WATCH: Jonnie Irwin took his youngster sledding - and it looks like so much fun 

He shared an album of photos and videos of the special day, and captioned the post: "We found some snow! Not a dump admittedly but just enough to get some sledging. Fair to say that Rex will be keen for more... #snow #sledging #weekend."

It looks like Jonnie and his wife Jessica's twin sons, seven-month-old sons, Rafa and Cormac, stayed at home during the fun. Speaking to HELLO! about having three young sons at home back in December, Jonnie said: "It's been quite a rollercoaster. You could say I left it all quite late in life. A mate of mine said: 'Jonnie Irwin, late starter, big finisher,' and that is about right!"

Rex loved his day in the snow!

Speaking about Rex's reaction to his new brothers, he continued: "He has a really sweet nature, and sometimes just goes and sits by them and strokes their legs. For such a young boy he's very aware of them and calls them 'brothers'. I don't think Rex can tell them apart, but then I struggle with that as well."
