(Douglas, Page Updates, Sabrina)
I updated the pictures on Sabrina’s page on Sunday. So I am a few days late in reporting the change. I moved her older pictures to a second page so the first one would load faster. Nothing much to report. We have been trying her on rice cereal with only minor success. It takes a different set of skills to eat from a spoon and she is not terribly interested yet. We will keep trying. Her brother went nuts on the cereal the very first time and it was two weeks before we were able to get him to try it again.
She has her four month doctors appointment today and the next in the series of standard baby shots. Let me just say, she is not a fan of being poked with needles. She has probably been stuck more times in her 4 months than I have in my entire life. Hard to blame her for the lack of fandom.
Douglas is making great progress on potty training. We were starting to think it was never going to happen, but it has. A few more weeks and we should be done with it. Yay, progress.
- EDIT – Forgot to mention, I added a new link to the McDaris Family Blog on the right side of the page. Visit this page for Cadenne’s story.
- EDIT 2 – I should have just done a new post for these edits. Liviana is going home Saturday. Congratulations.

(Douglas, Sabrina)
It’s been a few weeks. I have new pictures that I will try and post this weekend. Sabrina is doing great. We are trying to start her on rice cereal. She is not thrilled. She tries to take the food off the spoon like a bottle. Last night she blew cereal all over the place when she tried to get suction built up. She had an RSV shot last week and weighed in at 11lbs 11oz. She’s happy and healthy and so different than her brother at the same age. She is not as physically active as he was but if I had to guess I would say her mind is taking it all in. She likes to be in a place where she can see whats going on. She also likes to talk to people… loudly. If you walk away from her, she will hollar and chatter till you return to talk to her. She really likes to talk to her brother but he is too busy being active. When he does stop to talk to her, she loves it. She looks at everything, but if he is in range, she stares at him and watches everything he does.
Douglas does not stop. He does not stop, he does not stop moving, he does not stop talking… he does not stop. Unless he is sleeping… though I am not usually in the room at those times. He may be moving and talking and we just don’t know it.
It looks like Liviana is doing great. Congratulations Amy and family.
So all things considered, it’s been a pretty good few weeks.
