LET IT SNOW!

January is almost halfway gone-this year has already gotten ahead of me.  We are so blessed to be a family of four.  A year ago I would have laughed if someone told me we would welcome 2009 as a family with two girls! Some of my favorite moments are watching Aaliyah share her world with Gabrielle.  Today Aaliyah introduced Gabby to sledding! 


We got our first real snow storm of the year.  (And season!)  Aaliyah has been a little apprehensive about being outside in the cold, but today was an exception.  She had a great time. Gabrielle got her first look and feel of this "frozen white stuff," and didn't seem all that impressed or bothered.  But then again she was outside for all of ten minuets.  I told Aaliyah that she could try a bite of snow, so she tried to catch it on her tongue- then she realized that she could get it off the ground. Then she realized that she could THROW! the snow!  It was a fun afternoon.
