Alex (19 months):
Not much new with me. I am still a big ole trouble maker. I like to climb and steal toys from my sister.

Amelia (6 months):
Well I made it to my 1/2 year mark. I am 27" tall (95%) and 15 lbs 6 oz heavy (50%). The Dr. said I am coming along beautifully. I've started solid foods and love everthing I have tried except carrots.

Leave my cookie alone!

December

Alex (18 mos):

I am a year and a half now and as strong-willed as ever. I had my check up and everything is going well. I am 34" tall (85%) and 25.5lbs (55%) - so I'm starting to get Daddy's skinny legs. I still don't talk all that much, but the Dr. thinks everything is fine I will just do it when I decide. We had a lot of fun this month putting up the tree and even a few warm days (like shorts weather if you can believe it!) that we made it up to the park.

Amelia (5 mos):

What's new with me? Well, I had cereal for the first time and demolished it, Mommy says no surprise b/c I am such a good eater. I am rolling over all of the time and pretty much sitting on my own. I celebrated my first Hannukah and Christmas and both wer just splendid. I think my big brother is the funniest person around, especially when he kisses me or pretends to hold a phone to my ear.

Christmas

Well, we just had a wonderful time going to PA for Christmas. We saw tons of family of friends. The kids were very well behaved for the most part and definately got more shy as time went one and met more strangers. They spent tons of time playing with Uncle Bill, Mimi and Pop. Alex even got his first set of stitches - 8 to be exact after a little run in with a metal store shelf, but survived to tell the tale...
