The Big Chill

Temperatures have really dropped around here this week, we were in the high teens last weekend and then the overnight on Wednesday was a chilly 3 degrees! Most mornings (and even some afternoons!) have been in single digit territory. Clearly this is some form of punishment for the awesome September we just experienced. Even though the forecast shows a slight rebound in the coming days, all of the adults know what this means: winter is right around the corner! So while we enjoy the colourful autumn leaves, we know they will soon be gone and replaced by that first unexpected snowfall where everyone proclaims incredulously, "It's snowing!?", as if this would be the one year that winter decided not to come. Well, in this household, Isabelle and Oliver don't really know what's in store as they haven't fully grasped the timing around season changes yet. (In fact, Isabelle asked tonight if Christmas was tomorrow!). All they know is that it's getting colder and that means we get to go through all the hats and mittens! They had a blast doing this, it's like a dress-up box focused solely on the head and hands! So bring on winter, we're looking forward to sporting all our accessories!
