Seven Months Old




She is certainly a charmer these days! She has accumulated many nicknames lately, including Kick-Kick-Kick for how she puts herself to sleep, "The Gripper" due to the tenacity in which she will grab a spoon or washcloth, and of course, "Dee-Dee", D's, or "The D's" which is how Mali has referred to her since she came home from the hospital. We think she was trying to say "sister" but it came out "Dee-Dee" and that simply stuck. I've noticed that Brinnly now responds to that name.

Her onesie says "I Love my Big Sister", compliments of the Kurth family. When I was newly pregnant with Brinn, we thought we would buy Mali a Big Sister t-shirt. Well, I soon found that out that Babies R Us and similar places don't carry "Big Sibling" clothes until size 2. (When I guess is the "norm" for other kids to have new siblings). Mali was wearing size 6 months at the time! So, the Kurths came to the rescue and sent Mali an appropriately-sized Big Sister shirt and this onesie for the future baby, aka Brinnly Ruth, etc.

Does Brinn slam her legs against the mattress to go to sleep too? Meg does that and sometimes we'll wake up at night to the thumping.

She is getting big! How much does she weigh now? I think Meg's around 16.5 lbs.
