Lil' pipsqueak

Today was olivia's 15 month check up, what a runt!! Jillian has always been 97th percentile and above, and when Olivia was born just shy of 11 lbs i figured we had another bigin' on our hands. Not quite! We call her Aunty Erin, they act alike and are both shorties!!!
stats: 25 lbs, 31 1/4 ", a full 2 1/4 " shorter than jillian was at 15 months!!!!!!! 75% for both. By 2 she's gonna be below 50th!! Otherwise healthy, and dr calls her "motor girl", probably because she was climbing on and off chairs, up stool onto the exam table and down, wild child!

Otherwise we are all good here, ryan is doing great, all his numbers are great. I'm very relived. I hit the 25 lbs weight loss mark this week, only took 9 months!! I did read and article the other day tho that said slow weight loss is best, cause it means life changes a person is making, not just dropping 10lbs very fast eliminating a food group or something. Walking every day is really making a huge difference. And eliminating culvers ha ha!!

Signing Miss J up for 3 K!! Very exciting. 2 mornings a week, will be very good for her, socializing with kids her own age. She will have a blast, and olivia likes her "alone with grammy time" also!

We leave for Jamaica a month from tomorrow!!!!!!!! Gonna miss the kids, but i think after the last 3 1/2 yrs and all we've been through we deserve a little break!! Whoot whoot!!!

Miss Independence

this is how i found her, she gets her stool out and puts it right up to the sink! 14 months! So, i try not to play favorites, but lately jillian has been A HANDFUL to say it nicely. She just never stops, asking a million times after we say no, playing rough, it goes on and on. Olivia on the other hand is such a lover. This morning we were snuggling, she grabbed my arm and shook it. so i wrap it around her and pull her close, she smiled and me and sighed. Made my mothers day!!! I'm figuring, just about the time she turns into a beast child, around 2, J will be almost 4 1/2 and becoming a less beast child. hopefully?!?
