In a largely failed outing, I took my kids to play in the snow this morning. After an hour's drive we arrived! Hurray, we would play and sled and eat snow and make snow angels and snow villages!!! My rain bound kids will not be 'snow stupid'!
Like an icicle shattering after its fall, so was this vision... In less than 15 minutes both RJ and JJ had both managed to fall into the snow without their gloves and get snow up their sleeves. At 22 degrees, snowy gloves and cold wet hands quickly turned into crying and pleas to go home.
So, back to the car to warm up, I held out hope for a 2nd try.... Ahhhh, No luck! Laughing, I packed them up and back to the Seattle we came.
Next time!!!!

JJ news
A few new things on the JJ front:
We've been potty training with mixed levels of effort and effect for a number of months. However, for the past few days JJ, has, unprompted, whether wearing a diaper, undies or bare bottomed, has been consistently using the potty for poo! Including using the bathroom at the library. Pee pee continues to be more of a challenge, but as messes go, I'll take it!! Hopefully I haven't jinxed us by sharing.
In other news, his vocabulary is growing by leaps and bounds. One interesting thing is that, often, though not always, JJ has started to stress/repeat the last sound of the last word of his sentence, usually the 's' 't' or 'ch' sounds.
Me: JJ, what are you doing?
JJ: 'Im playing with my trucks...s...s.'
Mostly Jeremy refers to himself as Jeremy Bear... Rucker.
