Snowy Day With My Boys

Life has gotten pretty normal this week. It's great! We have had a lot of fun just settling back in. Here's a glimpse into our day today enjoying being around the house and then getting out into the snow...
Tavin at breakfast. He's just so cute with his blue eyes and his blue bib. I think I take a picture of him sitting in his high chair every other day. He's going to have 100's of pictures like this by the time he finally gets some hair.
Koen has really been enjoying his ambulance that Lisa gave him. He plays with it morning, noon and night, literally! The ambulance men do emergencies all day until a meal and then they sit at the end of the kitchen island eating while he has his meal and then when Koen's done, they are all off again. Koen's been enjoying driving the ambulance around and Tavin chasing after them, that's the latest development. Here's a video of them following each other around...

Tavin is such a trooper! He doesn't make a peep, not one complaint, despite the fact he's strapped in a sled, enduring a temp of 24 degrees or so and a good gusty wind. He actually even took his first snow faceplant today and he only barely cried and then he was fine. Such a content little guy. I'm so blessed by this little one!
That's my adventurer! He looks like quite the little dude all decked out. I was wishing for a pair of snowpants myself. Ah, those were the days! Koen did really well being a big boy and pulling his sled all the way to the playground. We tried to find a hill to sled on and that didn't work very well, so then we played on the playground. We figured out that sliding down snow-covered slides was a super alternative. Koen flew in his snowpants against the plastic and snow and then he would swoop off into a heap of snow at the bottom. So fun! On the way home, Koen was too tired to walk all the way home, so I pulled the two boys in their two sleds. I must be a hilarious site for people to laugh at!
When we got home Koen stayed and played in the backyard while I got lunch ready. Looks like he found some sled rescuing to do! He's got such a great imagination!
