mercer's first snow steps.

pop took mercer to the park this morning so mercer could take his first snow steps. mercer jumped into his snow suit, jacket, hat, mittens, and brand new snow boots and off they went. the snow was deep and still falling by the time they got to the park. it didn't take long for mercer to topple over, of course. they built snow castles and watched a couple of trains go by. pretty soon, snow was caked all over mercer's mittens and he quite enjoyed the taste. the news was calling for icy rain so pop decided to head home before the fluffy flakes turned messy.

enjoy the photos. at the very bottom, we have a video of mercer first calling for mommy and then pointing at the metro north train rolling by ("a choo!" he says). the gray beyond is the hudson river.
