Winter has arrived, with snow and ice and salt and bitter cold, and that means bundling up the babies every time we go outside. This is Abbey's second winter as a walker in convertible car seat, so she's used to the drill. Also, she's kind of an accessories girl, so she doesn't have a problem donning scarves, mittens, hats, and coats.
Dylan, on the other hand, attempts to pull his hat off anytime he can move his arms. I have to mention that, because when he's wearing his coat, he kind of resembles that little boy in The Christmas Story who falls down and can't get up again when he's all snow-suited up to walk to school. Combine that with his non-walking status makes him an awkward little guy to tote around.
Winter has only just started sticking out its ugly tongue around here; we have months of this mess ahead of us. Pretty as the snow may be when it's blanketing the trees outside of our windows, it really does make it more difficult to get around town. I almost miss the days of the baby carriers and the Bundle Me, but I don't think I could carry either of them around on my arm anymore!
Luckily, they're pretty darn cute in their hats!
see, he takes it off when he has the opportunity
I'm pretty sure he thinks it's a game now
my friend Andrea made his hat
she donates part of the cost to a local food bank
Merry Christmas to you! Our heads, at least, will be toasty and warm :)
