Surya is ONE. Bonkers.

She is pure delight during the day. She is sweet. He favorite thing is to give kisses (mouth open, tongue out) then she makes a little kiss sound and giggles. Seriously. Cutest.

She loves baby dolls and stuffies. She yells for them when she sees them- and points (new skill! Single finger pointing)- she smiles and makes this ah-ah-ah sound when we give them to her and then kisses the (see above) and hugs them close- patting their back.

She breaks into the BIGGEST smile when she sees her people- especially Kins!

She started walking 9/23- her due date! She claps, waves, says dada, ‘At (cat), woof woof, UH (uh-oh) and mama. She does NOT sleep in her own room past 1am. She doesn’t like drinking out of any cup I have identified (unless it is an open cup that I hold for her ugh).

She is 20 lbs 12 oz, (UPDATE WITH HEIGHT). She is petite and adorable.

Kinsy started preschool! He goes 2 mornings a week for 4 hours. They do a little project every day, play outside, have lunch and snack, say the pledge of allegiance and play! When I ask Kins what he did at school he says "nothing". Good thing the teacher e-mails. 

He’s a big boy now- almost 4. Suddenly he is tall and slim (not my little butterball anymore) He loves legos and his family. He played his first team sport- court hockey. He improved every game (but the first one he spent crying in the stands so take that with a grain of salt). He talks up a storm, and has a wonderful vocabulary but he started stuttering last week. We're trying not to make a big deal out of it and if it doesn't resolve we'll take him to the doctor.  

I still want another baby. Hub is not in the mindset to make that decision. He's still dealing with depression and doesn't seem to know how to get out of it (doctor, workout) I know it is related to his brother passing- and having had "earned depression" when Blue Sunday was here and then not here- I get the urge to sit with it. I'm trying not to push him too hard. But he is very prickly- which is hard- and I am worried about him.
