A Sleddin' We Will Go!

The other day we looked out the window, saw the sunshine and decided it was time to ditch the jammies and get outside! After a looonnnnngggg trip to the local sporting good store for a sled and gloves (which they didn't have any that fit Claire's tiny little hands so I am now the proud owner of a pair of North Face mittens :) it was off to our local park for some sledding fun. Upon our arrival at the park we realized that the sun really does not make ANY difference when it is TWELVE degrees outside. Well, there was no turning back at that point. Claire was ready to sled.


Claire and Daddy ready for their first run.


Although the wind was frigid Claire was a trooper and hiked up the hill. She couldn't wait to go again.


Claire was ready to rock and roll! She wanted me to push them down the hill.



This time she decided that Daddy should pull her back up the hill (notice her enormous new mittens). It was after this trip that she asked me (with frozen boogies on her bright pink face) "Can we go warm up by the fire Mama?" So we headed inside to warm up and then Claire was ready to go down a few more times.


This is Claire on her last trip up the hill. She was so tired (and COLD) that she just laid in the sled while Daddy pulled her up the hill. After this trip she asked me "We go home and watch Tom and Jerry Mama?". So we did :)

Baby Komo Update: for those of you who I haven't made look at the sonogram pictures :) WE ARE HAVING A BOY!!!!!! We are really excited! Although we are having a little trouble with a name, we are looking forward to a little boy joining our madness :)
