Today the twins coincidentally earned their first reward ever for getting ready for bed expeditiously and going to sleep quietly every night for an entire week in a row, so they got an ice cream treat. The whole family went to an early lunch at Fenton’s Creamery and had ice cream for dessert. It had [...]

Things to do on a rainy day
Posted in Arts and crafts, Regional parks, Video included on March 20, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
It looks like we’re in for at least another week of cold and rainy weather. I can’t believe I never knew about Crab Cove before, but at least we can enjoy it from here on out. The best thing about it was that despite it being a cold and rainy weekend day, we actually had [...]
Soren’s 9-month appointment (a little late)
Posted in Appointments, Measurements, Milestones, Video included on March 16, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
Soren had his 9-month appointment yesterday, at just over 10 months old. Not my fault — that’s when they scheduled it. Dr. Phu spent the first half of the appointment asking if we had any exciting travel plans and getting details about how to get passports for children, while he was watching Soren play excitedly [...]
February pictures

You’ll be happy to know I passed my test and some guy in my class felt sorry enough for me having to run into a storeroom to pump milk during every break that he bought me a pork bun as a treat during lunch. The weather here has turned nasty. Today is cold and rainy [...]
Ronin wrote his name, and videos

Ronin told me the Rs were hard, but I think the Ns are kind of tricky too. I think I told you the twins got a toy piano for Christmas, but Soren has been loving it. Here is a video of him playing it. As we bring the baby toys out of storage, they are [...]
Puddles on the grass, or brilliant Claire
Posted in Video included on January 17, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
Last month, I accidentally thought Claire was brilliant. Well, more brilliant than she is. You know. We stopped at a bookstore before gymnastics class and Claire walked over to the beginning reader books and read the title on one of the books “The Fire Cat” out loud and then said that sounded like a fun [...]
A bunch of videos

I just realized lately that pretty much all of the old video links in this blog are broken, so I’ve been slowly going back and fixing them. It’s annoying, but for any of you who clicked on an old link and couldn’t find a video, rest assured they’re still all there and I just have [...]
Soren’s Six Month Appointment
Posted in Appointments, Measurements, Milestones, Video included on December 1, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
Soren had his 6-month appointment on Tuesday, when he was just a smidge over 6 months. He continues to follow his growth curve and some of his 12-month clothes are tight on him now. Height: 28 1/2 inches (94th percentile) Weight: 19 lbs, 10.8 oz (76th percentile) In the past week or so, he has [...]
Soren’s Four-Month Appointment

My co-worker Lena gave me a big bag of baby clothes the other day, including this cute polo outfit. There was a heat wave so Soren was able to wear it this past week, but I think it would have been hard for any of us to predict he’d be wearing a one-year-old outfit for [...]
A new video

And just because I’m in a posting frenzy, here is a new video of Soren, who has been behaving himself and not crying nearly so much lately.
