First snow today .... it's going to be a long winter!

I live in WI so it gets pretty cold here and I'm NOT a big fan of winter to begin with. I'm a SAHM and I'm already starting to feel the walls closing in. I'm at a loss at how I'm going to get through this winter w/o going stir crazy. I seemed to have lost touch with all my g/f since having the boys; even the ones that have LO's themselves. So playdates are few and far between for my boys. Last year was easy because they were newborns but now they are on the go and I'd like to "do" things with them and go places but there's only so many things you need from Wal-mart. Anyways, what are you going to do to keep yourself sane and your LO's happy this winter???

 

Crafts, mall walking, reading, singing/dancing, playdates w/ my BF, if we do have snow let them play out on the deck, walks outside

 

Big snowfall here today as well! Still snowing.....we are playing with pillows on the ground....it is going to be long.

 

It's the other way round here for us. From April to Oct it's so hot you can't really spend any time outside unless it's really early morning. So we do all the usual stuff inside like crafts, reading, singing/dancing, a little tv, colouring, puppets, play dough, etc, etc. We go to the different play centres they have here in the malls and round to friends houses or visa versa.
