Check up

We had our 18 month well-check (at 20 months...oops) and here are the stats:



This strapping young lad is 24 lbs 3 oz and 34 inches long. He's such a big dude that he didn't even cry when he got a shot. That's my boy.



And this princess is 24 lbs 4 oz and 33 inches tall. She blubbered like a girl when she got her shot. I don't think she cried because it hurt, it was more the anticipation. She clearly remembered what happened last time because the moment we put her on the table to be measured, she started yelling "all done, all done". She was not a fan of the entire process.

But they are both healthy so no complaints from mom!!

Splashy

Aaron sleeps through everything. And he doesn't have rain boots so he probably would've missed out on this anyway. Stella is living it up in the most ridiculous outfit...EVER.


Trying to jump but she hasn't reached this milestone yet. Jumping with both feet off the ground is a hard thing to accomplish.


Running like a mad woman.


She went too far and got her hands dirty. I should have put dish washing gloves on her. And I let her do this just after she had her bath. I must be mental.

Stella and Taffi

We spent Easter in Winston-Salem with family. Her cousins, Matt and Will have a lovely and very patient cat named Taffi. Stella was enamored with Taffi over Christmas but now her love is in full bloom. She couldn't leave the cat alone. But to Taffi's credit, she tolerated Stella for a long time even when her tail was pulled and her ears poked.

Moving in to touch noses

Supermodels

I like to wrap them both in towels as they are coming out of the tub.


Just gotta suck in the tummy.


Mom, I am runway ready!


No pictures! I have to practice.


Bryant Park, here I come!!

Hanging with the Blosfeld's

Could they be any more comfortable?


I don't know. Where ARE my pants?


Snuggling with Uncle Chris and future prom date, Ajay.

Ok Aaron, you put this on too!

Easter Pt. 1

We've had a lot of rain lately but our prayers were answered with good weather on Saturday for the Decatur Easter egg hunt. I'm always amazed at how many kids are living within a 10 mile radius of us but when everyone is out in full force, you begin to wonder how they all fit in the schools around here.

The babies had no idea what was going on but they were both very happy to be out in the sunshine. Stella eventually caught on but she's never really had candy so collecting it wasn't really a priority for her.


I'm not sure she heard that the hunt is on!


She's got it!

Aaron wanted nothing to do with his duck basket. All he saw were kids running around trailing balloons so he began chasing them. I could barely keep up with him.


I can't believe these people didn't get me a balloon. I'll go get one myself I guess...


Candy? I know not of what you speak.


Oh wait, there's one. Gotta go mom.
