what's been going on

Not a lot going on in this house, so that's why I haven't blogged in a month. I do have a few recent pictures though for the family.

Trying to take some pictures of Scarlet & Carter always has to jump in

Cute girl with 6 teeth!
Trying out the high chair

Bath time & she loves it

Carter usually takes showers now so he was so excited to take a bath & with his sister!

Loving life at the water park. Thumbs up.

He wouldn't go down this slide last year, now he loves it.

The bathing beauty having fun.

That's it for now...

Our little princess went to the doctor today for her 6 month well check, even though she was 6 months on April 22nd. Better late then never...she doesn't go back till she's one. Her stats are...

Weight: 17 lbs. 14 oz.

Height: 26.25 inches

All of these are in the 50th percentile.Love that little face!!

We had lots of fun at Yaya & Papa's for Easter. Saturday morning we went to the Washington City Egg Hunt...

they just threw candy on the grass & it was a free for all...
happy about all the candy they got...Goofing off with Papa who helped with the hunt...
Carter & Dan.
Later that day we dyed eggs...

Easter morning. Tired but so happy he got another game for his Mobi Go! (Yes those are my skinny nephews in the background in just their underwear!)

Ready for another egg hunt, this time at Yaya's. He found an egg with a 10 dollar bill in it! Thanks Uncle Grant!

I could just eat her up!!

touch a truck

Last Saturday while Scarlet & I went to a baby shower Dan took Carter to Touch a Truck. He saw an ad in the paper & thought it would be fun for him. They had all sorts of trucks, cranes, mighty machines & other cool things. Pretty much he was in Heaven with all things that little boys love! Please excuse the outfit & hair that wasn't done, I didn't get him ready & I guess he was having so much fun that's why he's making all sorts of crazy faces! :-)

Here he is in the garbage truck

The one pic of them together in front of the police/swat truck

In the city bus...

This is so fun

Just my size

Look how small I look....for once

So cool

On a side note...this little princess is 5 months now!!!

I know everyone says this but times really does fly!

4 months

This little cutie is 4 months old! We went to the doctor & here are her stats...

Weight: 14 lbs. 10 oz. (70% percentile)

Height: 24 3/4 (70% percentile)

Head Circumference: 41 cm (50th percentile)

Things to remember:
Starting to grab at things but can't hold them for too long
Has 2 teeth
Still gets up 1-2 times a night
Started sucking her thumb, when she can find it
Loves to sit in this little seat on the counter & watch her mommy clean
As of right now the only person that can get her to giggle is her brother
Drinks 4-5 oz. every 2-3 hours.

We love this little girl & couldn't wait for her to get bigger! Now you can slow down Miss Scarlet, o.k.?!

I never blogged about her 2 month stats. Since this is my journal I'm going to now. She weighed 10 lbs. 10 oz. & was 21 1/2 inches.

a name & a blessing

Dan blessed Scarlet at church on Sunday February 6th. Yep on Super Bowl Sunday, I guess just another reason to celebrate. It was a great day, some babies sleep or cry while being blessed but she was happy & talking. We were so glad my parents, sister, & father-in-law could come. Thanks again for everything guys!

Emily, Dad, Carter, Mom, Scarlet, me, Dan, & Bill

Scarlet & Grandpa
Papa, Grandpa, Daddy, & a happy Scarlet

Our little family. A bit sunny but it's the best we got.

Scarlet wore the same dress my sister & I wore. She also wore a ring that one of us wore, my mom can't remember which one. She's laying on a blanket that was mine too.

What a cute girl!

Look at me.

I'm done.
