So today was a snow day for us! Actually…school wasn’t officially cancelled or even delayed when it was time to drive to school this morning. I guess you could say I broke the rules a bit by letting my kids stay home. No…I wasn’t trying to be a “cool” mom. That honestly won’t ever happen anyhow. In fact, it was a bit selfish in the sense that I knew the school’s would end up having an early dismissal and I knew I would get NOTHING done if I had to drive them both to school only to go back in a couple hours to pick them up. So we had a snow day in our house! It was well deserved by all three of us! ;o)
So what did we do with our time? Take pics of course! In fact, Peyton and Nina helped me in my office today gathering information for good ol’e tax season that has already begun to approach us! We worked hard. So to relax a bit I wanted to do a mini portrait session with my little guy, since I posted one of Nina a month or so ago and promised one of Peyton soon after. Peyton recently turned 5 years old and we celebrated with Batman themed Duck-pin Bowling Party. It doesn’t get cooler than that folks. Have you ever been Duck-pin Bowling? If not you’re striking out. ;o) Sorry had to say it!
I found Peyt’s Dad’s old Batman costume (hand-stiched might I add) back from when he was younger.Since coincidentally I found it at the time I was planning Peyton’s Batman Party and since he loves his Dad so much, I wanted to grab some shots of him in it. I figured it was appropriate in more ways than one.
So here’s to the return of Batman!
Peyton is a VERY talented artist…
I wasn’t sure how the mini portrait session would go with the way things started out…
but that quickly faded with a little bribery and the mention of something about M&M’s (I KNOW…not what you want to teach your kids. I swear it works for pics though)
Peyton has the cutest pork chop feet. I could eat them up. Hopefully I grow out of this when he gets older!
Check out the stitching on the Batman symbol. Classic.
Complete with a cape!
Since the big brother had the opportunity so must the little munchkie, Nina. She NEVER stops with that thumb!
Hope you all enjoyed your own snow day one way or another!
Happy Thursday!
