Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

This past weekend we got our first snowfall.  I think our area had about 8 inches or so that came down.  It was that very heavy wet snow so it was good packing snow.  It snowed Friday night and pretty much all day on Saturday.  When Nate and I got up on Saturday I couldn't help but put him in his snowsuit my mom got him and prop him up on the deck!  He was too cute and didn't seem to mind....only when the huge wet snowflakes got in his eyes, he didn't really know what that was!
This is Nate in the window getting his first look at snow!

Hanging out in his bouncy watching the snow fall.

This is a pic from a week ago when there was no snow and just a nice fall day...Nate loves to be outside and is the happiest when we are outside or just anywhere doing something. 
My mom came up this past weekend for a big craft fair that's held every spring and fall.  My friend Mary came along with her son Finn and mom Kathy.  Finn is 3 months old and Nate had been donating his clothes to Finn to wear, but Finn is a champ eater and has caught up to Nate in baby clothes size!  Here's Finn showing Nate how to eat like a man!
The wonderful thing about this giant craft fair is that they also sell beer and wine....this is what originally got me to start going to this craft fair a few years ago, but lo and behold I have become a crafter myself and tend to buy more than my mom and sister do, crazy I know.  Don't worry I still enjoy the beverages and we had a good time with our photos and shocking the crafter ladies with my baby strapped to my chest and beer in hand!


Now that's just what I call classy.  Not to worry we only had one beer....keep in mind we were there for about 5 hours....I'm not kidding, the fair is huge!
Nate and Finn were champs the whole time we were there.  Finn mostly napped and Nate was either carried, hanging out in his stroller, or strapped to my chest.  However, having a baby strapped to your chest at a craft fair with a million women opens yourself up for TONS of random conversations and ladies wanting to touch the baby, ask questions, interact, and tell you how cute he is.  Not my favorite thing but my lovely sister likes to watch me squirm away from strangers. 
Here's a montage of trying to get a picture of the grandmas trying to pose with the boys...didn't go too well!







Yah, we tried.  Nate was too interested in touching Finn or trying to hold his hands.  Soon enough Nate and you'll be good buds!  It was a fun weekend of snow and crafts!
