1st Snow!

This afternoon started the first snow of the year! It's still coming down pretty steadily so we'll see what this does to the crazy NC roadways (they really lack the ability to clean things up well, here). Logan was napping when it started and the forecast called for light flurries so I thought she'd miss it, but it only got harder and harder so when she woke up we bundled her up and took her out. Her reaction?

She thought milk was coming out of the sky. As soon as we walked out she got really excited and in her most high pitched voice started to shout, "Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, MOK! (milk)" I love that her little 2 year old brain put together the fact that milk is white and wet and so is snow, so milk must have been falling out of the sky. As soon as she walked out and got a taste of it though, she changed her mind and said it was ice instead. At least she's enjoying the snow this year...last year you couldn't keep her in it for too long--she wasn't amused at all by it.

Little snow bunny:

Finally, after refusing to wear gloves all day, she decided that it was ok to wear them so she could dust the stairs off.

I wish I had gotten her initial reaction on video, but I knew my camera didn't have a whole lot of juice and wanted to make sure to get a few pictures first (in fact, some of the pictures came from a neighbor's camera because I did lose battery). I did manage to catch a clip of her in the snow, though, before it died. She was very, very, very concerned about what was happening to the car.
