The Governor of Maryland issued a state of emergency on Friday at noon and wanted everyone off the roads by rush hour. I thought that was a little excessive but once the snow started at 1pm on Friday I could see why. We spent the whole weekend snowed in but it was nice to have an excuse to stay home with no where to go. Miller loved everything about the snow and asked to play in it all day. Poor Matthew was sick all weekend so he hasn't had a chance to play in the snow yet. Hoping we can get him out for a little bit today.
I was a little nervous about being stuck inside with two toddlers but it actually wasn't that bad and playing in the snow exhausted Miller so he took great naps and slept well at night. A win win for us.
First snow is our new house
So excited to go play in the snow!
We took him out Saturday during the blizzard so we could start shoveling and he loved every minute of it. We had to drag him in despite it being freezing.
Poor little Matthew had to stay inside and play all weekend. It was actually a good weekend for him to be sick since we didn't have any plans anyway.
I don't think we'll be using our front door until April :( We had no where else to put the snow from the driveway so we had to block the front walkway.
As much as I hate snow and being cold I was got out there to shovel since I figured I would be burning lots of calories and ease the guilt for all the food and alcohol I consumed ;)
On Sunday the conditions were much more bearable so we were able to finish shoveling and our little helper was out there in full force.
In case you missed this video, I can't help but share because his personality and the things he says are so hysterical these days. We have no idea where he get half this stuff!
How was your weekend? Were you snowed in? Did you enjoy it?
Linking up with Biana for Weekending
Woah that's a lot of snow! After last year's winter in Boston, I'm glad we didn't get that much. Just enough to play in the snow! Hope you burned lots of calories! Haha
ReplyDeletePutting the little one to work and he enjoyed it - that's a win!! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteI saw your instagram video of Miller helping out with the snow, he was very helpful ;)
ReplyDeleteDidn't you know, being a mom, drinking alcohol doesn't count ;)

I loved commiserating with you through our snapchats this weekend--it was nice to know we weren't the only ones dealing with this crazy blizzard. Glad you guys made it through ok...even if you can't use your front door for a few months haha
ReplyDeleteI hope Matthew feels better soon!! I cannot believe all the snow you have!! Love your sweet helper!
ReplyDeleteMiller is so cute and I love the Snaps of him! He has the cutest little voice!
ReplyDeleteI love that your little guy was enjoying the shoveling…you should send him my way for and extra set of hands. :) I think my husband and I will be digging forever here in B'more. Although I'm with you on the calorie burning thought…I can enjoy a few glasses knowing I'm doing the hard work later. The quiet days inside have been nice though!
ReplyDeleteWe had a ton of snow too in KY! It was fun for a while but I'm ready for it to go away
ReplyDeleteyour house is gorgeous!! Look at all that snow! I'm jealous, we haven't had any since Christmas.

We got 30 inches in our town too! Craziness! I had fun playing but didn't help with shoveling, though I think our driveway is much shorter ;)
ReplyDeleteYour house is so beautiful and that little picture with the sunglasses on is adorable!
ReplyDeleteWe were definitely snowed in (live in Southern NJ) -- but like you said, it was kind of nice to have the perfect excuse to do next-to-nothing! :) Hope Matthew feels better soon!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I loved that video on IG! SO cute and so hilarious! I can't believe you guys got so much snow, hope you can enjoy it with the boys before it turns to slush!
ReplyDeleteWow! I cannot imagine how much snow that is!! Glad y'all survived being stuck at home all weekend though!! & I just added you on snapchat! I am relearning how to use it bc it's been forever since I was on last! Lol!

That snow was insane!!!!! I thin half of the east coast was snowed in -- but it certainly was fun to be able to just hunker on down at home for a day!
ReplyDeleteHoly moly that's a lot of snow! Your pictures are too cute though!
ReplyDeleteAdorable pictures of your little guy shoveling !!!
ReplyDeleteLook at your little helper! Too cute!!
ReplyDeleteYup 36 inches here in Germantown-uugh! These are the days I am glad I am still in a townhouse with an HOA which means all I have to shovel out is my car.
My daughter got sick 2 days ago- so instead of being able to get out of the house, we are stuck with coughs, sniffles and a mild fever. I was hoping to get out off the house today bbut not looking good.
Beautiful house!
