We had a good but cold start to the New Year. Texas had one
really cold weekend where the entire weekend was below freezing where we stayed
inside all weekend and I passed on an activity that my mom did with us down to
Tess. We made Ice Ornaments, before Tess went to bed we got everything ready
and set the Water outside so that it would freeze overnight and make the Ice
Ornaments. The first attempt didn’t go as smoothly as planned but by the second
time we made some pretty cool ornaments and she was asking when we could make
them again.
On one of the colder weekends we took Tess to the mall so
she could run out some of her energy in their indoor play place. She loves
running around and climbing on all the different obstacles, we have also taken
her to the trampoline park so she can bounce out her energy.
Another indoor activity that comes around in the winter is
the boat show, which for Tess turned into the RV show. She wanted to walk into
every RV and picked out just the right one that we were going to move into. She
picked out the perfect place for all her toys and she knew exactly where all
her puppies were going to be sleeping. She was a little upset when we told her
that we weren’t buying one and that we weren’t planning on moving. She was
thinking we were going house shopping at the boat show.
Most of the time during January and early February we try as
much as we can to find indoor activities that Tess will enjoy that will get us
out of the house and burn some energy off. Even though Christmas is my favorite
time of year it falls in my least favorite season, I hate the cold. What I hate
more than the cold is having a toddler in the cold because when it’s cold you
want to stay in bed and not get out from your warm bed, toddlers don’t understand
this concept and need to be constantly moving.
