And, I must say that I was a bit disappointed with the lack of guesses on Amelia's 4 month appointment. I mean, my mom didn't even guess...what's up with that? I think people must be on vacation :) That being said, everyone who did participate is getting a prize. Although, the closest guess goes to...SARAH! I'll track down your address soon and get a lovely piece of artwork out to you.
Amelia's 4 month stats:
11 lb. 9 oz.
23 1/2 inches
cry time: 1 min. 30 seconds
She did a great job! Unfortunately, she had to share her appointment day with Meredith who had to get a monster splinter removed. She kept crying, "Owie, owie, ooowwwiiiieee!" She's not a fighter, though. She pretty much just laid there and cried. Great job Meredith! Grandma gave her M&Ms when she was done (and the nurses gave her a popsicle). I think I want a splinter.
Oh, and my kids rock. They are doing crafts (which keeps them incredibly busy for like an hour at a time) with construction paper, glue, and little styrofoam trays. AND, they washed all of my non-dishwasher (and non-dangerous) dishes. They love to do dishes, and I love that I don't have to do them. Totally a win/win for everyone.

Dear Daughter:
Just so you know...I WOULD have entered the Amelia's Stats Contest however, I very dutifully read the rules, and found that the contest deadline had ended by the time I knew of it. Besides, I had probably had an unfair advantage since I had hands-on quality time with her just prior to her appointment! So you see, I win anyway - I couldn't ask for a better reward than that :)
Love,
Mom
You know I'm just giving you a hard time, Mom! We know you would have won...so that was so nice of you to let Sarah win instead :) Love you!!
bummer...i missed out on the contest!!! Your daughters are wonderful and we love spending time with you all! :) Love ya!
