Snow day with my new Camera!!

KC finally got some snow on Monday (thankfully Brian is off on Mondays so I was the only one that had to venture out to work that day). My camera arrived during the day (Canon Rebel T2i) and I was super excited to use it that evening. Brian went outside to shovel and Colin and I got bundled up to "help out". After the 15 minutes it took to get everyone ready, we headed out the door.

The camera is awesome! It takes pictures very quick without any pause between when I push the button and when the shutter goes off. I am able to zoom in really close to get some great quality close-up pictures. I was just so tired of getting pictures of the back of Colin's head or 2 seconds after the cute pose was over. Hopefully that will happen a lot less frequently now!

Brian and Colin ready to go outside and shovel some snow!

Colin with his dustpan "shovel" and Daddy.

It's so hard to get back up after you fall down with all your snowgear on. Probably doubled his weight with all the puffy clothes he had on!

Shoveling is fun!

One of my favorites of Colin that I took that day

Eating some snow...actually, Colin ate quite a bit of snow that day. No yellow snow to be seen!

Another one of my favorites!

Taking a break from the work

Yummy snow!

Daddy teaching Colin how to make snow angels. He wanted nothing to do with it!

Back hard at work. Pretty much just making a mess of what Daddy just shoveled.

When it was time to go inside...meltdown-city!! Colin threw a huge fit!! He cried for some time until I reminded him he was going to get in the bath and that helped (he loves bathtime!) His poor little toes and fingers were frozen, but I thought it was a small victory that he even kept his mittens on this time.

After bathtime...naked Colin running around the house. What a crazy kid!
