Playing in the snow...again!

We are still loving playing in the snow! This afternoon Tessa and I went outside sledding and asked our neighbor if it was okay that Tessa and I use the side of their little hill that faces our house. She of course was completely fine with it. But about ten minutes later she came back over by us while laughing and said she wasn't sure who was having more fun...me or Tessa. I do love sledding. It's one of those things that really brings the kid out in you. So needless to say that we had a fun afternoon of sledding...and yes, Tessa had fun too!

Not too much is new with our family. Nolan and Tessa are both doing great. Nolan is changing soooo quickly. Tessa still is growing and changing quickly but it's definitely slowed down. Nolan is at the stage where he does something new every day. We are waiting for him to start talking more but for now it's just the cute baby talk. He does say "mama", "dada", "tessa", and of course a few other basics, but I do think that is first word was touchdown (and of course daddy was pleased with this!). Nolan is starting to walk everywhere and just this weekend picked up running. It's quite the site to see but he's always trying to keep up with Tessa. He absolutely loves Tessa and 95% of the time, she loves him too:)

Below are a few pics from today. We had a fun day playing in the snow. We had to get out and enjoy it before the cold comes. Yes, today was around 30 and it felt really nice out. Oh yeah, of course I can't forget...GO Packers!



Tessa and I made a race track around the driveway. We had a fun time playing all different types of games in our track:)

When Nolan came out to play with us (after he took his nap) he also loved playing in our race track. He was a little stumped on where to go when he got to the snow pile that blocked the track. How in the world is he going to get over that big hill? It was pretty cute.
Tessa actually would have fallen asleep outside. It was a very peaceful afternoon with a beautiful light snow falling on us. Truthfully...I kind of wanted to do the same thing:)
