Girls checkups

Brie had her 3 year old checkup. She weighs 23 lbs. She told the doctor I'm coming for my checkup but I don't want a shot. we just signed her up for dance class and she is so excited.

Braelyn had her 15 mos checkup. She weighs 16 lbs 5 oz. She says hi Dada, cracker, go, sissy, Nana, papa, uh oh, ouch. She moos like a cow, crows like a rooster, rufs like as puppy. She knows her nose, eyes, toes, and head. Shw waves her finger and says no no, and ew, hi and hello. she is trying to get a few more teeth.She also was my brave girl and got two shots. Rae is my climber on everything I cant turn my back for a second. She also now scoots on her bum down the stairs and wants to eat everything by herself.

Alturas Lake

We had the opportunity to go on a vacation to alturas lake.  We had lots of fun staying in a cabin, sharing meals, playing in Stanley and Red Fish lakes. Also we got to go to natural hot pools, hiking and playing with family. It was beautiful and we had fun. It was a lot of driving 4.5 hours one way due to the fires. The girls did really well and had fun in the water. Brie loved canoeing and swinging.

Brie is 3

     It's hard to believe three years ago I brought home my first baby. We really had no idea what we were doing, which is like most new parents. We learn more and more every year and are taught just as much.  Brie is our big helper and her vocabulary is sure growing. My favorite expressions lately "please just one drink water" "I'm ready to listen" "Brie is sorry I love u" "calm down" "im not talkin to u, im talking to bries sister" last night she said "stop teasing me lol"I love how she sings "I am a child of god and strawberry shortcake" she is all the way potty trained a few weeks ago she decided on her own no more pull ups.  She wanted a strawberry shortcake party. We had strawberry glasses and murals. the kids did pin the strawberry. We had cake and cupcakes, strawberry lemonade, ordered pizza and had a huge water fight.  we were also very proud of Brie she has been scared of fire and candles and blew hers out. I think the adults had more fun than the kids. We had a lot of fun and appreciated all that came
