Isabella's Birthday Update

We had Ella's 1 year checkup on Friday...She was 22lbs. 9 oz. (75th percentile) and 30 inches (80th percentile). So she is getting big! She is pretty much running now and is very active. She also says: mama, dada, hi, bye, baby and also moos and barks. She continues to be a good baby and only crys when her sister takes her toys away or when she's hungry. This kid could go days without sleeping as long as she has food in her tummy she's happy.

Emma is doing good as well. She puts complete sentences together now and still loves books and reading. Matt took her to see her first movie last week while I was working. I'm happy to report she made it through the whole movie without moving. She also knows most of her colors, letters and can count to about 12.

I'm posting a few pictures here from the party and I'll try and get the rest up today or tomorrow.

Happy Birthday Baby!

Today is Isabella's 1st birthday! She is a very busy girl and will not really hold still for pictures, but here are a few I got today. I'll post another one sometime this weekend with her stats from her doctors appt. and pictures from her party.

Cold, Snowy, Sick and Tired!!

I know....it's a horrible sounding title for this post, but it's the honest truth. First it is freezing cold now and it snowed last night, although it thankfully didn't stick! And thanks to stupid daylight savings time ending Matt and I are both painfully sleep deprived! The girls are waking up at normal time, but that has now become 6:30 am... I have also had a very busy week of working non-stop. Not to mention all us girls got sick while Matt was gone last week at work training.

Ok, so that's enough of that. Isabella turns 1 this week!!! I cannot believe it has been a whole year already. We are having a party this weekend for her and she also has her 1 year checkup on Friday, so I'll post her new stats then.

Trick or Treat

So I guess I'm just a bad mother. I didn't get any pictures of Isabella in her costume and only a couple of Emma before we left for trick or treating. Emma would barely stand still and we only went to a few houses, so not so many pictures. It was also Isabella's bedtime when trick or treating started and she was crabby by the time we got home. So for your viewing pleasure the only good picture of Emma in her costume. I'll try and dress them up in the next few days and get some more pictures. She's a monkey by the way....
