Although it didn't start snowing in Cary until about 9 pm yesterday, we technically had a white Christmas! What a treat. When we woke up this morning the entire neighborhood was covered in white and it was still fluttering down out of the sky. The world was silent and still. What a beautiful sight and sound. Sydney has croup, so unfortunately she was not in shape for sledding or snow man building today. So sad. We couldn't not let the kids experience the snow, though, so we bundled them up and took them for a wagon ride around the neighborhood. They loved it! It was perfect for Sydney because the cold air quells her coughing and she didn't have to exert herself at all. The only problem was finding appropriate clothing. Since we are southerners it doesn't make much sense to invest in expensive snow suits that our children will outgrow each year. So we don't bother, but when the snow comes we are always saying, "I wish we had ski or snow clothes for them so they could go out and have fun without getting cold and wet!" Well, we did have ONE snow suit, size 12-18 months from when Sydney was a toddler in Paris...only problem is that it is PINK. Oh well, Brett said it was ok, so Pierce went in the girly pink snow suit and had a good old time! He didn't care what color it was, but I was quite hesitant to put him in it. He loved his snow ride and even loved the pink snow suit. SO CUTE! I love these monkeys!
