January in Vermont so far has been downright cold, snowy, and sometimes just plain freezing. But we are managing to find fun things to fill the time and even starting to enjoy the winter weather. Here's a few things we've done so far:
Many Saturdays we take a trip to nearby Rutland to go to Walmart. Many times that means we get to eat out or have some other type of treat. This particular Saturday we enjoyed frozen yogurt at Yogurt City! (The girls chose some type of red cupcake flavored yogurt!)
We got out the balls from the ball pit Leah got on her 2nd birthday-- I don't think we've gotten them out since then! We filled up our kiddie pool for several days worth of fun in the ball pit!
Leah and Andrew are starting to really get interested in board games. We try to play when we can. They love Candy Land, Trouble, Uno, Sequence, and several others!
We went to a friend's Frozen-themed birthday party, where Andrew-- the only boy there-- won a game of musical chairs! They all got to wear Princess costumes.
Usually we go to the library once a week. We love that the kids don't have to be quiet! They have tons of ways for them to be creative. Leah and Andrew like putting on puppet shows, dressing up, coloring, and playing with the train set.
And this past Saturday, Abigail got her first real haircut. We didn't have a special place to take her, I just decided I was tired of not seeing her eyes so we took her to the local MasterCuts in the mall. Probably not the most memorable of places, but she did so great! She sat perfectly quiet and still the whole time, just watching the lady cut her hair. We didn't get much off, but got her bangs trimmed and a little off the back. She wouldn't look at me once it was all said and done so I didn't get a great "after" picture!
