Scarlett had her one month checkup today! She is 10 pounds 8 ounces, 23 1/2 inches, and falls into the 85th percentile. Considering that Henry is in the -8.6th percentile, I figure that their growth curves will intersect sometime around mid december at which point Henry will pull out his light saber in an effort to defend his title as big brother. She won't fight back though, because all she wants to do is snuggle. Scarlett loves to be held and she frequently reminds of this every time we try to put her down. I recently came across this quote: "Kids are the greatest joy in the world, but they are also terrorists. You'll realize this as soon as they are born, and they start using sleep deprivation to break you." I don't remember who said it because my brain is in a fog from lack of sleep. That and taking care of my other three terrorists. I'm going to go snuggle Scarlett.

HOORAY FOR BLOGS! I'm SO glad you started one! Now I can blog stalk you ALL the time! The kids are SO cute! I can't believe how big Scarlett is! I seriously think that she and Amelia are the same size! Good stuff though! Brandon says she's sleeping pretty well. How'd you get a www on your blog? That's so much easier!
I love it! I especially like the quote about terrorist kids. It all makes sense now!
Nice job on the blog Amanda- I was just checking to see if I remembered the link right. Looks good. Amen about terrorists.
