FROSTY FRIENDS

 
So far this winter we have already had 5 snow storms and its only January.  It is shaping up to be one of the coldest winters yet for the Ellis clan. This morning WNYC FM informed us of a cold weather advisory to stay indoors.  Temps tonight are expected to drop to just 7 degrees and winds are expected to gust at 30 mph.  Burr-skis! 

Yesterday we bundled up and headed uptown to the American Museum of Natural History.  Annabelle really seemed to enjoy it, especially the Hall of Bio Diversity that features all sorts of sea animals and life size replicas of underwater life.  She also was intrigued by the polar bears, owls, reindeer and snow cats that we have been reading about nightly in her favorite book, Frosty Friends.  It was awesome to see her start kicking her legs and babbling when we approached something that peaked her interest.  It was if she was saying, "Hey, I know you guys!"  We can't wait to take her up to Bronx Zoo to see the animals in action once it gets warm enough.
