A trip to the doctor...

Today we were off to the doc for Em's 3 year appt and Allie's 15 month appt. Em was a big girl and stood on the big kid scale and under the sliding thing (great tech term huh!!) that measured her height. She was VERY unsure of the blood pressure cuff, but we reminded her that Mamma does this to her all the time at home with her doctor kit - she just stared at the machine instead of protesting!

Em weighed in at 32 pounds 3 ounces and is 37.5 inches tall - not too shabby :)

Next we went into the exam room and got Allie onto the scale - which she screamed about and then laid her down to measure her length - all while still screaming!

Allie weighed in at 23 pounds 5 ounces and is 30.25 inches tall - gaining on her sissy, but actually smaller then Em was at this age!

The check ups went well - Allie has a small ear infection, so instead of vaccines, she got antibiotics to clear up the ear! So then we were off to the pharmacy to pick up their vitamins and Allie's medicine.

The girls were great and really great with doctor - aside from the screaming from Allie when the doctor was touching her ear!!

After we got home, we had lunch, put Allie down for her nap then Mamma took Em to the grocery store - one of her FAVORITE outings now (weirdo!!) which gave Dadda some time to put together Em's new kitchen as a surprise!!!

Mamma and her girls

Daycare is closed for 2 weeks every summer, so I get to experience being a stay at home mom - My hat comes off to ALL the stay at home moms out there! After 2 days I am exhausted and ready to go back to work, so relax!!



I am trying to keep it fun - we have been swimming in our blow up pools - followed by Allie's first Otter Pop - Em is an old pro and loves that more then the playing in the pool with mom!











We had some friends over today to play and have lunch - we were able to keep all the kids up til 1, so both mom's got a few hours of quiet time in the afternoon! And Em has decided her new tinkerbell costume is the only thing she will wear!!












And I have had fun trying to do new hair dos on Miss Allie Oop! Don't mind the dog dishes in the background, which is one of her favorite toys!!







Miss Em Turns 3!!

Here is our Birthday Girl with her Miss Spider Cupcakes




We had a little party for Em on Saturday - we blew up some pools, served some appetizers and pizza and just enjoyed ourselves!
It's hard to believe that 3 years ago we will still expecting Little Miss - she has blossomed and become some a wonderful little lady! She is fun and loving and always willing to give you a hug to make your day!
