Ms Indepent

Kate is starting to say new words, which I tried to capture on video, but she just wanted to make me laugh. This girl does what she wants when she wants.

Talent Show

Here is Grace singing "mama's going to buy you a mocking bird" - with some original lyrics. We've all sang a song we thought we knew the words to.

The Many Looks of Grace

Sporting a bed head hairdue and size 9 month onesie

Classic Cinderella

Swimsuit (every 4 year olds favorite) with a 2T skirt, tights and headband

Ballerina

Doing ballet while trying to keep her press on nails intact

Jake's 4 months old

Jake turned 4 months old on March 4th. At his Dr.'s visit he was 13 lbs, 24 inches long. That made him in the 25% for height and 20% for weight. His head size was in the 50% which is a shock for us and our previous off the charts small headed babies. Jake is now in his own room and on more of a schedule for naps and bedtime...YES!!

Got to make a change

Today Grace had a sad but true observation. I was watching American Idol and she said "That girl is wearing a dress." She then looks at me.. "Moms wear sweats and girls wear dresses." Someday I will have a chat with her about having babies and how your dresses don't fit anymore.

Pineapple Delight

Nothing like fresh fruit and a big mess. You may notice a white upper lip which is not from milk. It is from nail polish her sister applied and then gave her to run around the house with. Luckily the carpet is cream and brown so you can't see it. You can just feel the crunch as you walk on it throughout the house. AHHHHH.

Did I mention the hair? Everyday I do her hair cute and after a nap it just looks like Flock of Seagulls. This video is only of her eating (no tricks). Wish I could be considered cute when I'm chowing down.

Not Much Going On

I was very proud of Grace for sharing her coveted and only heart shaped sucker from her preschool valentines party. Kate was pleased.

We got Kate Elmo for valentines. She LOVES Sesame Street which helps keep me sane.

Doing her duty

Grace forcing Jake and I to play Bunko while she tells Luke Skywalker he's late

Jake happy as can be in his girl blanket with scratches all over his face from his own nails.
