Suckers...

I had to post this one! Emma is really into candy these days! She likes to play in the bathroom "washing her hands" and she came out of the bathroom with what she thought was a sucker in hand...and asked Steve to open her "sucker" LOL I will leave you to think of what wrapped sucker shaped thing she might have been talking about!

Shame on me!

Wow, I knew I was a little behind on things, but I didn't realize just how behind I was! I decided to check in with my good buddy Snapfish and see when I last shared my pictures with her. It had been over a month! I made it my goal today to upload and order all of those pictures! Over 200 picts later, they are ordered. I must say that it paid off to wait as I was able to surf out on the web and find a coupon for free shipping if you ordered over 100 prints! I had done the math and it would have cost me over $37 to pick them up in the store, or just over $34 to have them mailed. With this coupon code, it was only $23.17. Great savings!

Emma is now officially 2 yrs old! She is great at throwing those fake 2 yr old fits! I must say sometimes it is quite comical to watch her watching us for our reaction, stopping mid fit to see if we are paying attention! Here are her stats:

28 lbs 4 oz which is 72% for her age

35 1/2 inches which is 90% for her age

shoe size: 6 1/2

clothes size: 2T

Security object: anything blankie like

Fav food: chicken nuggets, chocolate, and milk

Fav toys: baby dolls, purses, and anything Chloe is playing with

Fav words: baby, mama, dada, chloe, maci, emma, milk (we here these words hourly)

Fav show: Dora, Mickey Mouse, Pooh

Fav time of day: bathtime

Bad habits: sucking thumb, making a mess out of her dinner, and hitting Chloe

Cutest thing she does: makes funny faces, puts herself in the corner, tries to feed Maci with her play bottles



Maci had her 4 month check up...finally (a little late, I know) Below are her stats:

13 lbs 10 oz which is 35% for her age (tiny)

25 inches which is 63% for her age

Maci has recently found her hands and LOVES to chew on them. She is very drooly..if that is a word. It's so grose...that girl can soak a bib in less then 2 minutes. Needless to say, I am keeping busy with laundry! Maci can now grab things and Chloe and Emma think this is really cool.

Chloe is very very very talkative lately. Makes my head spin somedays. So many words! Questions! Lack of volume control! ARGHHHHHHH She loves doing craft projects, so I am trying to keep her busy with those most days! She loves preschool and I love the break it gives my ears!

I am richly blessed by my girls! I still can't figure out why God chose to bless me with them.

Emma's first hair cut

Today after taking Emma to get her 2 yr pictures made, I took her to get her first official haircut! Below are the before and after pictures.

Bye bye cute blonde baby curls!

It's gonna take a few days for me to get used to it...but I am sure Emma would be happy about not having tangles anymore!

Birthdays of years past...

I thought it would be fun to upload a few picts of the girls birthday partys from last year. I have birthday on the brain as Emma is turning 2 this week. I can not believe how fast this past year has flown by. Emma has grown and changed in so many ways. Too many to list!

Chloe's 3rd birthday was a "Chloeland" party. Her cake was so full of candy...sugar overload! Chloe had gymnastics that morning, then came from there to her party. I will not do another sugar filled party again!

The theme of her 1st brithday party was "Cute as a Button".
