The Start of a New Tradition


This week, I decided to start a new tradition, measuring how tall Isaac and Kathryn are around year and half year marks.  I still plan to make quilted growth charts to display in their bedroom, but it really says "home" to me when families pick a wall or door jam to make growth marks on.  So I selected a wall, asked the kids to stand up straight and made notations in pencil.  (I promise not to get upset when I discover Isaac and Kathryn making their own marks on the wall in the near future!) 

Kathryn is 35 1/4 " tall, Isaac is 35 even.  Afterwards, Isaac wanted to measure Kathryn.  So I grabbed the camera and took some pictures of him sizing her up in various locations around the house.  I especially love the pictures taken while she was sitting in a dining room chair!
