Bear at the Beach
Yes, David has nicknamed our adorable little one, Bear--to answer some questions from a few of you. We don't know why or how long it will last, but it has stuck.
Last weekend, we enjoyed lovely beach weather with the girls and Aunt Kate, Uncle Johnny, and Cousin Tad. The beach was the perfect scene for lots of crawling, splashing, sand eating, and toddling--it was also ideal for a cold swim as far as E was concerned.

Elsie Says...
Elsie says bird poop is "bisgusting" and ice cream is "dewicious."
Elsie says her daddy is her "special girl" and she is "bery big now."
Elsie says that one day she will let her babies play with her toys and that she will always live with Mommy and Daddy.
Elsie says that she loves reading, biking, jumping, and hiding most of all.
Elsie says she loves broccoli and cucumbers the best today and tells me that they are "healfy" and will make her "muscles grow strong." Elsie is over turkey, cheese, carrots (which she refuses to chew), and cereal--all of which she loved the day before yesterday.
Elsie says that friendly trolls, monsters, and fairies live with us and we have to be careful not to step on them.
Elsie says what should be done every time she leaves the house to whoever is staying: "Nonie--don't forget to feed Bear...," "Daddy make sure you shower while we are gone," and "Oscar-take a nap."
Elsie says "I lub you..."

Our Growing Girls
So here are the stats:
At Elsie's three year checkup, she was in the 97th %tile for height at just over 40 inches tall and the 92%tile for weight at 37 lbs. She is long and lean, fast and strong, smart and funny, joyful and impassioned, delightful and maddening.
At Kit's 9 month checkup, she was in the 95th %tile for height at just over 29 inches (watch out Elsie!) and the 90th %tile for weight at 21 1/2 lbs with a dainty little head in the 37 %tile. She is chubby and sturdy, lovey and laughy, sweet and cuddly, mellow and bright, and laughs like a little baby George W. Bush.
