Snow day

Some snow fell yesterday..and it was the snowman making kind.  I was being lazy and promised Jackson we could do it tomorrow, and when we woke up to our suprise, even MORE snow. 
So after numerous amounts of coffee, and a little procrastinating, I got the energy up to get the kids dressed to go out. Jackson isn't really tough to get dressed, but the constant "mommy" drives me to the brink sometimes.  Its more my sweet Sadie who makes me not want to even try!  She has a hard time getting dressed in general, so i know getting her dressed for snow would be a nightmare.  With craig out snowblowing everyones driveways i was left to go it alone.  Sadie was now full blown naked, and i was 1/2 dressed and Jackson had everything on, ready to go out.  Now i'm being pulled in 2 different directions.  Which would be worse, letting my 4 year old outside alone or leaving my 2.5 year old alone in the house?!?!?!  I opted with leaving my 2 year old in the house...i can hear the BOO's!!!!!!!!  I know, i'm a horrible mother!  but i just didn't want to deal with that, and Jax was out having a ton of fun calling my name...so i left, and when i came back 30seconds later to peek in the window, Sadie was just sitting on the spare carseat naked, singing to herself.  She really cared!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????  Whose child is this?  So after peeking in on her for about 15min, she finally came to the door and said she was ready to get dressed.
So now i had to leave Jax outside while i now walked inside to get her dressed, trying my hardest not to get my floors soaked...They wound up soaked.
Now she is finally dressed.  We go outside and Jax is all pumped ot make a snowman.  O.M.G.  The new snow?  yeah, it was of the fluffy variety.  I coudln't even make a golfball sized snowball with it. I felt horrible with all the promising of making one "tomorrow".  Ah well..so we made do, and Jax was totally satisfied with what i came up with. 


but sadie, not so much.

Then I asked craig if we coudl take them sledding since we were already dressed and outside.  And in true lazy man fashion, he said "its not a good sledding day, because its fresh snow".  I don't know about you, but this was the perfect time for sledding so you weren't getting grass burns from the snow being beaten down from so many sledders!  So i said fine, maybe tomorrow.
Then i take my 2 snowmen inside, get them totally undressed, hanging up wet clothes to dry all over the house, put on yet another cup of coffee, and STOMP STOMP, sniff sniff.  Its craig at the door, "c'mon kris, lets go sledding, you're right its a great time for it"  AAAAAAAAAAAH...WTF?  I jsut pointed to the clothes strewn all over the house and boots everywhere...And said i just got them undressed!  i mean, really? 
but an hour later, i had perked back up with my coffee, and we went thru it all over again, though the kids were a little on the cranky side now since it was later in the day.  But we got to the library where they have a great hill for smaller kids, and we were the first ones down!!!!  Jackson LOVED it. thought it was awesome.  Sadie went down once with me, and that was it. She dind't cry, but she certainly didn't go again.  And our snow day turned out to be a good one!
now i'm just trying to get warm, dry the clothes and gather the engery for our next outing...forecast for tomorrow?  SNOW
