We had a dusting of snow earlier this week and Eve was thrilled! She begged to go out. She put on her boots and snow pants and ran outside. She cleared off the car and caught snowflakes on her tongue. She was disappointed that we couldn’t build a snowman, or make a snow angel, or go sledding, or shovel the driveway, but overall I think she had fun. I promised her there would be more snow in the future :)

Eve, playing in the snow.

She insisted on clearing off the car :)

I hear there is a lot more snow in upstate NY. I’m sure it will be headed this way soon enough. :)

I was all set to post some pictures of Eve playing in the snow (our first snowfall, which has already melted and apparently pales in comparison to Upstate NY), but alas technical issues have bested me. Where is my hubby to work his tech magic when I need him?!?! Oh, right, working his tech magic at WORK! Of course.

So, instead, here is a cute picture I’m going to show Eve when she wakes up and a link to a blog post I happened upon while looking for the picture. It ends with “She’s such a joy. How did we get so lucky with her??” That statement still holds true today!!

More than happy – December 6, 2007

Off to make snack and then meet Lex at the bus stop. Eve and I made gingerbread dough this morning… can you guess what we’ll be doing this afternoon? :) Eve helped by licking and sampling everything I would let her. Sugar/butter = yummy; all purpose flour = yummy; spoonful of cloves = not so yummy! :0
