How the Heck do you get Snow Boots on a Kid??

Seriously getting snow boots on children should be a heck of a lot easier than it was today. If anyone has any tricks please pass them on, I nearly lost it trying to get the boots on the boys and they were several sizes to big! First a big thank you to everyone who has ever passed down their childrens clothing to us. I was able to round up 2 snow suits and 2 pairs of boots while the boys took a morning nap. Kieran was the lucky child, wearing a snowsuit just his size, while poor Rowan was jammed into a 3T. He didn't seem to mind once we got him outside. The boots were both bigger sizes but really do they walk far. They had no idea how to walk in hard soled shoes. Kieran just lay on the living room floor trying to move like an inch worm.

Once outside Rowan loved the snow. He couldn't get enough. He was walking and trying to climb in the mounds Patrick had piled up on the deck for them. Kieran, totally different story; he just stood there for some time deciding to take his first steps very caustiously. Too cute. Once he realized he could crawl he was alittle more adventurous. Some of you may notcie the awesome gates that were installed this past weekend, thank you dad and Patrick for all your hard work!
