Halloween 2010









The kids were excited for Halloween this year. Oliver really got into it. He walked up to each house, crawled up their steps and held out his hand for candy. He tends to be my easy going child — typically he just goes with the flow or the mood around him. If you're laughing, he's laughing.

Amelia — the one who was most excited to wear her costume and head out for candy, started complaining by the 8th house. Make that, she started before we even left our house! I think she was just too cold...it was only 48 degrees or so. She told people she didn't need any more candy and just kept walking. When someone offered her an Almond Joy I made her take it (they're my favorite!)

Oliver's 18month check-up



My little boy is a peanut! The doc is super impressed with his social skills (he smiled at him and ran over to hug him, then he gave him a high-five...so cute!)

18 months:
Height: 33" — 50th percentile
Weight: 23lbs — 25th percentile

Teeth: all of them; his 4 incisors are just about completely through...FINALLY!

He's also been using the potty once and a while. He sits on the potty about 5 times a day at school and when he's home he tells me he wants to sit on the "paw-ee" ... so he does ... and he's peed in the potty twice for me! He's such a good boy.

Just chillin' and talking on the phone.

Amelia's 4th Birthday

I can't believe my little girl is 4! We celebrated Wild Things style at Goodale Park in downtown Columbus. Thankfully, the weather held out for us. Amelia and her friends played on the playground, played "Pin the Tail on the Wild Thing," ate Where the Wild Things Are cake, and Amelia got her first big girl bike!

AG with her girlfriends Grace and Natalie.

Amelia's stats at AGE 4:
Height: 41" (75th percentile)
Weight: 36lbs (50th percentile)
Vision: 30/20 (let's hope it stays this way!!)
BP: 97/56
