6 Months!

 Where has the time gone?!? Can not believe this lil munchkin is already a half a year old. 

We had a great doctor appointment, despite her already being sick. 

Weight: 16 pounds 7.5 ounces (50%)

she may be our lil chunky monkey but is growing at almost the same pace as her big sister :)

Height: 26 1/4 inches (50-75%)

Head: 42.5 cm (50%)

Margaret at 6 Months: 15 lbs 2 oz and is 26 inches long.

She is not a napper. She takes several cat naps. Every now and then she will sleep almost an hour and half but that's once in a blue moon. She was sleeping pretty good at night but since she has been sick the last two weeks she hasn't been sleeping as well. 

She loves to read books with her big sister

She is doing such a great job sitting up. She leans forward like she is ready to take off. NO THANK YOU!!! Not ready for that :)

She loves sweet potatoes and butternut squash. Not a fan of avocados and acorn squash. When she has been given fruits, she gets a rash on her temple so we are staying clear of fruits for now and will try them again in a month or so. 

A fun new toy! (well for Simms :) she loves to go backwards just like Margaret did. 

Daddy told me she said momma this morning before I got up. I have yet to hear the first word but can't wait :)

 She is such a happy and smiley lil girl. We are so blessed!

Home Away from home

Easter weekend was the start of 2 very LONG weeks. Margaret got a nasty sinus infection and was very kind to share it with Simms. We headed to the doctor for medicine. Margaret unfortunately continued to run a fever for days. It was a long week for poor M but she slowly started getting better. Simms another story. Back to the doctor we for her 6 month. A big mistake getting her shots. She ran a high fever for a few days and had a small reaction to the shot. Well with only one day left on medicine, horrible cough and trouble breathing we headed back on Friday. They changed her medicine and we are still waiting for the morning where we all wake up feeling well rested and no more runny nose and congestion!!!

Happy Easter

Rise and Shine!

Mommy look what the Easter Bunny brought me!

Margaret unfortunately was running a fever Saturday afternoon so we did not make it to Sunrise service :(

Instead Simms and I made monkey bread while daddy and Margaret slept in. We had a fun relaxing morning.

On your mark, get set, GO!

Lil monkey feeling better.

Memo and Papa joined us for a low key (thrown together :) brunch.

That night we headed to Mimi's for a bunny hunt and dinner!

Practice makes perfect

Margaret had fun hunting eggs with her buddies at school. Afterwards we enjoyed a yummy picnic lunch with the whole family. Thanks again daddy for bringing lunch. XOXO

The Bryan's came over for a fun egg hunt and dinner

The girls had fun finding all the eggs

All ready for Easter Sunday :)

2 year appointment

Margaret had a great appointment. Dr Kim was very impressed with her sentences and told me I have a lil 3 year old on my hands :)

Weight: 25 pounds

Height: 34.5 inches

"Hollywood"

She's growing up so fast and saying the cutest things. She is continuously telling me "mommy that's a good idea," and when Simms wakes up, its "hey baby girl". Love her to pieces!

Thank you daddy for coming to the appointment and helping me with the girls.

Spring Break

Catch up time . . .

been contemplating whether or not to continue because to be honest finding time is nearly impossible and not sure if anyone reads this but I have really enjoyed looking back and comparing the girls so for now I will sit here in the peace and quiet and blog away . . . with a big glass of wine :)

We had a low key spring break but there is nothing wrong with that. We took lots of walks to the park.

Ready for some fun pool days!

We had lots and lots of tea parties

Thank you Gigi for my birthday present!

Fun lunch date with the Cannon's. We sure do miss the club!!!

Dad took a morning off and headed to the zoo with us

Feeding the giraffes

Was a lil nervous having both girls all to myself but we survived!! How couldn't I with this cutie :)
