Just Olivia!

I haven't posted much about our large fry lately and I feel bad! She has made such great improvement with her language and we are so proud of her! I have really been working with her since I have been home and she is doing such a great job. While we work out we sing different songs such as Old Mac Donald, ABC's, London Bridge, etc. We started singing the ABC's one day and Olivia started singing it with me. Now she sings it on her own and works out at the same time. We LOVE hearing her sing it!! We have also had a LOT of birthdays the past few months. Olivia started putting all of her animals at the dining room table and would sing what she called "happy cake". Then we got a Dora CD that has a birthday song on it and now she sings happy birthday all the time. I am so proud of her and all her hard work! We were worried about her since we waited so long to get tubes and by 2 she was not putting 2 words together. She has come SO FAR from there and we are so excited! She is growing so fast and I can't believe she will be 3 in four months! My baby is getting so big!!!

Peas Please

Kylee started cereal a little over a week ago and Sunday she started peas. I decided since I am staying home that I am going to make Kylee's baby food instead of doing the jar food. It has been fun so far. I have made peas and carrots and next will be green beans and I think sweet potatoes(I am going by the list the pediatrician gave me). Kylee loves the peas and is likea little bird. She keeps her mouth open for more and gets mad when she is done. Olivia of course pretends that she is feeding her baby too and it is very cute! This is a picture that I took with my phone so it isn't that great. I will have to keep our real camera around for moments like these!

Stroller Fun!


I was washing dishes while Chris was playing with the girls. I turned around and saw Olivia pushing Kylee in her baby stroller. She thought it was so fun and Kylee didn't mind it either!

Cereal Time!!!



Well it is official, Kylee is a big girl! She started cereal Saturday and LOVED it. She didn't make a "what are you giving me" face but a "give me some more" face. She was like a little bird sitting there with her mouth open waiting for more. She is too cute!

I took her to her 4 month check up Friday and she was such a trooper with her shots. She weighed 17 pounds 2.4 ounces and is 26 inches long. Kylee has grown 2 inches and gained 4 pounds in 2 months. She is wearing clothes that Olivia wore when she was crawling (which was about 6 months old). Kylee is always smiling and loves her big sister. We call her smiley Kylee. When she does fuss Olivia walks up to her and says, " It's ok Kylee...shh shh." I am one lucky mommy!!!

4 months already????



I can't believe Kylee is already 4 months old! Time is going by way too fast! She can roll over from her back to tummy and today she rolled from her tummy to back. Kylee has started to giggle and it is super cute! She loves watching Olivia and of course Olivia loves showing off. We go to her 4 month check up next Friday. Our peditrician has been out on some kind of leave for a while now so we have to make appointments with the other doctors there. They are all very nice but Dr. Taylor is our favorite! We are praying for her family and hoping that things are fine with her family. Kylee is now wearing some 9 month clothes (depending on the brand) most of which were Olivia's. I was looking at pictures the other day and some of the outfits Kylee was wearing Olivia wore when she was 6-7 months old. I am now very interested to see how big she is compared to Olivia at 4 months.

The girls and I are enjoying are time together and love working out and hanging out with the moms and their kids after class. We meet each month for a playdate and then the moms have a night out each month as well. Olivia is almost done with The Little Gym and we will be done with them! The class is nice but Olivia gets bored quickly now. She is just too busy now for that class.

We enjoy spending our weekends with Chris and going to the Splash pad in Rock Creek. I think we use the pad more than the people that live there.
