Let me just say that this winter, as far as Ohio winters go, has sucked. There has been plenty of rain…flooding…fifty-plus degree weather…then some more rain…bitterly cold days…and the occasional millimeter of snow…that’s gone the next day because it’s fifty-plus degrees. Did you notice anything strange about the weather? Um…perhaps the lack of snow? Ridiculous. This is Ohio, People. By now we should have had enough snow to make snow cones for the entire continent of Asia. We were threatened that there were going to be storms…but they never came. Now, here we are on February 12th…over three months into Ohio’s snowy season and we are in the middle of receiving our first big snow. It’s been coming down steadily for about 8 hours…only to pause to allow the freezing rain to have a chance at gracing our streets…and then start again. Allegedly it’s going to continue until tomorrow afternoon. Now that we have enough snow that it’s actually covering the grass, we took Nora out to have her first real look at the beautiful powder. In true child-fashion it took more time to get her dressed and undressed to play outside than we spent out there. And so, some pictures from my baby’s first trip out in the snow:
Coming out the door…amazing that she could actually walk in all that gear!
She kept giving Larry the piggy snoot face for some reason.
Followed by the ‘Dad, do we have to take another picture?’ face. Wait until she gets older…that child hasn’t even begun to be exasperated by her Father…I see plenty of eye rolling in our future.
A quick shot with Mommy. Notice her complete indifference to me. I guess hoping for a picture of the two of us with her smiling my direction or gazing lovingly into my eyes was too much. I should feel lucky she stood by me long enough that both of us actually ended up in the picture.
