kindergarten test drive
last wednesday (5/13) Evyn and a group of other newly-enrolled students had the opportunity to take a test-drive of a kindergarten class. the moms waited in the lobby while our kids were led back to join an actual class in-progress. they came back half an hour later full of smiles & stories to tell.

two months
Last week Andrew celebrated his 2 month birthday :)
Where does the time go?
A day later he was at the pediatrician's office for his 2 month checkup, and first round of immunizations. Evyn always tolerated vaccinations well, but Andrew had a rough time with the DTAP shot - he was very, very cranky the rest of the evening and ran a fever.
He's growing well, though!
13# 7 oz (87%)
23.75" long (79%)
15.75" head (51%)
He's a chubber! What's funny is, he gets lots of "big boy" comments about his size and weight. I need to dig out Evyn's first year calendar to be certain, but I believe she was much, much chubbier at this age, and about the same length.... and she usually didn't get the "big" comments as often.
New purchase this month - a Bumbo seat. Andrew enjoys it, though he's still a little young for it. Evyn, on the other hand, is much too old for it.... try telling HER that, though!
Can you tell they're related? Some 2-month pictures of both kids.

ooops!
Somehow I missed these pictures on my camera from last week.
Evyn went to her kindergarten screening this past Friday. The parents were interviewed and given an orientation presentation while the kids were photographed, introduced to the teachers and classrooms, and observed doing typical kindergarten activities to test readiness.
Afterward the four of us had a late lunch at Lyndon City Line Diner.
Andrew slept... until the food came, at which time he became perfectly unreasonable. I must have been a sorry sight, trying to eat a giant panini sandwich one-handed. But don't take my word for it - Evyn kindly captured her parents in multiple mid-chomp shots.

It reads:Happy Mother's Day Mommy - from Andrew

As was explained to me, Andrew was the only one drawn with fingers and toes, because "his little toesies and fingers are just so cute!"
Pretty good stuff, eh?!
