snow day!

We got a whole 2" or so of snow/ice in North Carolina which is always a huge deal and calls for a snow day. Schools were out, offices were clothes, and fun was had!

I also learned how fun it is to try to get dressed for the snow (in NC) when you are 34 weeks pregnant. Leggings and your husbands coat? That'll do. 

And of course no snow day is complete without hot cocoa (luke-warm for toddler lips)!

Helping me cook "eggies".

 We are attempting drinking out of little cups (without lids). 50% of the time she gets the drink in her mouth.

This girl is BRAVE. She figured out how to to climb the rock wall at the park we go to, and I try not to freak out the whole time as I spot her.

Loves her Little People. And loves to pretend they go to the "Quarium" to see the fishies.

We spend a lot of our days at Marbles Kids Museum, since we got a membership for Christmas. And at 7 months pregnant, it keeps this slow-moving momma sane!

Lucy has learned to dress herself and is very opinionated lately about what she wears. The flashier the better!

We have been spending most of our cold January indoors snuggling and playing. Although I can't wait for hot sunny summer days, I wouldn't mind a few snowflakes. If it's going to be cold, it might as well snow, right??

Did your heater survive the polar vortex?

Here in NC it was cold. Ice on the inside of your windows cold. 

So I decided I would share some oober cute pictures of Lucy all bundled up. Because nothing warms your heart and makes you squeal (and think of a Christmas story) more than a child stuffed into a puffy warm coat, a hat and mittens. 

I melt...
