Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Finally, it’s snowing here for the first time in a year. The temperature was only minus 4 something since yesterday but very very windy. Woke up this morning and looked outside the window… there it was, snowflakes! soft and tiny ones but it was quite a heavy fall. Building rooftops, streets and mountains in the distant were all covered in white. Beautiful.
We were supposed to get out and pick up stuff at the baby shop that we ordered a couple days ago. Special baby diapers from Japan, just like the ones we always bought in Jakarta. Diapers are such a different quality here in the mainland. They’re too thin, don’t absorb as good (Bri gets rash easily when wearing one) and the velcro doesn’t stay on. The snow made me wanted to stay in, sipping my hot cup of tea and munching on banana cobbler while Bri was crawling on the carpet making funny noises while exploring every corners gumming on everything she could lay her hands on.
Today is her second day having home-cooked pureed sweet potato and pear. Those red patches on her face came back again. Oh no, I think she’s getting an allergy from sweet potato. Poor thing.
Jam 9 pagi sesudah kasi sarapan buat Bri, si mommy siap-siap jalan keluar nenteng kamera buat ngechek temperatur plus liat situasi apa mungkin buat ngadain sesi foto diluar. Icon weather di yahoo bilang cuma minus 4 derajat celcius aja, tapi diluar lumayan dingiiinnnnn. Salju di pelataran parkir biasanya ga begitu bersih, tapi yang bertengger di atap2 gedung biasanya putih bersih dan lebih kering. Soft & powdery. Kebetulan di lantai 9 ada akses langsung ke rooftop, yang gak terlalu besar tapi lumayanlah. Ternyata disana saljunya udah menumpuk lumayan tebal — dan kering seperti perkiraan. Bisa bawa Bri ke rooftop. Cihuy!!!
Setelah mengenakan perlengkapan perang plus membawa pasukan dayang-dayang, berangkatlah kita ke rooftop yang cuma sekitar 20 langkah dari pintu kamar…… *ih, terlaluuuuuu* Bri ga keliatan terlalu takjub, dia malah lebih takjub dengan pasukan dayang-dayangnya yang sibuk berjaket tebel plus scarf dan sarung tangan. Untungnya ga ada angin, jadi ga terlalu dingin. Biasanya minus 4 derajat jadi terasa bagaikan minus 20 derajat karena si angin ini. Pipi rasanya seperti ditampar bolak-balik pake nampan dan bibir meringis kaku karena beku …. “Ehm maap mbak, itu ilernya kemana-mana… “ – “Whoa, masa sih? Kok saya ga berasa ya?…”
Sebelum session foto kedua, break dulu, si mommy kering tenggorokan, ngopi dululah. Selesai meeting, si Daddy ikutan gabung. Waaahhh, asik ah, sama Daddy. Briana jadi senyum sumringah terus nih. Paling cinta dia emang sama daddynya. Dasar si mommy niat banget, Bri disuruh ganti baju lagi. Sempet protes sebentar, karena sebetulnya dia paling sebel disuruh gonta-ganti baju… hobinya dia emang lari-larian cuma pake diapers aja. Kebayang kan minus 4 derajat. Gak lucu ah Bri!
Begitu digendong daddy dan liat kamera dia langsung senyum. Udah hafal kayanya kalo dibalik kamera itu ada mukanya si mommy, makanya dia murah senyum. Dayang-dayang rada panik waktu liat Bri didudukin di salju. Dia nyari2 alas buat duduk dan sempet ngomel-ngomel ke mommy. Untung ga ngerti…. hehehehe. Bri diajarin bikin snowball. Ikut nyoba nyentuh salju, sebentar aja, trus tangannya buru-buru ditarik lagi. Dingiiiinnnn!!! Rasa pingin taunya besar banget, jadi biarpun dingin dia perhatiin terus dan dia coba sentuh berkali-kali.
