Scotty the Snowman

When Scott and I arrived in Utah a week before Dude, it was SNOWING! And it snowed every day!! But I resisted and insisted on waiting to take Scott out until Dude arrived. I'd love to say that Scott loved the snow... but it just didnt seem to be the case. He was.... intrigued seems like a good word for it...
We just stayed in my parents yard, as we knew it wasnt gonna last long, and didnt want a grumpy baby anywhere farther than a few feet from warmth! Daddy pulled mommy and Scott around on the sled, which was not Scott's favorite thing, and he was constantly trying to turn around and climb up his mommy.
When we put Scott on his tummy in the snow, he seemed fascinated. He looked at it, and rubbed his mittened hand around. Bad idea of the day: took Scott's mitten off and made him touch the snow. That turned him quickly from fascinated to ticked, and the mitten was back on faster than you can say "bob's your uncle".


But, despite the lack of fun he had, and the short time we were out there... LOOK HOW CUTE!! I'd bundle that kid up and torture him anyday for cute pictures and memories like this! What a fun first snow day, and we hope they just get better as he gets older and more adventurous (heaven help me) :)

He looks so cute all bundled up! Alexis thinks that the snow looks like fun and then after a few minutes out there she realizes that she's cold and it's over, which is fine with us. But since Scott's parents enjoy being outdoors I hope that he likes it more and more as he gets older!

I love that he loves the snow. Good thing you can still visit a place where it does snow!
