September 26th was the day the snow first fell...thus marking the beginning of winter for us. Today, as Gavin was getting his 'snow boots', coat, hat and scarf on to go for a short walk outside- JB informed me that it was only 34 F outside and it really wasn't that cold. He then proceeded to remind me that it will get 70 degrees colder outside before we hit the lowest temps we're likely to see this winter! 70 more degrees, really!!!??So...what do you do when it gets cold outside?
Learn to play hockey! Gavin has been wanting to learn to ice skate for some time now- and when we learned that there are no soccer programs for kids under 7, we started to look around for other options to help Gavin "expend some extra energy." What did we find out? There is a sports 'school' for children a few blocks from our house that offers beginning skating and hockey for children starting at 3 yrs old!!! So... as soon as we get Gavin his own skates he'll be on his way to becoming the next Mario Lemieux! lol.
And of course, no post would be complete without a photo of Carter... Here his is learning to feed himself and very proud of his new found mess-making skills!
