2011

Well, January is behind us now and you've grown so much Rohin in such a little bit of time. You're really turning into quite the mature little boy. So far, we only had snow one time this year -- about 8 inches. You actually spent time out with Ammuma in the backyard making your very first snowman with Talin!

First, we have to talk about Santa Clause -- he made a really big impression on you this year! You were amazed at how he could fit down the chimney and asked about this often. You still love to hear daddy read "Twas the night before Chritmas". You also really fell in love with frosty the snow man and asked about him often too. We went to a local convention center that had a Christmas show and asked if Frosty was going to be there. You love to sing the song frosy the snow man as well. Also, you came up with your own version of "Tis the season" -- you sing "tis the season to be sorry". In the same category of funny things you're up to -- one day our nanny wasy leaving and daddy said -- say goodbye. So you said "bye Giovanna -- have fun storming the castle", which is a quote from the movie Princess Bride. Daddy was definitely to blame for that one.

Night times have become a very interesting experinece these days Rohin. We go to bed around 7:30, but it can take up to an extra hour sometimes to get you to sleep now that you're not in your crib. After reading books and saying our prayers, you love to have mommy come and lay in your bed and talk to you about the day. Sometimes, you tell us that you're afraid of the dark -- but daddy tells all of the monsters and creatures to leave your bedroom and they do it because they scared of daddy.

You're such a loving and respectful little boy Talin. You say please and thank you and are so responsible in helping your brother and sister. You and Talin are best friends and play so much together -- everything from chasing each other around, to making hideouts with each other.

Food wise -- you're still a big veggie and fruit fan but recently have gotten into ham as well. Spaghetti is still one of your favorites! We think you're going through a growth spurt recently because you've been eating so much and getting sooo tall. You're actually starting to wear 4T clothing at just less than 3 years old. It's hard to believe that you're turning 3 soon Rohin -- it's just like yesterday that mommy and daddy held you for the first time.

You also still love your school and mommy went with you as a chaperon to a field trip in DC to visit a museum, which you really enjoyed. You love to read books Rohin and love to ask Why now. You love asking Why so much that even Talin likes to ask Why now! Mommy and daddy always try to explain why. The biggest why question recently is why daddy's lawnmower doesn't wory. In other power tool news, you and Talin also got to watch daddy cut down a tree outside of the house with his chainsaw -- which was a fun event!

It's going to be a wonderful Spring ahead and we're so proud to have you as our son Rohin.
