More Winter News

Yay! We continue to have two healthy twins (and a quick listen to Syd's chest and a peek in her ears show a healthy toddler too)!  Asher is just over 18 lbs. and 29.5" now, with Geneva hot on his tails at 17 lbs. 12 oz. and 29" long...right on schedule for 20 lbs and two new car seats when they turn one. Asher just popped his first upper tooth with the second close behind, which will give him a total of four teeth, but Geneva's lack of teeth doesn't stop her from eating anything, that's for sure!  The two of them are full of babbles and SO busy these days! I can't keep them away from the shelves, furniture, or my computer any longer.  If you get a cryptically composed email from me, now you know why...

Sydney has been all about her craft box ever since we got home from Christmas break and all that time spent with her older cousins.  She has been using scissors and stickers to make cards, decorate chairs (and the floor) and make creations with tape, and usually manages to paint both the easel and her hands in the process of any painting project. Syd is busy too, but it is hard to even think of her as a toddler lately with all she can do....until she has a melt down over it and we're sent back to toddler reality!

Let it Snow

So I decided to skip the Christmas photos and just catch up to where we are today. Our Christmas travels were smooth, our time with family was wonderful, and now we have jumped head first into 2011! Everyone has been pretty healthy despite those pesky runny noses that don't seem to go away during the winter. The twins are getting teeth, so that doesn't help either, but more to come about them after tomorrow's doctor appointment. Sydney has loved being outside this year now that she can walk successfully in winter boots, keep her mitts on, and enjoy a sled ride all by herself (although I realize the photos below tell a different story)!
