Stuck at home because of the ice, we resort to being silly with our boys to pass the time. And of course, taking photos… and lots of them.

Day one of the Icepocalypse started with wrestling in bed and playing Logan’s favorite game, ‘Fly’.

The dogs were thoroughly unimpressed with Logan’s flying skills. And I think Max (the Chiweenie) might be frozen. He doesn’t handle this cold weather very well.IMG_0064 IMG_0067 IMG_0068 IMG_0069 IMG_0072

Next up, we painted our toenails. This started with the Momma painting her toenails. Logan saw and wanted the same. He decided to go with a rainbow theme and paint each toenail a different color. We used the opportunity to practice naming our colors. IMG_0079 IMG_0084 IMG_0090 IMG_0091 IMG_0093 IMG_0094 IMG_0097 IMG_0100 IMG_0102 IMG_0103 IMG_0104

After lunchtime and nap, we got bundled up to go outside and play in the ice. Dressing Logan felt like dressing the kid in A Christmas Story. Luckily, I had JUST ordered him a coat, gloves, and a hat during Old Navy’s Black Friday sale. It came in on Wednesday– seriously just in time.

Dressing Atticus was a different story. We don’t have a coat for a 6 week old, so I put a regular cotton sleeper on him with a fleece sleeper on over it. I then put him in a wrap strapped to my front and put a coat on that fit both of us. I topped him off with a cute little hat. I still felt like it was too cold for him, so he stayed outside long enough to snap a couple of pictures of his first “snow” day and then went inside for a nap.

We had been reading all week about snowmen in anticipation of the weather this weekend, but unfortunately, there was very little snow and a ton of ice. So, no snowmen, but we found other ways to have fun:IMG_0112IMG_0121 IMG_0122 IMG_0124 IMG_0125 IMG_0126 IMG_0127 IMG_0128 IMG_0134 IMG_0137 IMG_0138 IMG_0139 IMG_0143 IMG_0145 IMG_0146 IMG_0158 IMG_0161 IMG_0162 IMG_0164 IMG_0168 IMG_0171 IMG_0178 IMG_0179 IMG_0186 IMG_0187 IMG_0189 IMG_0193

That evening, after we put Logan to bed, we snuggled on the couch and watched a little TV. It feels good to get caught up on our shows! Atticus snuggled down with his Dada and fell asleep.  <3
