Matching

Definitely never foresaw myself as a parent who dressed her children in matching outfits but.. alas, that is precisely what I am. In the wee hours of the morning, I designated yesterday pajama day. Neither Hillary, Jax, nor myself would get dressed. I even bathed Jackie (she was filthy) and then put her in fresh PJs. Above and below are relatively clear Hillary shots at 11.5 weeks.

Hillary's favorite place to be these days is directly in the zone of danger: on the floor next to a 22 month old who has mixed feelings about her. Haha- I kid. The sibling love is in the air.. most of the time.

Below is Jackie watching Yo Gabba Gabba, her favorite TV show, in the leather recliner that the Easter bunny brought her 2 weeks late.


Jackie got a cool gift from my mom's friend: a pillow case that you color on. When you wash it, the color sets. We colored intermittently all day. It was so much fun - as much fun for me as it was for her. In fact, I want my own.
Jackie has become learned in caring for a baby. As you can see, her doll Richie Omar receives the same loving treatment as Hillary. While watching TV or relaxing, Jackie feeds Richie and then is always sure to burp him. She will then take him for a walk in his stroller, at which time Hannah steals him, Jackie starts crying and Hannah starts hiding. Richie needs a bath.
And above is my little character. She gets funnier and funnier every day. She lets me know now if she wants milk or water to drink. She tells me when she wants a snack. She isn't really into TV, but when she does watch a show, she wants me or Jim (or Grandma) to sit next to her while she watches it and sing along and/or discuss what's on. What can I say? A budding intellectual.
