"Big Girl"

Chelsea has had many nicknames in her short life...choo chi, chooch, bubba girl, big girl...the list goes on and on. "Big Girl" is emerging as the dominant one though and it looks like it's a good one!!! She had her 16 month doctor appointment this week and SHE'S A BIG GIRL!!!!

32 inches long (83rd percentile)

24.5 pounds (67th percentile)

and drumroll please.......

19.25 inch head circumference (99th percentile)!!!!!!!!!

The girl has got a big dome! The past three times we have gone for check-ups she has had her head measured twice. First by the nurse and then again by the doctor because he can't believe that her head is that big. Sorry doc! It's true. At this appointment the doctor said, "the good news is that her head growth is slowing down", that's because last time it was over 100%! Nick has an enormous head too...it's in the genes. Not from Ryan and I though...I have a tiny head and Ryan has a normal head.

I hope Target has a "Big Head" section because none of the summer hats we have fit!!!!

big head nothing...looks perfect to me!

Easter Afternoon

We hosted Easter Dinner this year and had a great time! We at our traditional ham dinner inside but otherwise we all spent the day outside in the beautiful weather. It couldn't have been a more perfect day. The kids had a blast hunting for eggs and then eating the goods.

Ready to go!

Easter Morning

Nick was blown away by the fact that the EB ate some of the carrot

Tommy's always gotta get in on the action

CHEESE for Easter!!!!

Nick got about 10 Mr. Men & Little Miss books from a friend for Christmas and we basically have not read anything else since then. The EB added to his collection. As you can see from this video, he has memorized all 46 Mr. Men and 20 Little Misses that appear on the back of the books.

Shout out to the Easter Bunny!!! Such a sweet boy (once again, video was not rolling so I had to ask him to re-do the moment but he came out with it all by himself the first time, no prompting for a thank-you). Not sure why he is talking in the strange voice...

2nd Annual Bunny Photo Shoot

Another successful bunny photo shoot...and this year Nick actually touched them. In fact, he was quite upset when it was time for "Max" to leave after our 5 minutes with him. Sorry! No room in this house for another pet!
