Today our little KenziBear turned 9 months and we celebrated at the doctor's office. She had her well-baby checkup and shots, then Amaryllis had her annual physical.
"Mom! It's like Cinderwella's sleeves!"Everybody is healthy as can be. Kensington weighs 20lb and is 29 1/2 inches long. Compared to Amaryllis at this age, she is a big girl. Which I can tell, because she is already growing out of the winter clothes that Amaryllis wore. Darn, so much for having babies in the same seasons. Amaryllis weighs 28 lbs and will be turning three in 2 months, can't believe it!
This is Amaryllis with my broomstick handle, pretending it is the flamingo's "trunk".Kensington is getting her top 4 teeth in and they look very swollen and painful but she is a trooper. She is a great sleeper, big eater, loves to stand, content to watch, happy, blah blah blah perfect baby. Today she started mimicking our "moo" and "meow" sounds.
Tonight we went to our church Christmas party and the girls got to meet Santa for the first time. Conveniently, today we also watched this personalized video that genius Grandma K emailed and in it Santa asks Amaryllis to stop sucking her thumb (we are working on that this month).
When we went up to Santa tonight, I whispered to him "tell her not to suck her thumb at night". {Evil mom, always pushing an agenda.}
When Amaryllis saw herself in the mirror in this outfit she shouted "it's just like daddy's white shirt!" and she just couldn't get over the collar. Like the dresses? You got it: another 1980s outfit that me and my sisters wore when we were little.
I'm hoping I get picts of the girls in their real Christmas dresses (adorable and a $5 bargain last season) except it's so cold out!
Amaryllis got new jammies and slippers (named Sleepy and Slumber, and she knows which is which mind you!) that were suppose to be for her stocking but she was in need of some warmth so I gave in.Coming up next: a post about family pictures (or lack thereof).

We have had the same problem with Bradley growing out of Sam's clothes even thought they were born the same month. Although now, he's only one year behind in sizes and clothes can be moved straight from Sam's drawer to Bradley's.
We got your card in the mail today. Thank-you. I loved the picture.
I can't see the video, but would love to. Will is 4 and still sucks his thumb. On a positive note, Brianna gave up her pacifier 6 weeks ago and is doing well.
How super cute, Em! I always love seening pictures of your girls. Can't believe how growed up they are. They are adorable!!!
