9 month short view



Sara....aka....squeaks, sar sar....the crying baby (JD)

Weight - 14.9 pounds
head - 17.25 cm
Height - 25.5 in
3rd to 4th percentile



Sara loves to be on the move and climb over her sister or anybody in the way...she does not go around! She loves her binkie....or rather.....her gloug gloug....that is what she sounds like when she talks with it in her mouth! She loves her naps and her blankie

(ok it is really ashlee's old blankie....but com'on, I made her at least four different blankies and my neighbor/best woman in the world made her one...do you think she likes those?! NO! And I am in the process of making her one with cotton.....but it has been a busy three months...she may have it in time to take it with her to college!)

back on track..

You can lay Sara down with her/ashee's blankie and her gloug gloug...and out she goes. She can sleep through the night despite being smaller then her sister (you would think that she would need more sustenance!)

She loves mini chocolate chips....what girl doesn't? and small places....see later paragraph!



She has most recently started pulling herself up on all things....sheer determination! I am a little sad to think that she will be walking so soon!! She has been army crawling since she was five months....such a little bloomer.

Don't snuggle her unless she starts it.....she will scream bloody murder and hold her breath...she needs her space...after all she was on the bottom and squawisshed for nine months....I know....I have the proof...

not only could I feel her kick out.....I have the pictures of her sweet little face pressed up against the wall....it was squawuusshed!

Sara loves her Ashlee...she held her arms out for her very firs and squeals when Ashlee walks in the door.....Ashlee has earned this right...she packs her all over the place....because unless she can be on the move....DO NOT sit her down...SHE DOES NOT LIKE IT!!! She will stiffen up and refuse to bend at the hips....

it could have something to do with being squawuusshed for nine months....this is something she is clearly not going to get over soon! (or until she has her own room!)

Sara can squeak Dada....o yay..she sounds like a little mouse when she talks..its a squeak! But boy can she cry/scream....it doesn't faze her mother...but boy does it get on everyone else's nerves....she is currently seeing a therapist for this....(see previous note about chocolate!)

She has blue eyes, one tooth and lots of dark hair...well lots for our history of hair....and her daddies one side dimple....she is his spitting image....however.....

she has her mom's loud and obnoxious...notice me attitude.....sorry world...you are in trouble!




Samantha...aka.....Sam, Samers, Sammi whammy, chub chubs (please dont tell her...the therapist bill is already growing!)

Weight - 18.9 lbs
Head - 17.75 cm
Height - 27.5 in
50th percentile

Sam is the younger bigger sister.....but she takes alot and keeps on tickin....

ok so she usually cries when Sara is on her and puling her ear or poking out her eye..sucking on her head....but she is a rare if not cute crier!

She is the yang to Sara's ying. She doesnt sleep through the night, but would rather be attached at the nipple.....or have it close enough to touch. [[side note: if you read my earlier post about aging...I have now told you the secret...I can throw the old milk jug over my shoulder...sad...but true]]

Sam is a laugh-er and a giggler...and the early bloom of a class clown and funny kid in the family. She now throws back er head, scrunches up her nose and eyes and pretends to cry..then looks at you to see if you are paying attention....

we are usually laughing....which has heightened her sense of drama...

We are always laughing at her funny scrunched...woe is me faces...complete with two bottom teeth...she knows she is cute..

She is still army crawling..because...well...she is chub chubs.....her big round pink chinks pull open her mouth and let her tongue hang out and that is a lot to carry around! She is sitting...and she can get around....but is content to sit and play.

She is a funky punk - like her dad - she loves LOVES Loves to play peek a boo with HERSELF!! and laughs! Anything will do to go over her eyes...daiper (clean) wet wipe, underwear....towel...block...she then giggles and ooohhss and aaahhhs...at her own genius....

Sam is mellow...like her dad.....and looks like her mom...poor baby! Mommy muffin and all...only hers is a mini muffin....

let's hope it is food storage for her teenage years!

Hazelly brown eyes with brown peach fuzz for hair...don't tell her she is pretty much bald..people already think that she is a boy....even in pink.... (dang gender neutral color wearing people)

She is obviously bigger then her sister....but no one has told Sara yet. She loves her baby doll...she sleeps with it...or on it....

probably for comfort....she hates her bed....heres the proof..she is trying t escape!!! Sad baby!!




ooooo....and she likes her some food, any food....tittie food, baby food, table food...just keep it coming.....just like her momma.....just keep it coming!
