What next?

If trying to meet the needs of a 5 week old isn't enough, my 21 month old has decided to pick up a few new tricks. (The first few pictures are fuzzy because someone got a hold of the camera and put fingerprints on the lens.)

1. I shall not wear pants

2. I shall dress myself in whatever I choose
3. I shall NOT take a nap
4. I shall sit and stand on my headboard instead
5. I shall take out my ponytails and barrets
I have a feeling we are entering this next phase of exerting independence in full stride.
The calmer of the two children is also entering new phases. We had her 1 month check up (at 5 weeks.) She is a whopping 12 pounds and 23.5 inches long. I think somone slipped her some miracle grow because she gained 4 pounds and grew 3.5 inches since birth. Callie is already outgrowing some of her 3 month outfits. Yikes. I think we have our middle hitter. :)
She is starting to smile at us and be more active during her awake times.
Lots of Love

Cute pics - Maddy looks adorable but onery. We have a no-pants wearer at our house, too, at the moment. Though he insists on wearing shoes with the ensemble.
