a Savannah update – 17 months

I realize it’s been a while since I wrote about all the cute things Savannah is doing these days. She is 17 months old now, and is getting to be so big! When I look at pictures from even a few months ago, I see such a difference. The biggest evidence of time is the length of her hair. It’s getting so long!

It snowed a lot while we were in Massachusetts. One morning the day after a snow storm, my in-laws took Savannah to a nearby park and pulled her around on a sled. She apparently had a blast.

He said it wasn’t too bad – he was the only one on the road. I stayed indoors. It had stopped snowing, so I bundled Savannah up and took her outside. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find her hat (I later…
