Juliet's 9 month Check Up

Juliet is 9 months!  I know, that is sooo 2 weeks ago.  Seeing as her 9 month and Matty's 3 year check ups were so close, we decided to do them together today.  They were both fantastic at the doctor's office and no tears were shed.  They both even managed to get away without any shots--yippee! 

Just as I suspected, Juliet is becoming gigantic!  Just look at these chubby cheeks:

These are her stats: 

Height:  27 inches (40th percentile)

Weight:  16 lb 11 oz (15th percentile)

Ok, so maybe she isn't gigantic, but she is our chubby bunny compared to when we first met her:

Matty's 3 Year Check Up

It's hard to believe Matty is already 3.  It feels like he's practically ready to head off to college.  Ok, well not really yet, but he is heading off to preschool in the fall which makes his mommy both very happy and very sad at the same time.

We had his 3 year old check up today and he is doing great and growing like crazy.  Here are the stats:

Height:  38 3/4 in (75th percentile)

Weight:  33 lb (65th percentile)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATTY!!

Matty turns 3 today!!  Goodbye terrible twos (I wouldn't say it was terrible) and hello terrific 3s!

He is no longer a toddler and now a full fledged little kid!  We love our energetic, silly boy!

Here is our traditional birthday montage of the past year.  Look at how big he is getting!

We love you Matty!

2 Days and Counting...

In just 2 days, Matty is going to be 3!  I can't believe it! 

He is getting to be such a little person--here are some of the things he says that crack us up:

"Mommy, my friend Daddy is home!"  (said every night when Daddy gets home!)

"Um, I'll probably have...<insert food item>"  (when asked what he would like to eat)

"Is dinner ready?  Hooray!"

Bringing Mommy over to Daddy... "Tell Daddy I have stock"  (When Daddy was joking with Matty that he put too much stock in what Mommy said.)

Time for a Sail

Juliet is a very lucky girl.  She has lots of people who love her and has been the super lucky recipient of cute and stylish clothes--she got some even before she was born!  Every once in awhile, I scan her closet and dresser to make sure we haven't missed anything.  This week, I found an outfit that I had been waiting for her to fit in to..finally it fits her perfectly! 

Juliet is 9 months now.  This outfit says "3 - 6 months".  I can't wait to find out her growth stats at the doctor next week.  I think she is enormous, but maybe not.... :-)

(Thanks Aunt Kim and Uncle Mike!)

Let Sleeping Babes Lie?

Juliet fell asleep in her crib for her morning nap.  When she quieted down, I went it to check on her and this is what I found. 

Hmmm.  How is her hand hanging on to the side of her crib?

 Is this really comfortable??  (Or safe??)

 Don't worry--after taking some pics, I moved Juliet to a better sleeping position.  She didn't mind at all.

Terminator

Matty loves to put on hats, masks, glasses, anything and everything.  He found this pair of sunglasses at his cousin's house and couldn't resist wearing them around.

I think he looks like the Terminator..."I'll be back!"
