Carina's One Year Stats

Life has been busy, busy, busy these days.  I was in Austin for work for South by Southwest which was the culmination of three back to back weeks traveling somewhere.  I am ready for some down time, at home with the girls and Dave for a while.  I have been behind posting Carina's one year stats:


Height: 29 1/2 - 50%
Weight: 19 lbs 14 oz - 25%
Head Circ: 18 3/4 - 95%


Samantha's Stats at a Year:
Height: 28 3/4 inches - 35%
Weight: 20 pounds 14.5 ounces - 45%

Head Circ: 18 3/4 inches - 97% 
Seriously, where did these girls get these giant heads? I've really been enjoying watching the two girls play.  They giggle and splash together in the bath, they roll the ball to each other, play with dishes and carry their dolls.  Samantha pushes Carina around on her little car and now that the weather has been nice, there is the perfect spot for Carina on the back of Sammy's bike so that they can ride together.  The whole sister bond is pretty incredible to watch.

Last weekend we flew to Omaha to spend time with Dave's family and have the long awaited meeting of Carina Jean and her Great Grandmother Carol Jean. We spent one night with Grandma Carol and Samantha and Carina loved playing with her doll collection and showing off their smarts.  

Then we spent the next few days at Aunt Patty and Uncle Steve's house.   Samantha and Carina had such an amazing, memorable experience with their Nogg cousins. They all fight for their attention and they ran around, put on shows, played dress up and hugged endlessly.  We got to meet the newest Nogg, sweet Lizzy, who is just beautiful with a head full of amazing, wild hair.  Samantha even got to attend her very first play with Grammy and Aunt Patty.   As an added treat we got to visit with Grandpa Bud and even got to see Aunt Diane.  

Nothing better than quality family time! And, now that I'm caught up on my laundry I am off again for a work trip to Austin for the weekend.
