Snow Day Fun !

Two snow storms hit Cincinnati this last week of January and that means the city shuts down. I didn't brave the elements even with an 8 minute commute. I spent the day home with the girls on Wednesday and we had fun !



We started the day off with a little bowling...



Mia getting bundled up and not sure about the hat...



Maddy climbing on the snow pile from when I shoveled on Tuesday AM
(you never would have known the driveway was touched by Weds AM).
It was still snowing at noon and we ended up with about 4 inches of snow, an inch of ice & another 6 inches of snow.
Mia is not a big fan of snow... especially not snow up to her knees...
it would be waist high if the inch of ice didn't stop herWhat a good big sister- Maddy pulling Mia through the snow
(the streets had not been touched by noon)

Mia was content on the sled for about all of five minutes.The snow was still coming down as Maddy enjoyed being pulled on the sled.The girls take time out for a CHEEEEEZZZ.Kylie & Maddy on the sled.Mia preferred to drive the car in the garage than
playing with the cold white stuff outside.Mia's first hot chocolate and from the looks of things it was good !These are just some random older pics that I thought were cute & worth sharing !
Maddy pushing Mia in her new car.

Mia loves the car Mommy & Daddy gave her for Christmas !


Mia loves to draw and paint. She isn't all that bad for a 1 year old.

Maddy showing off her cute tights & dress one Sunday afternoon.

Mia keeps trying to get in bed with Maddy, but it only lasts a few minutes.

Maybe she is ready for a big girl bed?


The girls were wearing their matching red dresses and trying to get them to take a picture together was a challenge- but it paid off with these big smiles !
Dirty faced Mia gives us a big CHEEEZZZ !

Maddy was cooperating until Mia sat down next to her.
She has become quite obsessed with the phone these days.

Not sure if Mia is happier to be playing with the camera or that she found her big sister's toy and nobody has taken it from her yet.


Both girls had pneumnoia the 2nd week in January and Maddy was looking for sympathy while Mia was as happy go lucky as always.

The first time Maddy tried out her new sled was the first Weds in January.

Cute pictures. What fun. I was driving through Indiana with three kids during that snow storm. Luckily I had the Jeep with 4 wheel drive or I would not have made it home. Once I got back up North the roads were fine. Go figure.
