Baby it's cold outside

This past week it has been pretty cold here in Longview. In fact, we actually got snow at one point; granted, it only lasted about an hour AND it melted once it hit the ground BUT it was fun to see. Anyway, I haven't been able to take Aubrey out to the park (which I have been spoiled because there is one right down from our house) So what do us Texans with toddlers do inside when it is cold outside? Well, here are a few things us Silverthornes came up with:
Feed all dolls, bears, chickens and things.
Aubrey loved feeding Hope "chips" and "peppa" (Dr. Pepper) Aubrey got to eat all of the leftovers so she thoroughly enjoyed that.

Play like you're a super hero
Aubrey had a good time dressing up in her headband and wristbands, putting one hand on her hip, one fist to the sky and yelling "superman!" as she ran through the house.

Make them earn their keep.
We made Aubrey clean all of the dishes before she could have dessert! (not really, we just let her play like she was washing the dishes and let her splash in the water) It really seemed to entertain her.

Pitch a tent over all of the toys
Aubrey loved this tent! She wanted me to read a book to her under the tent so I kind of slid halfway out so the lighting would be better but she made sure we were ALL the way under. It really was a cool place to hang out.

Run & slide with Daddy
Aubrey would run down the hall as fast as she could and Bryan would come up from behind her and help her to slide on her feet for part of the way down the hall. Aubrey LOVED going fast. Also, the first time she did it, we put on her Dora socks (which her Aunt Nee' got her) so now she thinks she HAS to have her Dora socks on in order to slide.
