Caroline: I took her to the doctor yesterday for her 1 month check up, and I wanted the doctor to check her ears and lungs because she has had some nasty drainage from her eyes and nose. She just has a little cold, nothing major. But the little piglet weighs 9lb 6oz.= 2 lbs. gained in one month. She loves to eat!!!! She continues to be such a sweet addition to our family. I plan on doing a one month post all about what she is up to.
Leighton: My Leighton is such a sweet boy....he is getting so affectionate-- hugging and kissing us, especially sister. When he first wakes in the morning and I get him out of his crib, the first thing he says when we come in to the living room is "hi sis". He loves his daddy and grandpa a ton. Things he is into these days: cars, trucks, trains, anything outside, tools (pretend and real ones), and anything Matt does. He constantly tells Matt, "Daddy fix it". He loves when Matt is working on a project or something around the house and he uses tools. He likes for Matt and only Matt to put him down for bed at night, he sits with Matt and holds his blanket (blanky) for a little while before he goes to sleep. He only wants to sleep in his crib, no naps with us. He loves both of his sisters and know how to show it. I guess that's what you get when you hang out with girls all day. As my brother (who has 2 sisters) says...poor Leighton. Don't feel too sorry for him though, he know how to get what he wants.
Anna Claire:
My sweet girl. She also knows how to show affection, I love that my kids like to hug and kiss.
She is into dressing up and pretending these days. She changes clothes 10 times a day, I am not exaggerating. Her taste in clothing....well lets just say the tackier the better. What she wears to school is such a struggle. Does anyone else's daughter have a strong opinion about what they wear. Usually I just let her win, but it makes me crazy because I LOVE LOVE LOVE seeing her dressed cute.
She likes to pretend she's a lot older than she is (usually 7 or 8 years old) and boss her brother around. She also pretends she's a mommy with her diaper bag and usually meets her friends for lunch and shopping. She loves to wash the dishes for me, and I notice she likes to do other grown up things now. Barbie and My Little Pony are still favorites. I can't believe she will be 5 in a few days...snif snif. I feel so blessed to be her mommy and look forward to each new stage.
She's been playing in the rain since she was 2 years old!!! LOVE IT.
