Following In His Sisters' Footsteps

We just got back from Britton's 4-month check up and he is just like his sisters were. He only weighs 11 lbs. 12 oz., which puts him in the 3rd percentile. His height is in the 25th percentile at 24 1/2 inches long. So now when people tell me that he is getting so big, I can say "no" and not just be in denial.

I am frantically sewing this week so that the girls will have new dresses for family pictures on Friday. Luckily, I am doing a really easy jumper pattern, so I just might pull it off. But while others will be at the oven this week, I will be at the sewing machine.

Hope everybody has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

The Fun Is Over

It appears that the charm of changing Britton's diaper has finally worn off. This morning the girls had their first argument over who had to change his diaper instead of who got to change his diaper. Ahh well, I knew it couldn't last forever...

Reflections

I have been in charge of our PTA's Reflections program again this year. It has been very time consuming, but it's something I really enjoy. It has been fun to see what things the kids have come up with. This year's theme is "I Can Make A Difference By..." so you can imagine that we have gotten alot of entries on recycling. But we also got entries with Sponge Bob, dinosaur battles, german shepherds, and mermaids. One girl's entry was titled, "I Can Make A Difference By Spray Painting Walls." Her picture was of a girl, holding a can of spray paint, standing in front of a wall with a smiling sun painted on it. Hmmmm....
