Jack's Stats and Other Things

 I'm 6 1/2 months old!  I weigh about 16 lbs which puts me at 25% and Mama can't remember how tall I am but they re-measured me twice and turns out they mis-measured me last time because I'm 50% for height, not off the charts like they said - well this makes much more sense.  I want to say 26" or something?  Meh.  So much for the whole "monthly play by play" that Alpha Moms give of their babies.  Sometimes Mommy has delusions of grandeur, thinks she can hang with the Alpha Moms and then we do something promptly to remind her she will never be in the ranks of ALPHA.  S'okay, she hates them anyway...
 We get Daddy Daycare all weekend long!  Mommy is going to a "bachelorette" party - whatever that is!  We hear she's going to have all sorts of fun and do all sorts of crazy things like: sleep in, sleep through the night, take a long, hot shower with no interruptions, use the potty with no interruptions, eat her own food and not off our scraps, have adult conversations that don't involve the words: "potty", "poo poo" and "pee pee", talk in a normal voice and not scream, beg and plead for people to do what she asks - BOR.ING.  This bachelorette party nonsense sounds miserable.  Obviously she's going to miss us!
We also hear Grandma is going to come help Daddy out.  Fancy that!  Daddy has never spent more than 24 hours with all 3 of us by himself.  Mommy was really looking forward to 3 whole days of Daddy and us kids so that when she got home Daddy would fall to the ground in reverence and appreciation of all she does but no, Grandma is coming!  Well of course we promise to be extra specially good and have a lot of fun WITHOUT Mommy!  We will save the temper tantrums for when she gets home.  Just to show her how much we really love her!
Mommy is off to get her eyebrows waxed now.  Last night when Mommy was putting Anna to bed she says, "Mommy, I love your eyebrows.  They are like beautiful fuzzy rainbows."  At least she didn't say Caterpillars!
Love,
Lilly, Anna and Jack
