I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while. I'm not gonna lie, I don't remember the day to day through the end of April but people brought us meals every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. When our friends the Grubbs brought us a meal, we had them stay and eat it with us and the Caldwells had us come to their house to eat dinner instead of bringing it. The month of May included two Birthday parties we attended, both boys turning three. We also went to the pediatrician for Libby's 1 month well-check. She weighed 8 lbs. 12 oz and was 21 1/2 inches tall. That put her in about the 30th percentile for weight and head circumference and the 50th for height. I've never had such a big baby before, she's already starting to wear 0 - 3 month clothes.

| Her hair gets kind of puffy after baths |
 |
| Haley loves to cuddle with her |
 |
| Another post-bath shot, she looks kind of mad, haha |
 |
| Another one of Haley and Emily cuddling |
The first Birthday party we went to had a superhero theme and the favors were superhero masks and capes.
 |
| They got to arrive in costume, Haley was pretty excited about that. She had a great time. |
 |
| Emily had a good time too |
 |
| They tried to get a picture of all the kids with superman but it didn't really work out. |
May also included Mother's day! Dave had to work so that kind of put a damper on the day actually. He did rally the children together and they made me a mother's day cake. I also got a necklace pendant with the girl's names on it which I just love. Mother's day evening we had the Yeakley's, Grubbs, and Feenstra's over to play games.

| My mother's day cake. Apparently Haley picked out the colors. |
 |
| Also, sometime in May, Haley and Emily took baths and acted silly |
 |
| Emily especially |
 |

 |
| I'm not sure why this one is upside down |
 |
| The girls watching presents get opened at the other Birthday party |
 |
| Last Sunday the girls wore matching outfits from Amanda Caldwell |
 |
| They were pretty excited about it |
 |
| Random picture of Emily being weird |
It has started getting hotter down here and we've gone to the splash pad a couple times. The big splash pad that we usually go to is no open yet because they are adding on to it so we went to a smaller one at a different park.
 |
| Haley braving the cold water while Emily watches on |
 |
| Libby has taken some nice naps while at the splash pad |
 |
| Haley insists on wearing her bathing suit from last year and it is almost always riding up in a permanent wedgie. |
A video of them playing
Haleyism:
Every night we ask Haley to share prayer requests before we pray and put the girls down for bed. More recently she has consistently been requesting that we pray that Emily will not hit or bite or pinch and be nice to her. By the way, Emily does not do those things very often and only when provoked.
Emilyism:
Emily likes to yell mommy and daddy repeatedly until we are right in her face asking her what she wants. She is not satisfied with us simply acknowledging her, she wants us to come up to her and be inches away before she will stop yelling our names.
Libbyism:
Libby has not pooped since Monday (today is Friday). We're all gearing up for a big one.
I love the identical dresses!! How cute!! Reminds me of my childhood!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to get there and meet Libby!
See you soon!
Haley's so funny! She hates underwear and pants but prefers a swimsuit wedgie...stinker!
