Blizzard 09 Part Tres



Once again, our weatherpeople were spot-on and a big storm actually did hit our area. For us, 4-6" is a big deal! Also, snow in March is a big deal. NC is really on a roll this year!

Last night, my darling son gave me a break and let me sleep! He actually slept rather peaceful from midnight to 5:30 AM. I know this is a fluke, but flukes are good for recharging. He got up, ate, pooped, burped and passed back out, so I got another little stretch of sleep in. Since Devin was home, he got up with Lily and fed her breakfast and got her ready for some playtime in the snow.

This is what Colin did while I snuck out to photograph my 2 big kids, enjoying the winter weather

Lily is lucky to have a cool Dad -- he dragged out some boating stuff (kneeboard and tube) to drag her down the street in. They also built a really cool snowman -- Lily put the buttons on all by herself :)



Then there was the snowball fight -- which Devin won by hitting Lily and Lily won by hitting my car

    Lily will have to ask her grandfather about the best way to enjoy that hill in the snow. It's so steep no driver in his right mind will attempt to go up. Her great-grandmother never knew, I suppose, that Dan and I would slide down the middle of the street when the snow was just right. If there hadn't been houses in the way, we'd have gone over the hump at the end of the street and kept going to the river!

    Colin is just gorgeous ... and looks so sweet sleeping. So happy you were able to share some moments watching your big kids in the snow - the pics are FABULOUS!

    Sigh. I love sleeping baby pictures. Colin is just too beautiful.

    Nice to see Lily helped with the snowman! Sam kept on destroying the ones Joe made for him. :) And snowball fights with Daddy must have been the order of the day!
