Sandra Bullock and her son Louis aren't letting a cold snap stand in their way.

The Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close star, 47, took to the streets of New York City on Monday with her bundled up baby boy.

Louis looked ready to brave the elements in an argyle sweater hoodie, down jacket and boots.

The actress recently told PEOPLE that motherhood is her top priority, and that she's "very happy being a mom.”



"If you let a child into your life, you get a second chance at a childhood and you do things you thought were long past," she tells Extra in a separate interview.

"I'm seeing things we have to do and have to see, so we can remember and take a picture and say, 'Oh my gosh! Look at this!' – when normally I'd just blow past it. It's a whole different time when you do it for the kids."
