Just Because

What's cuter than a baby in a hat?


I just want to kiss all over those little round cheeks!  I snapped this picture a few weeks ago actually.  It was the first time it had been cold enough to bundle up with the hat, mittens (which we've already lost and replaced) and the heavy winter coat.

It's stayed pretty cold ever since, and just this weekend we had our first snow.  We started with a bang with about 8 inches!  It was good timing because it moved in on Friday late afternoon/early evening, so we were able to stay at home and spent Friday night inside eating warm soup, watching a Christmas video, and watching the snow.  It was a cozy, beautiful evening.

While Mat was shoveling Saturday morning, I got MJ all bundled up in his snowsuit and snowboots and took him outside.  I was hoping he would like it this year, but he wasn't much of a fan.  In fairness, I don't think he was feeling very well, but he really wanted nothing to do with it.  I personally can't say that I blame him.  I'd much rather look at the snow from inside my warm, cozy house, but if we live here for the long haul I know that I'll have to overcome this and MJ will likely grow up liking playing outside in the snow and winter sports.
