Our little beauty is a beast!



Evie and Lily had doctor's appointments today. We have always enjoyed Evie's healthy rolls, but I was surprised to find that at nearly 7 months old she weighs 20 pounds and is 27 inches! This hasn't hampered her desire for mobility, however. Before she even started sitting, she spent most of her time on her belly, rolling around, scooting. She has mastered sitting, but last week decided to start crawling and is now in the dilemma of getting in places she didn't mean to go. Today she kept heading for the table, trying to crawl over the bottom bar of the bench and then getting stuck and crying until someone would rescue her!

Lily had her Kindergarten (YIKES!) appointment today. 5 shots, a TB test, and a hemoglobin test (not to mention the many, many blood-curdling screams) later, we are glad to report that we survived and look forward to the fact that more shots don't come along for a very long time. Lily spent much of the rest of the day needing to be fed due to her sore finger and being carried room to room because of sore arms...

Lily has been looking forward to her birthday because she really wants her ears pierced. This afternoon she asked of it would hurt, I said probably, and now she wants to wait until she is 8 to pierce them! The memory of the painful shots will last her a while, apparently!
