Fun with a Hat!

I found this hat in one of my craft bins today... I knitted it about 4 years ago! Liliana was wearing it and I tried it on Elia too...

A Fun-Filled Day Indoors

Elia is telling her big sister a story... "ooh"
"I think I am ready for my morning nap."

Liliana traced her own hands and made them into turkeys and then painted them under a rainbow! Beautiful!
The kids LOVE to paint!
I am beginning to see a resemblence here! Wow!

Today...like all days...full of LOVE and fun!


Her big sister is making her smile!

Holding and eating her bunny... hehe!
I helped Liliana and Noah make crowns today... Daddy is wearing Noah's... we are watching a movie or something and they are simultaneously eating handfuls of popcorn. Ha!

First Big Playdate on the Floor!

Our big girl started sitting on the couch to hang out with the gang a few weeks ago, but today we officially made her first playdate on the floor with big brother & sister. So she now has added a couple new chillin' spots to bring variety to her busy days!




Later in the day after Noah had placed his Thomas blanket on Elia (he LOVES to share stuff with her), he came to me with piece of paper asking me to make a hat for Elia. What a special sweet brother! She has a special love in her eyes for him already!

The SWEET Scoop - 2 Months

Elia had her 2 month well-visit with her doctor on Monday and she weighed in at 13 pounds 3 ounces and 22 1/2inches long! She grew one inch in one month! She is in the 95th percentile in weight, 50th in height. The doctor commented on how strong and sturdy she is and on how great her head control is for her age. :o) All three of the kids were this way... big, strong, and sturdy. AWE!!!

Here she was smiling at Liliana.

I love those baby boxer moves... she loves doing the jaw-jabber...or whatever it is called... lol!



Here she is watching Liliana sing to her!



Look at those blue eyes! They are a BEAUTIFUL clear water blue. I think she has my eye shape, my lips (totally) and chin and Donnie's nose ears and hairline.

This one makes me tear up it is SO SWEET!!! She is smiling and "goo-ing" at Liliana's made up songs! Pure Love!

Grandma Sends us some FUN!

Grandma has a special gift for picking out THE COOLEST toys for the kids!
This mixer was on for about 3 hours straight after it left it's box.

I helped them concoct a disgusting pancake from scratch...
...and they ate every bit of it!!! They were SO proud of cooking all by themselves with their new mixer!

Thank you, Grandma, for the awesome new pj's! We LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND MISS YOU BIG TIME!!! XOXOXOX
