Snowy Day Fun


Today apparently was the day for our weekly snowstorm. So, for the second time in three weeks, Bible study was canceled and we have been homebound. But, we have had lots of fun so far! We started out the day with some serious college prep reading by the woodstove. ;-) (This is, "The Integration of Psychology and Christianity")



Then we moved on to the even more serious work of motherhood: taking your babies for a walk.
One baby...
Two babies...
Switch places!
After that, it was time for some work in the kitchen. I've been wanting to make play dough for Clara for awhile, and decided to day was the perfect day. My little chef wanna-be loved it! She did try sneaking a couple of bites at first, but was soon convinced that it was, indeed, yucky as Mama had warned her. (No worries though, it was just flour, water, cream of tarter, lots of salt and a little oil and food coloring. Love homemade since I know exactly what's in it!)

  
Next, some personal grooming. Although in reality Clara hates having her nails clipped, pretending to clip them herself is tons of fun! She did this for 15-20 minutes, saying "clip, clip" the whole time!

Trimming those toenails...

Already multitasking ;)
Then it was time for a yummy lunch of peanut butter balls, carrot-raisin-flax muffin and more grapes than I can imagine fitting in her stomach! Now she's down for a nap and I am folding laundry and working on an apple pie. Mmm...

What are your favorite snowy (or otherwise inclement weather) day activities?
