Mandie comes today, I hope to get out and get the camera card put onto a CD so I can post some photos.
Emma is growing like a weed! We had a weigh in Friday and it was 5 lbs 14 oz 18 and 1/2 inches long. Everyone loves on her with comments about her tiny size. I am getting offers for "Do you need anything" One man asked if I needed a stroller. I have everything from the two grand sons the past two years. All of it is blue...but in great condition so I guess her favorite color is blue.. Steven's teacher brought over a girly girl blanket and bed ensemble for her to see girl colors..and the para for Tressa went all out and got outfits which are girly girl. We are a PJ kinda group here so she is warm. Michelle got three preemie outfits while we were in the hospital and she is just starting to fill those out. The newborn items she swims in. Jordan is getting into the baby now. He likes to hold her but a little too tight. He has carried her 2 times so that had to be nipped and he responded appropriately. Lucas continues to be unfazed actually oblivious to any new baby. He has his time and loves to make us all laugh out load so he is all good. Tressa is playing a lot more with her baby dolls which is a mix of Emma and the fact Lara is of baby doll age and engages her into the play. This often starts a spat on the one "favorite baby" Yes, for whatever reason, baby sister is hanging on by threads and is Tressa's prized baby doll as if it were real. She has much newer and much nicer dolls but baby sister is always the prime choice when a choice is to be made. Steven is happy the pool is warm enough for swimming, is doing a fantastic job with his regular chores now. He can take the garbage out and is coming straight back in. He needs to be supervised but no interventions are being made. It is when he knows he is not supervised he tends to push the limits and take off. Keirsten is the typical teen...sleeps till noon, thinks she should do nothing yet claims she does everything and has a phone attached to her ear if not on the computer with her ipod buds in her ears.
