First Snow

Evan had his first snow experience today. We brought him outside to show him the snow. We have about 1 ½ inches right now. Not enough to make a snowball, but enough to gather some snow in my hand and let Evan experiment. He grabbed a handful of it and Brad and I watched as his face slowly transformed from wonder and curiosity to downright mad. Evans face melted faster than the snow as he realized how cold it was and then just got madder and madder as he continued to hold it. We finally had to pry his hand open to free it of the snow. Apparently the reflex to let go of something uncomfortable doesn’t develop for a couple more years and Evan certainly is not ahead of the curve on that one.
