Two Short Things

Julia has started wearing the 3-6 month clothes we have for her. She's not at the weight limit on the 0-3 month stuff, but she is at the length limit! She's so long that she almost fills out the 3-6 month footie pajamas when she stretches out. Here she is in a cute outfit that I couldn't wait until she could wear it when I bought it, but now I'm a little sad the time has come already. She's growing so fast! I packed up a lot of her outgrown clothes this past weekend. They'll be in the attic waiting for a new cousin (or sibling) to make an appearance! (And on the sibling front, the clothes can just keep waiting!! We've got our hands full with just one at this point. I can't believe I used to want twins!)
When Nannie and Pa visited they commented over and over how strong Julia was for a seven week old. She's gotten really good at holding up and controlling her big ol' noggin. But this is nothing compared to her new trick! When she's mad at us for putting her to bed for a nap or for not coming to pick her up in a timely manner once she's woken up, she wiggles herself out of the swaddle and keeps going until she gets stopped by her crib. Then she's stuck and gets really mad! (And to add a third thing ... HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!)
