I came prepared to play in the snow with the kids today and it was perfect weather for it. I built a snowman which Maddie promptly wanted to knock down and when I instructed her not to, her comeback was "Jenie knock it down". It was still standing when I left this afternoon. The kids also have this obsession with eating snow (especially the youngest). Really, every time I turned around, one of them was picking up a new chunk of snow and munching on it. Personally, I'd rather play in it. I have added a few captions to some of the photos below to add to the comedy of the day.

It's my fault they eat snow. When I was preggers with Maddie, I had an intense craving for crushed ice and snow. I ate it every chance I got. It set a bad example for the older kids, and clearly made it's mark on Maddie's biology. She's a wholesome version of a crack baby.
