So much strapping and unstrapping. So much work for such a simple outing. This morning my body aches all over. My back hurts more than it did after my first time snowboarding. I don't know how we're going to do it all over again today but we must. It may be an Arctic freeze out there but life goes on. If you live somewhere where there are palm trees - I kind of resent you today. My apologies.

I feel your pain!
With the 2 boys (1 & 3) it takes what seems like years to get out of the house.
Please Spring, hurry.

Oh my I am right there with you. At least you are getting out a bit. I'm staying in, getting cabin fever and going crazy. I can't imagine staying home with kids further up north. yikes!
At least you have a car. Imagine taking the metro?! And wait til you have 2 kids. It's worse.
Having a baby makes me hate winter...
These days I have to dress up my 2-year old, strap her in the stroller, walk 10 minutes to the daycare, unstrap her, undress her at daycare, walk to metro, walk to the office.... and I am 7-month pregnant!!! Oh joy.
I'd stay in the house for a couple of days if I were you... Without any guilt trip ;-)
Je vis à Los Angeles. Désolée.
J'ai passé Noël au Québec avec ma fille de 10 mois et ce fut l'enfer de dealer avec l'habit de neige... Je vous lève mon chapeau!
Yes, but your hair looks amazing! ;)
BTW,I dressed my 37lb 2 year old for yoga and then lunch today and am thinking of skipping our plan for a swim later. Too. Much. Work!
This made me chuckle, feel bad for you, and miss you all at the same time.
honestly, I don't know if I would even dare leave the house with 2 kids! WOW - kudos to those of you who make it happen!
Gets easier as they grow older! My kids, 7, 9 and 12, now get dressed all by themselves !!! What a blessing ! As for my 20 year old, well... Apart from asking for lifts, he's pretty much ''autonome" ;)
Hang in there !
Love you blog xxx
ahahaha! Good work :-)
Actually was a bit lame and just decided to stay in all day with both kids. Dunno what's worst (a 3-yr-old actually needs to go outside to get his sillies out or-else he came maybe become a little bit of a pain in the ---)...
Mon bébé de 4 semaines est bien au chaud dans son petit coulou mais, malheureusement, il fait trop froid pour aller marcher dehors!
Lucca didn't go to pre school yesterday because i didn't have it in me to dress/undress strap/unstrap 2 kids..... bad habits are fostered early..... oops.
