We got another big snow! We were all SO excited to get out and play!
This snow wasn't very good for making a snowman; it was very fine and powdery. Everyone got to go sledding!
Even though this blog is about E, I feel it's necessary to highlight E's little sister, Vivian, here too. Last snow she really didn't get to experience it much.
This was a short excursion...Viv got a faceful of snow and managed to lose her gloves. Crying ensued.
Not sure how much she enjoyed this.
Most of the sledding was with me, but here is E and Jason. Look how E stands up while Daddy brings up the sled!
Our Snowgirls
And the ALMOST GREATEST SNOW VID TO DATE: E sledding by herself! Well...almost. She totally did this hill right before I ran in the house to get Jason to film another attempt. It looks like I set E up to fail, but HONESTLY the previous run (E's first ever with this sled), E sat on this little saucer and held on to the handles the whole way down, including a full spin. She wanted to try it, she DID it, she was SO unbelievably proud of herself (as was I)! So, we tried it again...which is this clip. Undeterred, E wanted to try it again. That ended up much like this clip. Then we went in to warm up.

Mission Statement
No one plans, or expects, to have a child with a disability. When this happened to us, we started a desperate search to find information relating to milestones or expectations for our daughter after her diagnosis. Most of this was fruitless. My hope is for this site to help any person or parent in a situation similar to ours.

That's awesome - not sure what the problem was with the last sledding run - my girls and I tip the sled just about every time too! Isn't that half the fun of sledding :)
