The Girls


Yes Jarika as pink stripes in her hair. Not sure why but they are being removed tomorrow. I guess I'll just blame it on the fact that she is a teenager and it is her job to do something crazy once in awhile! The last pic is of a little ritual that Scott and Addy do. She will hold out her foot while she is in her feeder seat and he will put his gargantuan foot against teeny tiny one and she will push it away. It's so cute, her little foot comes up, she does the Addy "squawk" and he immediately obeys and gives her his foot, it's too cute.We are really working on Addy's expressive communication. Strange that I would want to address that since I work on increasing kids' expressive communication all day, but you know! Anyway, one of the things we are really trying to get her to do is to say "no", shake her head "no", sign "no" or "stop". Addy prefers to just squawk at us. She is doing a lot in these pix, I'll have to get it on video. Her nurse today swears she said "no" plain as day when she told Addy it was time for a nap! I'm so hoping she did!!

No it was actual hair color. It was supposed to be a dark brown/purplish color but went way wrong!

My DD had pink hair for a while, i actually liked it, it was better than black, blue, adn the other colors she tried. It caused a huge issue with grandma, who thought it was abnormal. To this day grandma mentions it. LOL

Expressive language is something we fight for with all three girls here too, Meghan's is coming along, she speaks like your typical 3 -4 year old now, Kara says NOTHING and Amanda is a constant babbler. As you know very well, repetition is the key!
