"We don't have to think up a title 'til we get the ... book written." — Carl Sandburg

I wanted to start a blog to share stories about my son with family and friends. I spent hours brainstorming a blog title that works for my 1-year-old and that will still work when he is 8 or 15. It is so amazing to realize that as much as I love this child, I barely know the person he will become. His future is so full of possibilities.... And so we won't limit him with a title on his blog.

We got real snow this weekend! Click here to check out our pictures.

I was such a great mama: I called my mama to find out how to make snow ice cream. Early in the day, I mixed 1 cup of half & half, 1 cup of sugar and 1 tablespoon of vanilla. I heated it on the stove just long enough to melt the sugar and then I put that in the fridge. I put out three pans to collect clean snow. Later in the day, we mixed it all together. What a great mama, right?

Tyler refused to try it and Brian didn't like it.

But that is okay. I loved it!

And we all had a great day, playing together inside and outside in the snow.
