It has been a long, cold winter here in St. Louis this year and I doubt it is going to be over any time soon. I’m not a big fan of the cold as it is (I know weird given that I grew up in Canada!!) but when you add a restless toddler into the mix it can make it feel like these cold winter days drag on forever. There are only so many inside activities I have up my sleeve.
Luckily Maya is pretty easily entertained. She plays well by herself so I can get a few things done around the house. And since her favorite activities include coloring, reading and playing with her her dollhouse it has made it fairly simple to keep her entertained. Although, I think we are both ready for the warm weather to get here so we can head outside again.
Yesterday was a stay home all day kind of day. We partook in our usual activities of coloring rainbows, jumping on the bed and playing with Maya’s my little ponies. After nap time Maya decided it would be fun to get out all of the scarves and winter hats and have a little dress up session. She had so much fun. Sometimes the most simple things become the most fun.
And this is my new favorite photo






Yep, it’s funny, isn’t it? As parents, we get all excited about gifts and they’d rather play with the packaging. Life is so simple and uncluttered when you’re little.
Love the hat/scarf..
