Waddling in a Winter Wonderland

An inch or two of snow today made it completely necessary to dress Ellie up in this:

And watch her attempt to get around in it:


She did rather impressively.




How freakishly adorable is it that she's practically as wide as she is tall in this getup?! :-)


Unrelated -- on Saturday night BOTH of my kids were asleep by 7PM . . . shortly followed by their mother, who was out at 7:20. Par-tay animals. (Of course, my horrifically vivid 'must-be-directed-by-Quentin-Tarantino' pregnancy nightmares filled with zombies, mass murders, alien take overs and bloody deaths tend to wake me up several times a night anyway . . . I need to crash by that time if I want an eight hour night!)

Is that how it's supposed to fit or did you buy a 2T snowsuit and stuff it with newspaper? :)
She is adorable! I love all the pictures of snow-eating. Ah, childhood. How I miss it.

Hahahahaha! That's so awesome.

Connor woke up this morning with, "OOH IT SNOWED!!! Can we go eat it?!" Apparently he and Annie are on the same wavelength on this one.

Ellie looks like one of two things

1. The little brother from A Christmas Story.

2. Or that blow Grizzly mascot thing that get tall and short.

Either way, she looks adorable.

It's supposed to be an 18-24 month outfit -- which is bigger than Ellie wears, but it actually fits her fairly well! :-) I got it last year at the D.I. for $3, it was new with tags and everything -- the funny thing is I already had a snow suit in this size from Annie, but I couldn't resist this one! And in some of the wide shots it worked like camo, if Ellie's back was to me, you could barely tell where she was! :-)

How fun to play in the snow. I don't miss it that much. I am cold and its only 70 degrees here. Aww, I won't rub it in. I love Annie's get up. She looks like that kid in A Christmas Story.

Ellie remindes me of Maggie on the Simpsons when she has her star winter outfit on:) It looks warm, I need one. I'm sorry about your dreams, that is awful. I bet they go away when you find out if it's a boy or a girl. Maybe it's the pressure of not knowing?

Soooo cute!!! Your little girl reminds me of the boy in Christmas Story when he's all decked out too! But she is way cuter ;)
