E's 2 year old stats

E is 35 inches tall and 27 lbs.  That puts him in 68% for height and 44% for weight.  He is pretty solid too.


After we put the girls to bed last night we were hanging with him in our bed for a bit. (he naps and the girls esp Av are in school all day so need to go to bed earlier than him these days.)  He wanted to watch football with his daddy.  After a few minutes he looked at us and said, "let's go downstairs and watch football."  hehehe smart kid.  Trying to get as far from his bed as possible.

C's 4 year old stats

Well I was right.  Baby does have back.  hehehheh  She is 40.5 inches tall and 36 lbs.  That puts her in the 67% for height and 62% for weight.  I have never had a kid above 50% for weight.  It's all in her booty and thighs.  J says it is muscle.  I have to agree but boy is she built cute.  Very solid.  All the cloths wo modifying that never fit Av, fit C perfectly.

new stroller

Yesterday we were walking home from the bus stop in the am and it was COLD.  The kids were both slightly complaining.  We have been using our crappy double stroller bc we "lost" our good jogging stroller.  Don't ask not a story I am telling.  Anyway, I have missed it sooooo much and have been looking for a used one everywhere.  Finally we broke and I told J to order a new one.  It came this week and I was hopeful I could put it together since J was out of town but the wheels and such were not on it.  Sure I could have done it but I took one look and gave up.  So anyway as we were walking home I was talking about how excited I was for the new stroller and how I could run them home with it and how wonderful it would be with it.  C looked up at me and said, "then we will live happily ever after."  hehehehh Guess I was talking like life would be perfect with the new stroller!!!!

Fall Break

We had the BEST fall break.  It was so fun.  So sad it is over.  Little crazy that we still had such a nice extra long weekend since our camping plans were cancelled due to the weather not looking good at all. It started out Thursday night.  It was an awesome fall night.  After hbr I picked up dinner and we had a picnic at the soccer field.  We didn't have to rush home after soccer to do homework, baths and bed since no school the next day.  We hung around and then headed home.  The girls had been asking for a slumber party in each other's rooms so we decided it was a good night for that (BIG mistake!!!!).  They were up there for 1.5 hours playing and putting EVERY stuffed animal to bed they owned.  They came down and we had to come see.  It was cute.  Finally about 10 they were quiet.   WAY too late for the big weekend we had planned.  oops.  On top of that C was up with her first ever nightmare in the new house. There were snakes in her bed.  Finally the 3rd time she was up I carried Av back to her room.  I cleared off C's bed and turned the light on and that seemed to do the trick.

 Friday we lounged in PJs forever!!  It was sooooo nice.  Av's friend Makayla came over about noon.  They played for awhile.  J came home early so we could meet their other friend Noelle at the movies.  It was so cute.  The 3 of them are best buds.  After the movie we had a cookout to go to.  That was the first time Av really got to play with her new friend Maggie.  They became fast friends.

Saturday we had the walk, soccer and then another cookout.  Av's friend Maggie was at soccer and the second cookout.  After soccer Maggie was saying, "can I get a snack for Avery?"  (Av is not on the team so not supposed to be getting the soccer snacks)  The kids hung in there for all of this but they were sooooo tired. 3rd late night in a row.

Sunday we got up and did boot camp.  The 3 kids always go to jplay there.  Like a room with a babysitter.  But a lot of the older kids of the boot campers just hang out in the gym or the room next to the gym.  Av and C had never done it but Maggie and her sister were so we let Av and C.  They loved it!!  They ran around and hung with the big kids.  So 3rd day in a row Av played with Maggie.  E HATED jplay wo his sisters.  Poor thing.  Sunday night we went to Boo at the Zoo.  We where home and in bed on time last night.

Today I got up and went to 3 conferences.  I had a new girl from down the street come and watch the kids.  All 3 conferences went well.  Av is getting like an 80% in school right now I would say.  Only reason I am saying that is bc pretty much all the work her teacher kept and used as examples had 80% grades on them.  2 spelling tests which she had spelled the words right but her letters were bad so they were marked wrong.  Nit picky but I will take it!!!!!!!  Much better than things being wrong bc she is not getting it.  E and C are both doing great.  E had a bunch of the highest marks marked off on a chart for a 2 year old and for C they said she was socially doing great, a leader in the class and just doing great in  her class with all the kids that are older than her (she is the youngest by 3.5 months).  After that we left and went to Hubers with Marci.  J is out of town so we will be on our own all week (he left Sun night so we have been already for a bit) so we finished off the fall break on a great note with great friends!!!  The kids were sooo good tonight.  While I made dinner and packed lunches they had a pretend bday party for puppy, monkey and Doc.  Av wrote out invites and all.  It was so cute!!  I will miss her tomorrow she is something special.    Dinner, homework and baths finished out the night.  GREAT WEEKEND!!!!!
