Snow Day!!!

So we were supposed to be off to Iowa today, but instead we were snowed in due to a cancelled flight out of JFK airport! We made the most by relaxing and enjoying the day together around the house:)

We started off the morning by digging through our cabinets searching for some food to eat (since we have very little as we thought we were going out of town). Aiden had banana oatmeal, Chris had Cheerios, and I had some tasty hot chocolate...which was perfect with the snowy view from our windows.

After we enjoyed some relaxing around the house this morning, Chris headed out to dig us out of the massive snow. Thank goodness for a random act of kindness from a stranger with a snowplow-it made Chris' job a lot easier! Aiden woke up from his nap, had a morning snack of peas (seriously I don't understand why he loves peas so much...and that's the only veggie he seems to like), we headed out for his first play in the snow. Pictures are below! Aiden seemed to enjoy the snow as much as Mommy does-nice to look at, but who likes to be all bundled up to play in something so cold??? I am sure as he gets older, he will enjoy it more, but this year we lasted all of ten minutes!

The rest of the day was spent playing toys around the house, MarioKart action for Chris and I, and a nice dinner out at the Chinese place across the street.
Hopefully we are off to Iowa tomorrow and will post more from there (including some birthday pictures), but until then here are some pictures from our big snowstorm:
Knee Deep in Snow
This stuff is so cold!
Okay, I've had enough Mom!
All the way up to our mailbox!!!
