Just Marin

Marin is, well... Marin!! This post is devoted entirely to her. She's unlike her brother in every way; but I like that. She's NEVER been a good nighttime sleeper; she's ALWAYS been a great napper. Here's a frequent conversation that I have with my mom:

Nana: How's Marin doing?
Me: Oh, pretty good!
Nana: Did she sleep good for you?
Me: Oh, I guess!
Nana: So, she didn't sleep that good?
Me: Oh, she slept like Marin.

So, that's my answer for all things related to Marin. "Well, she (insert phrase or action here) like Marin!!

But should I be surprised? No, I shouldn't. And this is why. She's named after her two great-grandmothers; both of whom were named Mary. They were both sassy, very outspoken, and just kind of marched to their own drum. I like that.

So, here's to you... Marin... my sweet, sweet daughter!! Your great-grandmothers would have LOVED you to pieces! We sure do and cannot believe you will be ONE next month. What? What happened to you? Why must you grow up?

Whatever! I'm sad now. So, enjoy some pics of her.

Do you see the paci in her mouth? Or did you miss it b/c of the one in her hand?


Here's a closer look! And this folks is why we will not be able to "take" her paci as quickly as we did her brother's.


Here she is sporting her cute hat! She likes to play outside with it on her head; it keeps her ears warm. I mean, it's SOOOO cold here! Blah!!


What a sad face. But isn't it cute?


She loves her mom; no really she does! At least that's what I tell myself!



And here's my closing phrase:
Well, she LOVES like Marin!
