Our Big Little Girls

I find myself playing "How Big is Eleri" lately (appropriate, given the weight scare and subsequent binge eating we've been happy to encourage); and so we have another installment in the "How Fast It Goes" chronicles.

They just keep hitting milestones. Eleri gave rice cereal a try for the first time.
She's not convinced.


Clio can turn faucets on by herself. And off. And on and off and on and off. I missed the shot, but to get the water going in Jim and Missy's guest bath, she actually had to lean into the sink and let her feet dangle above the stepstool. (And I finally got her into some warm pajamas- blanket sleepers have been outlawed, but these polar fleece separates are almost as warm- and so grown up.)

Eleri, too, is getting some action, checking out the exersaucer to develop core strength and motor skills.


And Clio demonstrates How Big She Is.


Very big indeed.
