so, i had the bright idea that i might be able to capture a photo for the holiday card that i swear we’re going to get in the mail before march by going outside for a walk in the fresh snow in his ubercute sherpa/fleece “bunting” ( a.k.a. The Bear Suit ).

except i failed to fully appeciate while taking the picture that if you look close you can see that his arms are not actually in their the sleeves. which makes it challenging to keep one’s balance.

and impossible to use one’s hands to cushion the falls when one trips and tumbles face first into the snow.

sigh. and no, it hasn’t escaped my attention that you can still see his recent bathtime bruise which also happened on my watch.
