The incredulous tone, the wide eyes, the expression of disbelief...as if to say, "how, WHY would anyone live in this place year round??!!" Longtime Islanders has experienced the question so many times I imagine everyone has their practiced and witty response. I however do not. Yet. Maybe next summer when I field the question countless times I'll just write down the link to this blog post.

Going to play group:

Having family movie night:

Making funny faces:


Organizing Mommy's shoes:

Taking long baths:

Standing unassisted:

Watching the snow fly:

Having a dance party wearing Daddy's socks:
Practicing walking in the snow:
To borrow a phrase from Calvin and Hobbes, the days are just packed.
