Compete with cape!

Emily likes to move it!

Emily was singing, "I like to move it move it. I like to move it move it." I asked where she learned that song. She said they dance to it in her Zumba class on Wednesdays at school!

Belle's beautiful mind

I asked Belle the other day if she filled anybody's bucket that day. (That means did she do anything nice for somebody else that would make that person feel good inside.)
She said, "yes! I filled Zoe's bucket when I gave her a piece of candy."
I asked where she got the candy. Belle said something along the lines of, "I looked in the Purim goody bag we got from school. There was one piece of candy in it and I knew Emily and I would both want to eat it, so I thought it was better just give it away."
Belle's mind works in a very interesting way.

Ready for Purim!

Belle and Emily helped me baked the Hamamtashen earlier in the week and this evening they helped me prepare Purim goody bags.

At the Purim Carnival at school!

Silly hat day

Today was Silly Sock Day

It was Silly Sock Day at Belle's school as part of spirit week. Belle's are the purple and green socks (one of each) below the pink leggings.

Hamamtachen making

Silly dancing in costume

Playing together on the phone

Pretend phones, of course (Belle's is the television remote control).

Sadie at one month

On February 15, Sadie has her one-month check up. She's doing great! She weighed 9lbs and measured 21" (she measured 21" at birth, but that measurement may have been non-exact given the nature of trying to measure a skirmish just-born baby). Her head is 14.75" around. She is in the 41st percentile in height and weight (symmetrical!), and 77th percentile for head circumference.
Keep up the great work, Sadie Maxine!

Milestone

After last night's spontaneous but successful nap lying flat on the play mat, I put Sadie down for a morning nap lying flat in the bassinet (as opposed to lying upright in the cat seat, swing, bouncy chair, or my arms). Way to go, baby Sadie!

OH! And she is wearing a 0-3 month outfit today for the first time (as opposed to a newborn sized outfit).  It's a little big, but she'll grow into it.

Playtime turned into nap time

Sadie was playing on the play mat. And then she wasn't. Then it became nap time.
