We told her is was "snow" - and she immediately pointed to her nose. Okay, so "snow" and "nose" are similar sounding I guess...LOL. After breakfast, we got her dressed up in warm clothes and went out on the back patio to explore the snow. She wasn't sure what to make of it. It didn't help that the new snow boots mama bought her for her birthday are still a little big... But she loves her flowered jacket (thanks Heidi!).
We had a hard time finding a hat and mittens that work for her. It seems these items are either in "infant" size (0-24 mos.) in which case Lia's head is WAY too big for the hats - or they are in "toddler" size (2-4 yrs) in which case the mittens are WAY too big. So we went with the too big mittens...and as you can see, they don't stay on (next time I will put her coat on over them).
She was too scared to actually touch the snow with her hand, but she liked it when I threw a snowball in the air and she watched it smash on the ground. So fun!

walmart has infant mittens only for $1 - I bought the kids four pairs each. Really, they loose them all the time and those prices I can afford to stock up.
so exciting!! i remember growing up with snow every year. i don't "miss" it, but i miss it, you know?
she looks so thrilled!
