Red Sox Cult

Papa tortured both Georgia and Rocky with his stinky worn Red Sox hat today. Poor babies. Little did I know...

Rocky being subjected to the stinky hat.

Poor G too.

We are out of here! Long live the S.F. Giants!

Visit from baby Lila

Our friends Tara, Nick, and little Lila (7 months) came up from New York to visit with us for a couple of days. We have been dying to meet Lila in person. She is super mellow and so cute. She and Georgia got along pretty well. Lila had lots of smiles for us and Georgia liked all the extra kisses goodnight. The adults even had some fabulous cioppino for Valentines dinner (thanks again Nick).

Lila and her Daddy

We tried to get a pic of the girls together. They were not terribly cooperative. Too many toys!

They sure would sit still for breakfast though.

Georgia all smiles with her new teeth.



And just some other pics of G from that weekend. She sure is getting around. She has also added several words to her existing vocabulary (mama, dada, uh oh, and hi) , including "all done", "duck", "cat" and "mooooo." She also can point to our nose and eyes when we ask where they are. She follows basic instructions like "switch hands", "pick that up", "shut the door", "let go", and "give mama a hug"

A Toothy Valentines Day

A happy V-Day to all from G!

New daycare

Georgia started a new daycare a few weeks ago. She adjusted like a champ. Although she misses Denise, Maura, and Christine, she loves her new teachers and now has a new best friend, Zoe. They hug and talk to each other. The daycare is located in Brendan's new work building. He likes to pop down and visit her during lunch or circle time. This month is music and movement, Georgia's favorite...dancing!

Georgia in the gross motor room. She loves to climb the stairs, climb through the tunnels and slides down the ramps and slides. I have to be careful not to pick her up when they are in this room because she doesn't want to leave!

Georgia by her cubby.

They made a collage of her family. The kids loves looking at their pictures.

Tag

Our friend Andi tagged us and asked us to do the following:

1. Go to wherever you keep digital photographs on your computer, and click on the fourth folder.

2. Post the fourth picture in the fourth folder.

3. Describe what is happening in the picture.

4. Tag four people to do the same.

Here's our picture (I think it is funny Andi thought my pictures were that organized-I ended up on the fourth Georgia folder and third subfolder of that folder-there were only three-, and the fourth picture). Brendan was comparing his feet to Georgia's in this pic.

I tag Beren and Shawn, Amy and Paul, Julie, and my cousin Jennifer.

Playdate with Paul

We picked Paul up from daycare on Friday and he and Georgia spent a few hours tearing through toys at the house. It was so much fun! One was crawling this way and the other was crawling that way... I don't know how people with twins do it!

Dill pickle for breakfast

Mama and Daddy LOVE to snack on dill pickles.
It seems Georgia does as well.

1 Year Appt

Georgia had her 1 year appointment last Friday. She is 31 inches and 23.5 pounds. That puts her at the 90th percentile for height, 79th percentile for weight...and her head is now at the 25th percentile!

Visit from Emma

The Dragos came over for lasagna dinner and a fairly exciting night of Scrabble.
(how different our weekends have become in the last year...)

Little Emma is walking like a pro.

Although it took some time for her to figure out how to maneuver the 100 lb moving obstacle we call Rocky.

And kisses from her Mama.

As part of the fun, we took the girls for a wagon ride around the house.
They then played peekaboo with each other around the playhouse.
It was the first time they really played interactively (other than taking each others toys).

I guess salons make you want to walk

Georgia took a few steps today at the Salon while we were waiting for Daddy to get his hair cut. It was wild, like she had been doing it all along....

Pic of Mama and G

Climbing stairs

We have been trying hard to prevent Georgia from noticing the stairs. Well too late. Now that she has climbed Paul's stairs, that is all she wants to do at our house. Looks like we'll have to make the hallway and stairwell our January/February renovation project!

Play Date with Paul

Georgia had a fun time yesterday hanging out with her friend Paul. Mama and Daddy came down with a nasty episode of food poisoning and appreciated Beren and Shawn looking after Georgia. Georgia loved wearing Paul's socks and Paul loved taking toys from Georgia (seems fair). From what I heard though, stair racing was the hit activity of the day (well supervised of course).
