Many of you guessed it right or close anyway! Did the difference in Maggie's picture give her away?

What do you think...do we look alike? (All three girls are two months old in these pictures). Try and guess who's who! Answers to come...

The Votes are In

Emily & Erin (in the order)

Hi Everyone. This is Erin. That's right, Erin, not Arin. Mommy and daddy decided not to change the spelling of my name. They decided not to change it partially because of your votes (it was 24 to 9 in favor of leaving it the same) but also because while they were taking the poll, my Social Security card came in the mail. That made it seem like it would be to complicated to change. Besides, they didn't want me to have to spell my name for people the rest of my life.

Things are going pretty well around here. I am getting used to this being in the world thing and I'm even getting happier about it. This is a picture of me and Emily playing on our blanket. I'm starting to give some smiles and everyone loves it and thinks I look so cute when I do. Mommy loves to see me smile but thinks it's annoying that I mostly smile and am really happy around 3am. Oh well, what can I say?!!

Emily and I had to go to the doctor on Tuesday. We are getting so big. I weigh 10lbs 9.7oz (35th percentile) and Emily weighs 10lbs 6.7oz (the 30th percentile). Emily is catching up to me! We are both pretty long too. Emily is actually a little longer then me measuring 23 inches (67th percentile). I am 22.5 inches which is the 31st percentile. We are already starting to grow out of our 0-3 month clothes! Even though Emily's head was only the 2% when she was born, now she is the 22%! I have gone from the 22% to the 57% for my head circumference. I was kind of offended because the doctor said that I have a trapezoid shaped head. It's because I always look to my right side. Mommy and daddy have tried to get me to look the other way but I refuse. Maybe I'll change my ways eventually, but I am definitely going to make them work harder to get me to look the other way first...just for fun. Our brains are growing so fast...we are going to be smart little girls like our big sister! The bad thing about going to the doctor was getting our shots. Emily and I both screamed...but not for very long. We are tough. Emily has been really fussy ever since then though! Mommy almost cried just watching us, she felt so bad. Other then that the doctor didn't really say very much. She thinks we still spit up a lot because our stomachs are immature and we try to eat too much and too fast. Hopefully that will get better soon. I don't like getting my outfits all wet and mommy doesn't like doing so much laundry. The doctor also said that she felt bad for mommy that we didn't sleep well, but that's just the way it is. She said that maybe one of us should sleep in the swing or something. I wouldn't mind that!

Anyway, I've got to go. I'm getting hungry. I like to eat a lot!

Look at our chubby cheeks! (I'm on the left, Emily is on the right...)
