Snow!!!

Today we had the first snow fall. Proper snow that you could actually make snowballs out of. Happy happy happy and much later dinner than usual as later outdoor play was "needed".

Very happy Adam playing in the snow for the very first time.

Watch out for the snowball fight!

Cold weather, finally

The weather has finally cleared, and the temperature has dropped below zero. We're currently at -6 C and a crystal clear night with a full moon lighting the landscape. Magic.
This morning, on our way to day care, Hugo stepped on the ice that had formed on a puddle. When the ice cracked, he was completely awestruck. "Daddy, it's ice!". This revelation was then the conversation topic with the teachers that morning. Quite amusing to see him experiencing his first real winter.

Äntligen lite kallt och klart vinterväder. Minus sex och en fullmåne som lyser upp landskapet ger det hela en lätt magisk känsla.
I morse när vi gick till dagis klev Hugo på en vattenpöl som hade frusit. När isen sprack utbrast han med ett förvånat uttryck i ansiktet "Pappa, det är is!". Denna revolutionerande upptäckt var senare det som diskuterades med fröknarna. Det är onekligen ganska kul att se honom uppleva sin första riktiga vinter.
