Warmer Weather

Two weeks ago, on a Sunday afternoon, it hit 40 degrees outside so we headed out on our first walk as a family of four.

 

Big Boy decided to taste the snow all on his own.  His conclusion was, "Mmmm! Snow! Snack!"

He loves cars, trucks, and construction vehicles, but lately this front end loader has been his favorite toy.  He specifically asks us to find this one for him by saying, "Eeng! Eeng! Eeng!" which is one of the construction vehicle noises from one of his favorite books.

(By the way, please let me know if you see this exact front end loader in a store!  Momma and Daddy lost it last week and he still asks for it a couple of times a day).

After pushing his truck for a while, he decided to be the truck!

And this little lady enjoyed her walk outside with the family.

Big Boy and his front-end loader

My Big Boy could play with his front-end loader all day long.  Even when we aren't actually out in the snow, he's loading the bucket up with a pair of his small socks and telling me it's snow.  On this day, he spent 45 minutes happily loading his construction vehicle up with real snow and finding places to dump it.  He would have continued but it was time for dinner.
