Snow Day!!!

So it's been a little colder and snowing a lot here in the BIG city!!! So we decided to finally post pictures of Ethan playing in the snow with his best buddy, daddy!!! This was between christmas and just before Steve had to go back to school. Thanks to Sharifa's parents we were able to get Ethan out into the snow and we're sure glady that they were willing to let have their sled and finding Ethan some snow-pants!! That was a fun day and we're glad we got to do that!! Ethan really loved to walk around in the snow and had lots of fun!! Ethan and Sharifa are going up to her parents' house next weekend and Ethan might get to play in the snow with Grandma and Grandpa McClaskey, that is if there is going to be any snow. We're just so excited to be seeing them 'cause it's been a while since the last time we were able to see them!
Getting ready to go out and play in the snow!!!

Daddy was making snowball and throwing them at Ethan, he thought is was very funny!!

Just having fun walking in the snow!!!

Here is a video of Ethan and Steve having fun on the sled!!! If you listen very closely you can hear Steve ask Ethan if he wants to go again and Ethan will say 'yes'!!!

At the end of a few sled rides down the hill, Ethan loved to hold his daddy tight!

Ethan posing for the camera on his new sled!! Isn't he just a cutie!!!

At the end of the day we were still happy and ready to have a rest/nap!!!
