How can my baby be 5 months old already? Check out how cute she is:

Sniffle

It's a little bittersweet for me b/c I know this is the last one. Tony got snipped in June and he just heard from his doctor that his sample is clear. Sigh.

Here is another cute picture from a few weeks ago:

I wanna see how everyone else's kids are doing...share some pics!

OMG, she's cute as a button! But, she looks like a toddler to me, maybe becasue she seems to be handling sitting up so well? She is adorable. I know how hard it is to watch that last one grow though, I'm doing it, too. And Liz is the giantest two year old ever (she literally towers over 3 year-olds, like she's not the same species or something).

I already posted pictures of the older two, but here are some with Liz in them:

Becky, Kate is soooo adorable! She's so smiley and happy. Four months is when they start becoming really fun and interactive, IMO.

PP, how tall is Liz? OMG, that pic of her in the basket is priceless! She was worn out, huh?

Awwwwwwwww, Katie is so cute! She looks really big, or tall, or something. Does she have dimples? I can't tell but she's adorable. I am too nervous to have my husband get snipped yet. I think we are going to wait until Paige is 2. I feel very done but I always have at this stage with a new baby!

I love that blanket pic of Liz! How sweet. We had goats at our local zoo that the kids could pet and feed then the little bastards started getting too pushy and knocking over kids, so now we must enjoy them from behind a fence.

Here's a pic from the day of Paige's baptism last week:

P.S. I forgot to add a big WOW about Liz's hair. She has a ton of it and it looks thick! That's so nice!

Oh, Paige precious! Look at her!

I don't know how tall Liz is right now, she has always been in like the 90th+ percentile for height, though. She has a lot of hair because we can't cut it. She freaks out. I can trim her bangs, but she's so shy, she won't let anyone else touch her. She so badly needs an overall trim, but it just can't happen yet. I've never had a child like this before.

Katie is so cute! And big, too. I think she might be bigger than Harper already. She looks like you, doesn't she-- eyes and smile especially.

That's a fantastic picture of Liz in the blanket basket. We have some of Ainsley curled up in our blanket basket when she was about the same age.

Paige is just adorable, DCH.

Here are my nerds:

Only recent picture I can find of Ainsley where she isn't sticking out her tongue:

Katie is big...she was 15 lbs and 26" at her 4 month check up last month. But she looks a little smaller compared to Michael...

Here's another of me and Michael enjoying a carousel ride:

I love the picture of Liz asleep in the basket...too cute! How tall is she, PP? Michael turned 2 in June and he's only 23 lbs and 32". He's a lil' munchkin. In the 5th percentile for height and weight. He just isn't interested in eating and I'm not going to push the issue. He pees and poops and runs around so I figure he's getting enough calories.

DCH, the picture of Paige is precious. I love that it's black and white! And Katie does have dimples. the one on the left side pops out easily and the one on the right side only when she smiles really big.

Anthro...everyone says Katie looks like me and Michael looks like DH. I don't see it, but I take it as a compliment since I think K is so cute Smile

All of your kids are sooo cute, BTW. How old are they all now?

Anthro- Harper is just adorable!!! We havent seen pics of her in a long time. All 3 of your kids look so much alike. Is Seamus going to Kdg this year or am I way off?

Anthromomma · Posted: Mon Aug 20, 2007 5:05 pm Post subject:

Harper is 11 months (and just barely 16 lbs, which is why I think Katie looks so big), Ainsley is 3 1/2, and Seamus just turned 5. His first day of kindergarten was today:

Awww, look how proud he looks! Anthro, your kids are so cuuuute!

All the kids look so cute! Love Liz in the basket!

Seamus looks adorable!

I love Harper's hair, BTW. And Michael has always been little like that too. I think he might have been 18 pounds at his one year check-up. Katie is growing so fast she'll be beating him up soon Very Happy

My kids have always been lightweights, too. Katie didn't have her car seat forward facing until she was 23 months old, that's when she hit 20 lbs. And the last time I had Liz in to the doctor (which may very well have been her 2 y.o. check sometime in May, I don't think she's been in all summer), she was just barely over 20 lbs (like 23/24 lbs). But, Alex and Liz are tall, and Katie's my pee wee.
