71.3 inches!!!

Philly got its record snowfall ever this year...I haven't seen it snow more than 3 inches in our 3 winters here. We were ill-prepared for a cumulative snowfall of 6 feet so far this year!

We have LOVED the snow! The city shuts down, and we have relished having Brandon snowed in with us. We've been snowed in a total of 5 days this winter. Let it snow!!!

While the storm raged outside...

Ketty and Tanny got a front row view...

We had a hard time finding our car...
Meanwhile...

Watching our neighbor's dog play in the snow...
Brandon decided to make a snow fort for the boys to play in...

Brandon was determined to get the Subaru out without shoveling. I was doubtful, however...

The 4 wheel drive pulled through! Brandon victoriously placed our chair to save the parking spot. (The mayor said saving spots should be respected!)

To baby-proof or not?

When I baby-proofed our kitchen I didn't baby proof this cupboard so the boys would have a cupboard to play in. This lasted a week before the fighting over cabinet occupation became unbearable and we were forced to child-proof it.

After the child lock was on, I opened the cupboard for them to play in while I made dinner. Moments later I heard muffled squeals and banging. Ketty had shut the cabinet door on Tanny, and he was stuck inside. Needless to say, we haven't been playing in this cupboard much lately!

Ketty's getting into tackle position-- we're experienced at putting one hand on the collar while the other hand pulls his arm to the floor. Little league, here we come!

Playing Around...

We're silly, silly boys...and we love to entertain ourselves and our parents!
