Let it Snow...Let it Snow....Let it Snow!

We have all been enjoying this rare treat of snow. I got Calvin all bundled up, with the exception of his gloves because he wouldn't keep them on. He almost looked like the brother from the Christmas Story...."I can't put my arms down"....but he wasn't quite that bad. At first he didn't know what to do until we went over to our neighbors and their son starting throwing snowballs. After that Calvin starting touching the snow and laughing. Later we went on a walk around the neighborhood where we ran into some friends who had a sled. So of course Calvin got on while one of the girls pulled him around on it and he was laughing so hard! I guess I need to get him one before we go to Bend, OR next.











After we got back from our walk Calvin was at the door begging to go back outside!






Aren't those snow pants adorable????

Big Helper




Calvin was helping Eric the other day rake up all the leaves in the back yard! He loves being outdoors especially now that he is walking so well. A few days after that I had to sweep up more leaves on the front sidewalk and as soon as I put the broom down he picked it up and started sweeping for me! It was so adorable. Now when Calvin is inside the house and sees the broom he grabs it and starts dragging it around the floor. I guess he is already OCD like his daddy. :)
