say chez

e.m. is two months old. still does mostly this. i feel like i should cut a hole in her boppy to hold a can of bud light.
two month stats:
23.75 in long - 90th percentile
12.7 lbs - 90th percentile
38.5 cm head circumference - 50th percentile

the nurse measured her head twice because she thought she made a mistake because it grew so much. after she was weighed, the term "big girl" was thrown around. meh. she did not love immunization shots.

meanwhile..

evan still does mostly this. we met at salt lick in austin for lunch on labor day. he's still so cute that i can't look at him for long periods of time.
we're smiling! jse entertains her the most, but i can usually get a smile or two.
jse thinks this outfit looks a bit jihad-chic.
..possibly even resembling what may have been the burial clothes of osama bin laden. on that note, yd has threatened to water board e.m. with milk next time she refuses to take a bottle from him.
and another but last terrorist/violence related note, jse surprised me on saturday with a gift, a ruger 10/22 rifle. every guy i have told gets a glossy, sentimental look on his face. jse said it was the first gun he ever fired. it is my first too. i sort of look androgynous or at least like i really love softball. meh.
we promptly went to a shooting range (sans baby girl) where i almost had a psychological meltdown, and then i fired a gun for the first time ever. i wanted to get a photo of me shooting at the range but everyone seemed very serious and i didn't want to be "that girl". this is my sheet which jse posted on the refrigerator.
i don't love guns but think it's good to know how to shoot one.

Do I need to walk around with a bear spray when I come to visit? I don't want to get hurt when I get in between Mama Echols and baby girl.
