10-28-14

Eliza had a great nine month well baby doctor visit today! She weighed 21 lbs. 3 oz., and was 28 1/4 inches long. That's the 85th percentile on weight in the 60th on hike! It looks like we're going to have another solid but vertically challenged child. :-) That makes three out of three! Ha ha! I guess with us as parents they can't exactly hope to be giants. :-)

Juliana's speech has really taken off! I am amazed at how quickly she is learning new words and starting to use phrases easily. She was teasing me and trying to take a blanket away from me and would say "I got it!" She says I'm sorry when she gets in trouble without being prompted usually, and has the most tender spirit.

The girls are fighting a lot right now though, which is discouraging to me. They just drive each other nuts some days. Juliana screams at every little thing that .irritates her that Anna Claire does. Anna Claire loves to pester and get her to scream. Makes me want to pull my hair out! Andy can't hardly stand it either! I keep trying to remind them that one day they'll be best friends. It is very discouraging to see them being unkind to each other though. The funny thing is, both of them absolutely adore Eliza. They actually fight over who is going to pay her attention or who is making her laugh! They never get irritated with her crying or bothering them at all. Only with each other!
