Today I am the mother of a 2 month old and also a 3 year old! My how time flies by. Even though I stay at home everyday with my girls and rarely miss anything I still feel as though time is slipping away from us!! Some say you blink and before you know it they are all grown up, this is so true! Most of the time children are with their parents for at least 18 years (Some longer) and when you say that it sounds like you have so much time with them but in reality 18 years isn't quite enough! My prayer for my girls are they continue to grow is that they will not only have a wonderful relationship with God but also with Trey & I! That we will always stay a close family!
Kendal @ age 2 months-- You are growing like a weed little girl. When people ask how old you are and I say 2 months they get the weirdest expression. You are such a chunky little thing! This week you have to go back for your monthly checkup and I am anxious to see what you weigh now! Not happy that you have to get shots this visit though. Especially with daddy being gone! It's hard for a mommy to watch their babies hurt! I think big sissy has to get shots too if that makes you feel any better. She will for sure scream & cry! Today you sat in the bumbo for the first time & did great for about 15 mins before your neck started to get tired! You hold your head up so good for your age! You are also very alert and love for people to talk to you. You have the most adorable smile and can almost laugh out loud. I am looking forward to hearing a sweet little giggle! You are still taking 4 ounces of formula about every 2-3 hours so sometimes we still do rice. You are a wonderful sleeper as well. Usually you go to sleep about 8:30 to 9:00 and most of the time you sleep till about 6:30. Every once in a while you will get up at 3:30 to eat. You love to be held, you would sleep forever if I would just sit up and hold you! The other night you slept the entire night and didn't wake up till 8:40am! You must of been exhausted! Your bunny is still your sleeping buddy and you won't hardly go to sleep without it. You sometimes take a pacifier but are not a big fan of it.You survived Sea World at the age of 6 weeks and did a great job. You got a little fussy when you got hot but for the most part you just slept! That night we watched a fireworks show and you absolutely loved that! Last week you also went to your first fair! Monday we went with daddy and family and you loved to look at all the lights. Thursday we went with your cousins Bay & Bo. Although it rained on us most of the night you were such a trooper! Friday was your first football game to attend and you slept nearly the whole game then too! Even when people yelled and the bands played! You have already gone and done so much for your age! Looking forward to the next month with you as well!
Peyton @ age 3-- Today is your birthday and I couldn't be more proud of the little lady that you have become! I have enjoyed watching you grow these past couple of years! You are so sweet, full of life and attitude. Right now your favorite food is sausage and mac & cheese. Your favorite song is the Pontoon song and man can you work those hips while listening to it. LOL. You are quite the little dancer! You still love to watch Dora but now we can actually watch other shows too. "G" is still and will always be your best friend, you still sleep with him every night. Mommy is trying to break you of having him during the day and so far you are doing better. The other day you went to church and we accidentally left him at home and you still did great! You didn't even ask for him! I was so proud!! You go to sleep every night with apple juice and G. Of course you sleep at night and most of the time we have to come wake you up in the mornings because you would sleep all day if we would let you! You are a great sleeper!! You are still doing gymnastics and you are very good at it. You just moved up to the big girl class and you are excelling in there very fast! You always ask if you can be a cheerleader when you get older and nothing would make Mommy more proud... well maybe if you had that same love for softball when you get older. lol jk! You are so smart at the age of 3 that it is almost scary. You can work the iphone better than most adults can and you love to listen to pandora and watch you tube. I will catch you sometimes in the bedroom talking and you will be on the phone with your daddy. I have no idea how you even know when name is his to push! This year you attended your 3rd fair and were finally old enough to ride the rides. Mommy thought you might be scared but you wanted to ride everything! You did almost ever ride you could and did it all by yourself!! You loved Sea World as well and did excellent there! You liked to watch the shows and have talked about the whale and dolphins ever since. You have such an imagination and have started telling such funny stories! You like to tell stories about the farmers market and puppy dogs! LOL. Daddy and I are so proud of you and pray that you continue to excel in all that you do! Happy 3rd Birthday Peyt Rae!!
