In case you hadn't heard, we've gotten a ridiculous amount of snow here in New Jersey. Even 1" is a ridiculous amount, in my opinion, let alone many huge snowstorms with 18" each time. T said he liked snow in December. He was longing for a white Christmas, and he got it. After shoveling approximately 5 feet of snow thus far, he and his back are dunzo with the snow. Boozle, L, and I are also dunzo. We've been cooped up far too long and are just yearning for the sun.
Boozle loves trains and always wants to ride one. There's a fun one that does a little ride around Easter so I told him that when it gets warmer, we can go on the train. Not a day goes by without him reminding me that when it gets warmer, we get to go on a train! When it gets warmer... Now I'm thinking we should change it to if.
Needless to say, I've had to become very creative in coming up with inside activities for a very energetic 2 year-old. I checked out a few books from the library to get some ideas and we've actually had some fun doing the following activities:
snuggling in bed
bundling up and going to New York City for delicious brunch
trying to photo-document this growing-too-quickly sweet babe
hiding in boxes and popping out, making box tunnels for trains & people, etc...
giving Apa (monkey) a horsey ride
playing with water in the sink
singing Happy Birthday and blowing out candles many, many times
and taking naps because all this playing just wears us all out!

I Sverige fruktar vi att vi har kommit till en ny istid...
Jag är också så trött på snön!
These cute pix surely make me excited to play and hug Charlie and
Lincoln.
I love all the pictures! So cute!
Especially da taxi in NYC. You could just drive to the city, park, and ride around in a taxi for awhile, since Boozle was such a huuuuge fan.
Those boys are just too cute. We've had a terribly long winter, too. I keep thinking with longing of last winter, and how TJ and I ran almost the whole winter. Not this year. I, too, am beginning to despair of ever seeing the sun again. I'm trying to talk Rob into moving to a beach somewhere on the Equator.
linky appears to be a medium fan of the snuggling portion.
