Atchuthan and Shuchi!: February 2010

Crayola Factory

We took Ats to the Crayola Factory in Easton, PA on Saturday - sort of his Valentine's Day gift. He really liked it there - a lot of activities set up for the kids. He also really enjoyed the National Canal Museum that is located on the top floor in the same building.

Happy half-birthday, Shuchi!

Shuchi is 6 months old!!! We can't believe that she's gotten so big already. Her babyhood is just flying by. She can roll, sit unsupported for a couple minutes, talks up a storm and is trying to get on her knees to move. She's quite a happy baby and a much better sleeper than Ats ever was. She's very laid back and happy to watch big bro play and entertain her. We're very lucky to have such good kids. (*knock on wood) Here she is on her half birthday -

A week of firsts. (Jan. 31 to Feb. 6)

Shuchi decided it was time for her to accomplish a few milestones.

On Jan 31st she had her first taste of solids. We tried oatmeal but she didn't like it much and most of it ended up on her rather than in her. Look at the face she's making here -

She also rolled from back to tummy on Tue. and by Thursday was rolling in both directions and mobile. Then, to top this off, she decided she was also going to start sitting unsupported for a couple minutes at a time. She sure had a huge growth spurt this week!

On Thursday, Ats had his first dentist appointment. He did great - let them clean his teeth and played the "count your teeth" game with the dentist. No cavities - yay!
