We have a special spot on the wall by the kitchen where we measure the girls on their birthdays. We got this idea from my sweet grandfather, who made a big deal of measuring his grandkids each year during family get-togethers. Grace loves to get measured frequently to see how much she’s grown, and there are several unofficial (i.e. colored pencil and marker) lines that have appeared on the wall when mommy and daddy weren’t looking. Tess has caught on to the fun of this measuring “game” and has started to measure her toys. Yesterday it was rolly bunny’s turn. Tess will probably want to measure our baby chicks next, but I don’t think their little heads even reach above the baseboard trim yet – and they’re not very good at standing still.
