The Saggurti Twins: 03/01/2005

Sunday, March 27, 2005

This baby happy about getting a bath is none other than our Medha. She was splashing about more than normal and it had to be captured. Yep, the kid is 13 months old plus a week. As is her brother.

Today, Medha decided to use her snowman as a pillow. She was actually so happy about it that she's constantly hugging it. Along with her other cuddly things like her tiger, blue bunny, little leap and baby tad.

Medha and Pavan are both now very comfortable climbing on to the futon. We have to keep a close eye on them or else they're up there in a flash and look to use that as a launching pad to new ground. Here Pavan is about to...

Always pushing the limits of safety, Pavan trys to jump off the futon...

Pavan "Atlas" Saggurti trying to push troubles out of the way for his Mom. He's going to start on the pillow first.

Medha is so careful about her consumption that she decided today to only use one half of her high-chair to sleep. Check it out...

They're One!!

They're one, and it seems like it was just yesterday that we were complaining about sleep deprivation and wondering how long we can wait before diapers just have to be changed...

Check out the pictures below to see how they're doing. They got their MMR, Varicella and Prevnar shots two weeks ago. Medha went through two bad days after that, but it was Pavan who had the rough week after the shots. He was also fighting the flu around that time and as such the shot took a bite outa the kid. Happily, though, he came through just fine and is back to yelling at everyone in the house. Especially if he doesn't get his way.

Stats wise, this is how the doctor's office listed them:

Medha:
23Lbs, 7 oz [90th Percentile]
30.25 inches [75th Percentile]

Pavan:
25Lbs, 12 oz [90th Percentile]
31.25 inches [90th Percentile]

They're now on cow milk (Organic and full fat, of course!) and have bid good bye to formula. Today they even had popcorn. They've graduated to fun foods like lentils, spinach, squash, but their favorite is Trader Joe's brand of cheerios. And yogurt. It makes their Telugu nationalist daddy very, very proud that they take to yogurt with such lip-smacking passion. But more on that later...
