The cute picture that never was...

Well, here was my intention: be a good mom and get my boy out in the snow. Trouble: housework and baby. So, I think I hit on a solution: bundle Danny up and let him play on the snow on the deck. Works like a charm! I think I'm a genius. Snowpants, boots, hat, gloves, parka...he's warm and cozy and can stay out for a while. Benjamin eats a snack in the high chair, I do dishes and watch Danny and wave at him out the kitchen window. A few minutes go by and I think "Great photo op!". I run upstairs, grab the camera, come downstairs - and see Danny running around in the snow in.....his socks! He's taken his boots off and is walking around, happy as you please, in 2 inches of snow in his socks. So - 5 minutes after this perfect saga began, off come the soaking socks, the coat, the hat, the gloves and the snow pants.

Hence - the beautiful picture you do NOT see today...sigh...well, we're expecting 4-6 inches tomorrow so we'll try again!
