you all!
