Just some pics about what we have been doing on our "snowcation" at home this past week...
Snow day #2
 |
| We finally made it outside for about 15 minutes on Wednesday...it was in the single digits maybe 10 degrees but windy! Daddy started digging us out! |
 |
| Daddy shoveling snow...check out his new truck in the garage...where it will stay until the roads are dry and the sun is shinning! |
 |
| Dalton climbing up one of the many snow drifts... |
 |
| A messy science fun part #1 gone way wrong...not really wrong just much messier than mommy had planned! Gooey stuff (1 cup cornstarch and 1/2 cup H2O). |
 |
| Science fun part #2 water and food coloring drops...look at that crazy hair...I made him an appt. to get his hair cut today...hopefully we will be able to get there before the next snow storm on Wednesday! |
 |
| Dalton just liked to squeeze the bottle and streams of food coloring versus drops of food coloring make a big difference...I guess that is part of the science! |
 |
| This is what it is supposed to look like... |
Snow day #3
 |
| Found this art activity on line...mix tempera paint with bubbles...they used a pie pan...mommy didn't have that much bubble solution on hand so we did little ones. Blow with a straw and then place paper on top of the bubbles and it makes a pretty cool design! Dalton just loved to blow the bubbles...surprise! |
 |
| This is when it was still wet...looks pretty cool when it dries you can do multiple colors and it looks pretty groovy! |
 |
| Gooey stuff again...it was a hit...mommy was prepared this time! Art smock, towel on floor and much more adult supervision! |
 |
| Just as much fun as the day before... |
 |
| He looks so serious...and that crazy hair again! |
 |
| Doesn't get much better than this...snow brought inside for you to play with while you watch Super Hero Squad on the DVD player! Someone please rescue this sweet boy from all of this abuse:) |
 |
| Mommy's little multi-tasker...making snow balls while gazing at the TV...he was in the zone! |
 |
| He got himself dressed for this snow play...hat, gloves and rain boots! He got them all on by himself...shoes were on the wrong feet but I was totally impressed with the gloves! I could get used to this indoor snow play...a lot less work involved for mom! |
Snow day #4...I think
 |
| Earlier in the snow week Dalton saw a Franklin episode where Franklin and his friends made homemade super hero costumes and used flashlights to defeat ghosts in their basements. We did our best today with construction paper, felt, staples, clothe pin and baby blanket...check out the super power bands on his wrists and ankles and of course the lightning bolts on his chest and headband! He was preparing to save some people from the yellow bus...he had to lift it with his super strong muscles! |
 |
| Finally back outside...sledding with his Uncle Kevin and cousin Melanie! Yes we are sledding down are snow drifts...it worked! |
 |
| I love this picture...this was their first trip down! Look at those smiles and it looks like Melanie is giving a thumbs up:) |
There is more snow to come and mommy is doing her best to enjoy this time with her hubby and little man at home but I am getting a little bit stir crazy...okay A LOT! I did get to take a 3 hour nap the other afternoon that would have never happened if we hadn't been snowed in so for that I am thankful! And the hubby took on all parental duties including dinner, putting Dalton's sheets back on his bed, a large mound of towel folding and entertaining the little man! He did great and I am forever grateful...I got up just in time to eat some dinner and have a fun filled slumber party with Dalton. He just thinks they are the best and I must agree...because there will come a time sooner than I would like that he will deny such a thing ever happened!
Ohhhh...I don't want my sweet boy to grow up...most days!
