Snow Day

Friday, the kiddos and I got to stay home together for the day – since we all had a snow day! Daycare was closed and so was my work. Yipee!

Owen started his day out right – he decided he wanted to dress up in his new fireman boots and put on his fireman costume.

We also took some beads out and tried some sorting….he was VERY into it! and as a side note….all this fun was by 7:30 am! :)

We got syd up a bit after that and had some pb and j toasts and fruit for breakfast…then Syd decided she wanted to dress up too! she had a little train conductor hat on with her bandana…but quickly traded that for her minnie ears….she just looks so grown up here!

Here O-Yo, ears too!

‘cheese’

All decked out!

We needed some milk and a few other things, so we thought we’d brave the weather and head around the corner to the sore for some supplies…Syd insisted on wearing her minnie ears…and had to put on her rubber boots too, to be like her bro….Owen also wore his firefighter getup to the store – we were quite the sight but the kids LOVED it, so fine by me! :)

Once we got home and all situated, we played ‘bozo’s bucket bonanza’ and got out a ton of different sized balls and buckets and the kids tried to make baskets (sorry no pics!)

then we got out the painters tape and had some fun – seriously best.invention.ever for kid fun! :)

I’d tear pieces and put the around the end table or footstool and when the kids were ready, they’d grab a new piece! It kept them busy for at least 45 minutes – and then we even picked back up with it after nap time! quite a hit….

Owen even tried to make a little sweat band out of the tape! :)
