Cabin Fever.

Over the weekend, we got a foot of snow and some major snowdrifts.

(Okay, maybe not this much.)

First major snowstorm of the winter? Normally, this would warrant a "sa-weeeeeet" from me.

However, it also happened to occur right before I had the Toddler for three days straight. A Toddler who also shared her cold with us. With all of us sniffling, cars getting stuck all over the place, and temperatures below hideous, we have been
stuck
in
side
for way too long.

Luckily the roads are clearing up as snowplows make the rounds. Does this mean a trip to the grocery store? my hopeful little heart wonders.

And I'm not the only one.
Yesterday, the Toddler saw the stroller in the closet, reminiscent of our afternoon walks outside when your snot wouldn't freeze to the sides of your nostrils the moment you stepped outdoors.
"Walk? Walk??" she asked.
"No, it's too cold outside, sweetie."
And at that, this normally very level-headed baby-kid burst into tears, beside herself that we couldn't go "ooooussiiiiiide."

But oh boy, do I ever know exactly how she feels...
