Mr. Snowman

Jess has been asking me all winter to help him build a snowman, but I haven't ever been well enough, or the snow was too wet or he decided he didn't want to anymore. But last night it snowed the perfect kind of snow and he finally built one! All I did was help him stack it and make the holes so he could stick two carrot noses, two Oreo eyes and three Oreo buttons in. He wasn't interested in arms or a hat or anything else.  He rolled and built all the rest! Good job, Jespen!

Oops!  An Oreo button got soggy

He insisted on taking my picture with Mr. Snowman

Then he told me I'm too big - get down lower

J.R. took Daelan and Kiel snowboarding today. I'm more than happy to stay home with Jespen. I can't snowboard anyway and it's probably not a good idea to ski when you're 7 mos. pregnant. Jess has yet to enjoy the snow for more than an hour at a time, so we will give it a try next year. Well, J.R. will take the 3 boys and I will keep the baby company. I do love to look at the snow, though.  It's magical.  Warmth is better, though.
