Clothes

Today started out rainy so it changed our plans.  I decided it was time to change the girls clothes over to long pants instead of shorts.  I had bought some size 5 pants and they are way too big.  Sasha can still wear the 3T pants she was wearing last spring.  With the pullups off and regular panties on, it gives you about another 1/2 size of room in the pants.  The 4t are just a little loose on Sasha, but fit ok around the waist.  Sadly, they are way too long- like 3 inches too long.  Leeza can fit into some of the 3t and the 4Ts fit good.  The ones from walmart are the right length.  The ones from target or kohls are about 1 1/2 inches too long.  So I have a lot of hemming to do on pants.  Both girls are wearing size 4t tops.  Leeza has some size 5 that she wears.  Leeza wears size 5 in dresses though for some reason.  I bought a lot of size 5 tops as I was thinking the girls would be growing like mad still.  They are still growing, but it seems it is at a more normal pace now.  On the growth charts, Leeza is within a few percentages of 50% of normal height and weight which means she is right where she is suppose to be(50% of kids her age are taller and 50% are shorter).  Sasha is closer to 60% on weight, but only 25% on height.  She is just going to be shorter.  When they came home, Leeza was at 20% height and 10% weight and Sahsa was at 10% weight and 5% height so they both have caught up really well this past year. 

Leeza is ready for winter in her new pretty pink coat and boots.  This is really cute in person.  It is a little big still(size 5) but should fit well by winter.  The coat is styled to be long.  So if you are wondering why no Sasha picture, let's just say this is not the style for her.  I will get her a good coat soon, but it need to be a different one.  The boots are size 9 and fit well.  Sasha is now in a size 8 shoe-at least her feet are growing!

Leeza finally passed a hearing test Friday!  Yea!  This was her 3rd test and we were going to have to start the rounds of doctors again if she didn't pass, but she did.  I tried to take her to the eye doctor and that was a disaster.  Sasha did really well though and she has good eyesight though maybe a little far sighted(no need for glasses though).  Leeza refused to cooperate with the Dr and didn't want anything to do with anything that day.
