I am amazed at how tall the kids are getting. Lucas (13) is definitely taller than Norm now. Last year's shot was a fake - he was standing on his toes. I underestimated Victoria's (12) height when getting her skis. I thought she was only up to my chin. Rosalie (10) is as tall as Victoria was last year. Poor Evelynne (8) - I won't tell her that she still seems the same size as she always has been. She's the baby; what other explanation is there? I told her today, in the middle of an extremely cozy hug, that she is just the right size to snuggle with. I hope that lasts forever.
For fun, take a look at shots from Christmas past. 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997

Wow! those older pictures are a blast from the past.
I think there's one in there where Victoria is wearing the dress she was meant to wear to our wedding. Makes me smile, I hadn't actually seen the dress before. Hard to believe how much they've all grown since then.
I think that Victoria's skis will likely be fine... with the new parabolic shape, they're being worn a lot shorter. Even Mark is only in 165s (he's almost 6ft), and he's looking at going even shorter with his next set of skis. Gone are the days of the 200s & 210s (at least until the next development!)
