Stats & Stars

My sweet little girl is not so little!! She weighed in at a whopping 13.7 lbs and is 23.6 inches. She is in the 97th % for weight and 90th for height and to put it in more perspective she weighs 2 more lbs than Emma did at the same age! She is 2 and a half months old so maybe that makes a difference. G has also rolled over for Daniel from her front to back from her right side - (he said that was important because it means she is going to be right handed)! Georgia also slept through the night for the 1st time - 8 hours straight..YEA!! I could tell she was a little bigger than Emma was. So cute! We are having a lot of fun and excited about Thanksgiving. We are going to have 5 more dogs and 6 more people in our home. This is a home not big enough for our family of 4, so it should be interesting.
We also decided to go by Bass Pro Shop today after our dr. appointment to get a picture with Santa. They are free so I figured when Emma was crying I wouldn't be out any money.. So we waited and it was a winter fun land! Emma was having a blast until it was her turn! Luckily Georgia was willing to tell Santa what she wanted.. And we also got a family pic too, Emma included! ;) I will try and scan them in oneday.

Here are some pics of Emma and Georgia with their Great Grandma Laverne. She has Alzheimers and lives about 30 minutes from us in Soso..yes, that is the name of the town!! It was really sweet to see her hold Georgia for the 1st time. She loved it and Georgia was all smiles too.. just as happy and comfy as could be.. you could really see that Grandma knew she was holding someone special! She kept grabbing her toes and rubbing her tummy.
A quick story.. Emma was helping me make some muffins. I bought her some star sprinkles.. they are flat and colorful.. and gave her some while she "helped" me.. she was twirling around in circles with her stars and of course they spilt on the floor. She asked for "mo" and I told her no, she had to pick up the other ones first.. so she proceeds to get on her hands and knees and is sucking them up off the floor. I was dying laughing and cringing.. and asked why she wasn't using her hands.. she kept going. Of course, silly Mommy, the stars are flat and she couldn't pick them up, so she just licked them off the floor! Gross, but hilarious.. and I didn't even have to clean them up! What a clever, little helper!
isn't she so beautiful and grown up!!

Silly Mommy. Didn't you know that was the best way to clean the floor?

Kids are so practical. Why didn't I ever think of licking up the floor??
