Sara and David really are learning to play together. Unfortunatly for David, this often means Sara hugs him and then takes his toys. She likes to read to him and show him the right way to play with his things. What a silly big sister. She loves to give hugs, too.
It's been snowy and freezing cold here. It's finally warm enough for me to let Sara out to play in the snow. It's difficult to explain below zero windchills to a kid who wants out on her sled!
David had his six month check up on Wednesday. He's healthy, weighs 16 lbs and 4 ounces and is 26.5 inches tall. He's getting so big!
This weekend I actually worked a whole shift. I've been getting called off alot, so it was really good to be at work. Sara and David had a Daddy day. They had a good time and the house was good and trashed when I got home!
Today was a very snowy day. It took Ben an hour to shovel the driveway! Oh well, that means that Sara will have plenty of fun tomorrow. She loves her sled and making snowballs. Hopefully it gets warm enough to make a good snowman. Maybe we'll teach her snow angels tomorrow. Ben will be home for MLK day, so we have an extended weekend! Yeah!
And now the funnies...you knew they were coming. I can't help it, I have such amusing kids! I made David cereal for lunch today and walked away to get his bib. When I got back to the high chair he had pulled the bowl over, stuck his hand in and was happily licking at his fist. Cereal is a finger food, who knew?
Sara had fun taking David to the doctor. But when the nurse walked in with his immunizations, she got wide eyed, ran to the corner and said "Not me!"
Sara loves riding in Ben's truck. Ben was going to pick up some pizza on Friday and Sara did not want to go until Ben said he was taking the truck. Then she picked herself up off the floor and said "Daddy's big red truck? Let's go! I like truck."
My favorite Sara quote: "I would like a glass of milk." (big grin) "And milk goes with cookies!"
