Just a quick post to share a photo and video taken this morning. After 19 inches of snow in December and temperatures that never made it out of the single digits earlier this week, it's already 40 today and things are melting big time. That means, of course, that the snow is primed for snowmen. Edward likes snowmen quite a lot, from his Frosty book to his sweater with a big snowman on the front. So, we figured he'd really like the real thing. He was happy to have a new friend, but was insistent that he have a carrot nose. Luckily, we had some.

As for the snowman himself, it's not the most attractive thing in the world, but I haven't made one for at least 25 years, so I'd say it's not a bad first attempt as a Dad, and things can only get better from here.
