Grey's First Time Sledding!
He is the CUTEST thing in his little snow pants, which I’m pretty sure were a hand-me-down from our neighbor. So was his coat. And the sled was one we got for cheap, poking around our friend’s stuff before their yard sale began. Thank goodness for free stuff, so that when we do need to get him a good piece of gear, we don’t feel as bad getting him good quality stuff. Like his Merrell Toddler Snow Boots which are truly waterproof and insulated, plus easy to get on and off. ESSENTIAL, since getting him layered up for a snowy winter outing takes FOREVER!
Well, we got him in his base layers and his over layers and his mittens and his wool socks and his sunglasses and beanie… we drove just a few blocks away to a little sledding hill behind the local middle school… I even waxed the bottom of the sled for maximum velocity… and Grey HATED it!
It probably didn’t help that on his first run down with Dada, they spun all crazy which might have scared him. Mama wasn’t much better because I made him go down several more times to see if I could show him how fun it was. Nope, still not fun.
He was really only happy when we stopped to watch a flock of geese land nearby.
