a winter wonderland

I know that the snowfall in the Maritimes has made the national news again this morning, so I thought I would share our local result. Yes we got some, scrap that, lots of snow and there's more in the forecast for the weekend. It is a winter wonderland. What a waste that there are no mountains.

This was our yard LAST weekend.

This is the yard this morning.  I'm 5'5" and the snow is at my nose when standing in our drive. It's awesome.

Video update - this was taken a few days ago. Kate's first sledding experience - or sliding experience as Cody calls it. Not sure if sliding is an Eastern-ism or a Cody-ism.

Another video - just one that I enjoy of Elliott playing with Pappa's birthday balloons.

Speaking of birthdays - we're counting down to Kate's.  She turns 2 on Sunday! We can't wait. In the last days she has shown substantial changes again.  She's all kid - next to no baby. She's into having conversations, calls on things from the recent past and loves making people laugh (until you scream).  She's also more and more into her brother - he seems to be the only person that can always soften her. This Sunday, Grammie, Aunty, the cousins and a few friends will be here for her celebration.  Stay tuned for a special Bday post.

Happy Winter to all!
xoxo Aimee (Mamma of a 2 year old)

  1. The snow coordinates really well with your house, it looks so magical! Hope you don't get too much more, but with all the birhtday fun inside you won't even notice. Happy Birthday Kate! Look forward to seeing all the party pics.
