So, Annie's pretty much obsessed with eating snow right now. Loves it. Her little hands are pretty much constantly frozen and red because of her snow eating addiction. I personally am down with a little snow eating . . . even indulge myself, from time to time. We're working on the 'clean snow vs. dirty snow' concept with Annie. Apparently we have a lot more work to do, since as we were walking back to our car in the Deseret Book parking lot, Annie let go of my hand, and before I could stop her, grabbed a little fistful of black slush and shoved it in her mouth. Ewwwwww. Ewwww. Kinda threw up a little in my mouth just thinking about it again! I guess it could've been worse.

yum! It's like an exhaust-flavored snow cone!! Just make sure she knows that yellow snow does NOT taste like lemonade... or maybe she'll have to unfortunately figure that out on her own someday...
I had kids trying to knock yellow icicles off a roof today...why they were yellow I will never know for sure, but they were down to eat them at ten years old!
Oh gross. I LOVE eating snow too and have taught Weston the delicious habit, but the other day when there was only about 1/2 an inch of snow on the car he went out there and swiped some up and put it in his mouth. We had a little talk about why that wasn't clean snow. :) Ahh . . . kids.
We have that obsession too! Claire eats it off of her boots after we get in the car. I'm not thrilled about it.
I try to get pictures of her playing in the snow, but all she does is lean over and play with it. All of our pictures have a hand in the mouth, and the other gathering the next bite.
Thanks for the reference, Hil. Whatever won't kill 'em only makes 'em stronger, right?
