Winter wonderland!


Emma and I try to go out for a walk every day, although during winter, it's not always easy! Today, the temperatures are hovering around freezing and there's a nice light snow, perfect walking day. Since it is snowing though, I decided to take the 3 wheel stroller which has a full plastic cover that goes over it. Get her all set up and "platicized" and off we go. I'm dating myself here, but anyone remember the movie "The boy in the plastic bubble"...I think it starred John Travolta...I keep getting flashes of that movie as I push around my big plastic bubble!lol I think I will use the cover if we're ever out in a downpour, but this seemed ridiculous, Emma will have to get used to snow eventually, so why not now!lol I uncovered her and she just giggled the whole way home, laughing every time a snowflake hit her face!lol I've noticed that on windy days, when we're running out and about and I'm carrying her, trying to shield her face from the cold winds, she's struggling to hold her face up to the wind and loving it... I guess after probably not being outside much at all for most of her first year of life, she likes the feel of nature on her skin!lol Here's a pic of my snow bunny. :-)
