Snow + Kids = Fun!

lc3141


Kids and snow go hand in hand.  We had to take Tristan out to play in the snow, he was thoroughly bundled and I was pretty impressed that when he came in over an hour later the only thing cold on him was his cheeks and his hands - they just don't make good toddler gloves - or we haven't found them.

I bundled Adrianna in a too little snow suit thing, one that had been her brothers and I couldn't get it all zipped up, so she and I only stayed out about 10 minuted before we left Twister to his PaPaw.  Since my arms were full of Addy I just brought the little point and shoot with me to snap a few shots.

I leaned down with Addy and asked Tristan for a pose, well guys, the snow was calling, with one eye on me, as soon as he could tell I had snapped he was off.

Nearly an hour later I leaned out the back door and snapped a few more.  His cheeks have pinked up.




"Tristan are you cold?"


BIG head shake, no.


"Do you want to come in?"


BIG head shake, NO!

He absolutely enjoyed eating snow off his coat.

"Tristan are you cold?"


BIG head shake, no.


"Do you want to come in?"


BIG head shake, NO!

I stepped a couple of steps closer to him and he noticed his baby sister standing at the back door.

She was watching her PaPaw and Uncle Haden working on a fort.


lc3134


I tried to get a better shot of her through the glass but the reflections still interfered.  She noticed her brother and smiled.


lc3135


Tristan ran back to help with the fort and I went back in the house.   A short time later. . .




"Tristan are you cold?"


BIG head shake, no.


"Do you want to come in?"


BIG head shake, NO!


"I think you should come in. "

It appeared that the boy would never be ready to come in so Uncle Haden scooped him up and carried him.  I was able to shoot this through the window, from the warmth of the kitchen.

His eyes seem to be pleading for more time in the snow.

He quickly forgot about playing outside when he started helping PaPaw with the gingerbread house.

  3. Give him 30 years. He'll be cold.
    The first shot of Addy was a killa. But they all bring back memories of when it used to snow here once in a while.

  14. Tristan looks so happy in the snow! These photos should appear in the family album! And I think Addy would like to play with her brother, too. Most probably she's thinking "If only I have outdoor winter clothes that fit, I'll beat Twister in a snowball fight:)"...

  15. When choosing a wintertime ladies coat try and select a style that may be both casual and also dressy. Whilst this might appear difficult in the first instance with a little online searching in the internet boutiques you should find the ideal garment. It'd be a good idea to begin purchasing the clothes you need before the winter season really comes. After the start of the winter season and the chilly winter weather arrives lots of the recognized brands could well be sold out so jump in early. Winter fashions 2012 for women are present in the on-line and offline boutiques as I write so pick your selections carefully and make sure to be warm and furthermore fashionable.-
