The Blizzard of 2010

We have been snowed in all week (with the exception of Avi who went to work on Monday).  All told, we had about 50 inches of snow!!!!  With the kids of from school this week, we have come up with some interesting things to do. We played in the snow, baked cookies, zucchini cupcakes and challah, had playdates, watched videos, made a fire and roasted marshmallows, played games and dress-up and much, much more!

Little Miss Chatterbox

Leah had her 15-month checkup:  she is a whopping 50th centile for height!

Challah
Uh-Oh

She signs "eat" and "more" and nods and shakes her head for yes and no.



She will also say, "Hi Mommy" and "Hi Tatty"


How big is Leah?  SO BIG!
