My mom bought the girls matching dresses. Clara is growing so quickly that I don’t think she’ll fit in hers for much longer. And since they don’t wear dresses very often, and don’t have many things that “match,” we took a few photos after we got home from a birthday party this evening.

The girls and I spent a few days in Vermont while Ian took a trip to NYC. We visited beautiful Crystal Lake, swam in some ponds and a river, and hung out with the cows. Back home, we’ve been enjoying the warm weather by swimming at our local pool. And last weekend we attended a [...]
In the past week or so Amelia has become very chatty. I think she is enjoying being able to use words to express herself. She often narrates her activities as she is doing them, and she is getting pretty good at being able to tell Ian how her day was when he gets home from [...]

Clara had her two-month shots today. She was measured properly and is 59 cm long and weighs 5.8 kg. She isn’t as huge as last week’s stats suggested. But she is above the 50 percentile. She cried for about two seconds after she received her shots and when we got home she napped from 11:30-1:30 [...]
Ultimate with kids
Posted in Ultimate, baby, friends & family on Jul 6th, 2010
A weekend of ultimate with two kids is, as one might expect, a little crazy. Amelia seemed to have a great time playing with the other children who were on the sidelines. On Saturday she mostly played with our friends’ two boys. Amelia and their younger son, who is two and a half, spent a [...]
Clara slept 9 hours straight last night for the first time. Recently she has been doing 3-4 hours in a row, so I was so pleased to get a good sleep before my first post-baby tournament. I am nowhere near in shape but it was still fun to play. Amelia seemed to really enjoy herself [...]
As I mentioned earlier this week, Amelia can sing the ABC song. It’s tough to get a video of her doing it because she always wants to “see” the screen. However, I managed to capture her singing part of the song with me using iPhone’s Voice Memos feature. Amelia sings her ABCs Also, I recently [...]
Here are a couple of videos of the girls. The first is a random mashup and the second is bedtime in Amelia’s room. Amelia’s phrase of the week is “do it” although it sounds like “do dit.” She likes to say “Mimi do dit” or “Mama do dit” to clarify whether she wants to do [...]
Almost every morning when Amelia wakes up she asks to see baby Clara (who she calls Baby Caca right now, because she can’t pronounce L or R). She will then ask to hold her. Sometimes if Amelia wants attention from Mama so she will say “Hugamama.” Then she will point to Clara and say “Baby [...]
On Friday we went to the Ormstown fair. We took Amelia last year but she was a little young to be able to really experience the fair. This time was different. We saw plenty of animals (sheep, cows, horses, pigs, chickens, bunnies, goats, llamas), had a picnic and rode the merry-go-round (three times). This morning [...]
