The Great Indoors/Part 1

This week has been a little crazy - hence no postings for over a week.  I fight that craziness with projects that both Abby and I find fun.  It is a lot of work taking two outside in the winter.  Snowsuits/buntings, boots, hats, mittens that make a little girl very flustilated (translation : frustrated).  You get the point.  So I decided Abby should get to experience the snow even if I don't have the wherewithal to get both of them out.  Truth be told, I don't care for being out in the cold all that much.  So I opened our back door and filled up a beloved bin with snow.  To make it more exciting, I gave Abby spray bottles filled with liquid water colors.  I also had an old contact solution bottle (that I had been saving for a month for a purpose such as this) held her attention for a much longer time.  She also added some spoons, a pot, plates, and bowls to serve up her creations.  









By the way, I think I fixed the commenting issue for those who have not been able to do so - feel free to try again!  I love to hear from you.  Aaaaaaand less importantly, I had to stop using all lowercase  - it started to drive me nuts.

  2. What a great idea, and to think we have about 3 feet of snow as yet unused! I'm gonna try this!
