Snowy adventures

The recent snow has been really irritating on a morning. Mr B has been parking our car at the top of the estate on an evening and then we've had to walk up there on a morning. Because we leave so early, it's pretty much impossible to get up the hill on fresh snow that hasn't been driven on by anyone else, so parking at the top of the hill is the best option. It does mean that we then have to trek up a hill in the darkness at 7am before getting to our car and desnowing it etc...not the best! Thank goodness for husbands is all I can say; they make great car movers, baby carriers and de-icers!

What I have loved though, are snowy adventures on an afternoon with Henry. It's the first time he's really seen proper snow and has been pointing and shouting 'there' out of the window pretty much constantly for 4 days now! He absolutely loves it. Yesterday Henry and I went for a snowy walk and then for a Starbucks to warm through. He loved being out in the snow and I loved just being with him and watching how magical he found it all.

Today after a nap we went sledging with Daddy too. It turns our another thing daddies are good for is pulling sledges! Henry loved being pulled along in the snow, watching other children flying down the hills and having a little toddle around in the snow with his daddy. We then came home for hot chocolate and snack time before our usual evening routine of dinner, bathtime and bedtime began. It was perfect.
