OK, so those of you who know me know that I am NOT crafty. Well...I got inspired. Someone in our ward had super cute bows for her little girl's hair, so I decided to make some too. Here is a picture of my latest project - taggie blankets. They are super easy, hard to mess up and incredibly adorable. Great combination for a beginner like me. :)
Nothing special about this video. We just wanted to show Grandma and Grandpa Franklin how big she is and how cute she is. She's really tired, so a little cranky. But who isn't cranky when they're tired? This was just taken last night, after her bath.
We went to the doctor this last week for Sariah's two month check-up. Here are her statistics:
11 pounds 2.5 ounces (55th percentile)
23 inches long (90th percentile)
head circumference? 25th percentile!
As I was filling out the little questionnaire they give you at the office, I noticed I was circling a lot of "yes" ones. Things like "If you stand her up, will she put pressure on her legs?" and "Will she track an object with turning her head 90 degrees while on her back?" and "Has she rollen over at least twice?" When I took the piece of paper into the doctor, she asked me if Sariah was really doing all of these things. When I told her yes, she said, "She's doing things that a 6-month old should be doing!" We are so blessed to have such a strong, healthy little girl. She is the light of our lives and are so amazed every day with what she can do.
At her age, going to the doctor usually means getting some shots. I am one who will watch surgeries on TV, and will not hesitate to do dissections with my students. But I absolutely could not watch the nurse poke my poor little girl. Here is a picture of her War Wounds...she got 4 shots!
Sariah can be in the crankiest mood and instantly turn happy when placed in the bathtub. We placed a washcloth to make this video clip appropriate for everyone. Plus, when she's 10, she'll appreicate the modesty her mother gave her. =)
Babies are so incredible. In the span of 5 minutes, they make hundreds of very aminated expressions. I tried to capture some of them! P.S. Thank you Aunt Tracy for this cute outfit!

When I came home one afternoon, we couldn't find Corona! We searched the back yard and started to panic. Then, I found her. See if you can find her...
SO...her new hiding spot is behind that great big shrub! She can see over our back wall and stay cool at the same time. Pitbulls are so incredible!
