We are Living Large

...Or at least Satya is! Gaining weight at a good 3+lbs/month clip, she's happily wearing clothes Pace wore at 12 mos! Her thighs and belly have so many rolls that even when she stretches out, they never quite come apart. :) She's really long too! 90th percentile for weight and head and 95th percentile for height. But with her parents statures, she'll be hard pressed to stay there.




This winter we've had record snow! I don't think it has stopped snowing since Christmas. So we've been busy with snow angels, snow balls, sledding, and shoveling our driveway when the sun occasionally peeks out. Pace loves all of it and has finally decided that keeping his mittens on will in fact keep his hands warmer.



With all these snowy days and a new baby to keep us in doors, play dough has been a favorite pastime. Pictured below is Pace with his first homemade lump of play dough (we didn't have any food coloring but he didn't seem to mind). We make BIG trucks - garbage and snow trucks most often - and various fruit. His Auntie Ellen also gets sculpted a lot.




Life with two kids gets better everyday (even though some days I want to put one of them out in the snow!). We do lots of reading. Satya loves books as much as Pace right now.

...and it is precious to see the two of them together!
