i'd say we held up pretty well during "snowmaggeddon" and "snowpocalypse" or whatever you want to call the historic snowstorms we've dealt with over the past week or so. {after loading up on goodies from trader joes, we were good to go.} although, by day four we were pretty stir crazy. federal offices (along with many others) closed halfway through the day on friday, feb. 5 and didn't reopen till friday, feb. 12 we we spent a lot of time indoors altogether. christian didn't know what to do with himself with all of us around full time. his napping schedule was totally off and he lost his appetite for a bit too (although it probably didn't help that during our time indoors he came down with a violent stomach virus that left him puking eight times in one evening).
our parking lot after the second round of snow. not as bad as the first but still pretty bigtime for DC {confession: we got caught without a snow shovel -- we had never needed one before in the four-plus years since we have lived here}
finally, nearly a week after the first snowflake hit the ground, we got some sunshine and stretched our legs a bit
christian was sure anxious to get out. in fact, he REFUSED to come back in once we let him out on the balcony to see the sights
he had no fear of getting around on the snow. even reached his hands out to catch the snow melting off the roof -- till he figured out how cold it was!
