How much fun is having a kid?

Seriously, they make everything way more fun. Well, maybe not sitting on your butt and reading for the whole day, or watching a movie on a rainy afternoon, or shopping for 6 hours... but they make you see the world in a different way.

Like those who know me, know I don't like winter. There's no outdoor sports that I'm into, I hate being cold and I hate my nose running. So really, what else is there besides that to winter? Now that Carson is here, I love looking outside with him and seeing his expression when he sees everything covered in snow. We got all bundled up and went outside for a bit earlier today and it was amazing to see winter through his eyes. And he's not even big enough to enjoy snow for what it's really made for (snowmen, forts, snowballs, igloos...). I was so excited to get dressed up and take him outside, whereas in previous years I absolutely dread the first snowfall.




After a while though, he was starting to get a little weary of all this white stuff.


These were just taken inside while we were goofing around - how cute is he?
