I am really perfecting the art of the Lazy Sunday. Killing it, really.
But my spouse had to lie down with the maniac toddler to get him to nap on Sunday (and he deserved a nap anyway), so I went against my typical lazy tendencies and took the big boys outside. Apparently it was super duper cold (like 1 degree Fahrenheit) but it didn't feel that bad out of the wind. The littlest big boy lasted 40 minutes before he fell victim to the cold and warmed up in the entryway. I'm not sure the biggest one could ever actually get cold, but we went in after 53 minutes. .
And I didn't hate it! Playing isn't really my thang, especially when that playing involves many layers and constant snot dripping out of all the noses, mine included. But we climbed the big plow hills and made a couple snowmen, thanks to the pre-made chunks of snow on said plow hills. I pulled them around in their sleds, and had way more fun than I expected.
It's really a good thing I have children who sometimes force me out of my slothful ways. Truth be told, though, #2 and I snuggled on the couch and watched football for the rest of the afternoon, so I didn't turn in my Most Active Mother of the Year application just yet.
