Another cold snap, and a bit of snow and ice hit Vermont this week. This couldn't keep Emma down, as she spent a lot of her time bundled up enjoying the brisk air. Who would have thought bubble blowing was an activity for 20 degree temperatures? Emma came up with the idea one day after day care, asking Daddy to come join the fun.
Continuing with the Dr. Seuss theme, Nana Hoover sent Emma a package that included this book. Emma loved it, and it's only served to motivate her to go see the movie again. Looks like the power of both Nana's has hammered home her love of the good doctor.
Thursday evening, a snowfall of about 3" blanketed our land.
"I'm gonna get you Daddy!"
Saturday morning we also found that the low temps created just enough icy coating for Emma to get in some sledding. She did a great job, bravely conquering the hill by her self, and walking up on her own with a little prompting.
Saturday afternoon, Emma attended the 4th birthday part of her friend Will Murphy. It was an "Avatar" themed party, and very boy-oriented. Emma held her own, though she stayed out of the wrestling and co-pooping that the little men got into (thank God!). She also showed, yet again, what a little mother hen/caretaker she is, helping Will's grandma lay his younger brother James down for a nap. She was covering him with his blanket, and asking him if he liked potatoes. She know nothing soothes an infant like talking about starches.

A little "Pin the Arrow on the Avatar"
We stuck around for a bit after the party, hanging out with the Murphy clan and playing outside with Emma and Will. Their smiles here are from Daddy demanding neither look at him. How cute?
