Let in Snow...in October?

Mom and Dad aren't too excited to be posting about the first snow of the season, especially since we haven't even reached Hallowe'en yet. Isabelle, on the other hand, is over the moon about the snow's arrival. She shrieked with delight this morning when she saw the snow-covered streets, and had ample opportunity to play in the white stuff today. Two hours outside at school, christening her snow pants for the year and riding around in a sled with Logan, then some fun time in the front yard with her Mom and Dad at the end of the day. Her Mom showed her how to make her first snowball, let's hope tomorrow's day at school doesn't involve Isabelle passing on this information to the rowdier kids in the class! She has her own pronunciation of the word though, she can say "SSSSS" and she can say "No", but ask her to say snow and she says "toe". Given how last year went in Ottawa, we assume she will have plenty of practice with the word in the coming months and will get it nailed down soon enough!

Where did this stuff come from?



Look Mommy, look Daddy, Toe!



One small step for Isabelle...



Snowball fight!



It's not as much fun when you fall down.

Cutest little snowbunny that I've ever seen! You should have seen my face when the first snow picture appeared, I believe that HORRIFIED would be the description!!! Yikes!

So the little lion will need winter boots tomorrow... she can be Aslan from Narnia, wasn't there a big snow part in it?
