Snowcation 2015

It was just a few weeks ago that we were enjoying 60-70 degree weather in February and I was saying "Please let it snow!".  Finally our area got it's first real snow and so far we have had an entire week off from school and we'll see if we get any more days off. 
 
I swear, teachers are more excited than the kids when it comes to snow days!
 
Over this awesome, unexpected break, we have had a bit of cabin fever due to the crazy cold temperatures outside, but a few times have been able to get outside.  A few milestones were reached and a lot of fun was had.
 
Preston and Lyla had their first bath together!  Now that Lyla is officially sitting up and really sturdy it was time to get her out of the whale tub and in with Preston!  They had a lot of fun and of course I had the camera.


Lyla started finger foods this month, just before the snowcation began.  What did we start with?  Puffs, of course!  She wasn't quite sure what to do with it at first...


...but soon figured it out :)


And she loves them!  We have tried the yogurt melts (she is still unsure about those) and soon will try small bananas to keep her going with refining her motor skills.


The first snow we got was 6+ inches and it was great!  Preston got to go sledding three times with Daddy and they had an awesome time!  Preston came back one day with scratches all over his face from sledding in to a thorn bush, but that's beside the point...(right, Daddy?).
 
When it started snowing, it was definitely time to taste it!


This will give you a bit of an idea of what their sledding experience was like:
 
 
We have thoroughly enjoyed our February Snowcation!
