5 Months!

Kapri hit the 20 week mark last Friday and I feel like I just held her for the first time yesterday. It has been amazing watching her grow and because she is my second one, I have an idea as to what milestone she will hit next and I get too excited for her. She has been a text book baby and since she has been sleeping through the night I CANT complain about a thing! Not to mention she now takes her paci which makes the whole car seat situation none existent! (She hated her car seat and would SCREAM whenever she was in the car...the WHOLE time). This child (just like Micah) has a SMILE on her face all the time.

Some things that she is doing:
Rolling from front to back and vice versa (started doing that at 4 months)
Discovering EVERY pitch in her voice (really funny)
BUBBLES - Her saliva glands have kicked in and she loves making bubbles with the extra drool!

Micah has surprised me the most, as he LOVES his little sister. No matter what he is doing if she starts to cry or get fussy he runs right to her side and either pats her, or gives her a toy...it always follows with "don't worry baby girl, Micah's here". It melts my heart every time. Not to mention if she starts to cry all I have to do is tell Micah to come over, she stops immediately, she loves watching him play...he's a continuous moving target.

Here are a few pics!...sorry about the quality, it's my camera phone.

Hello & Goodbye to Sum•mer

sum·mer 1 ˈsəmər/ noun 1 .  the warmest season of the year, in the northern hemisphere from June to August and in the southern hemisphere from December to February. I just wanted to give myself a second to really think about this thing called summer. Anyone else think this definition is just a little bit vague? It's that time of year where we get all excited to have ZERO schedule, endless electronics, the chance to travel and cram in all of the fun you planned for all year long. Then when this so called "summer" ends, you feel bamboozled, like someone just waved that 4th of July pie you went to that party to specifically eat, right in front of your face only to look...not eat. Like seriously, it was here, right in front of my face, and now... it's gone. Now, now we pack lunch every night, we get our homework in (which I don't even understand), we figure out which parent is going to be the taxi for the day, we actually have to ...

Giving Thanks...Kapri's Surgery and Recovery.

You know that sinking, useless, hopeless feeling you get when one of your children are sick or hurt? Those feelings were almost more than I could take when I went to take Kapri in for her 15 month check up on Tuesday morning and ended up in surgery Tuesday night... A little over two weeks ago Kapri began to limp on her right leg and after noticing I kept an eye on it and it would differ day to day.  Sometimes it wasn't even noticeable as she would run back and forth from her brother or just in her play.  Other times is was so noticeable I found myself holding her more than I ever had (after she learned how to walk).  I decided that it was time to call the Dr. and see what his thoughts were.  So Friday (18th) we got her in. The typical questions like, did she fall, was she pushed at school, does she have a temp, etc.  Since NONE of these symptoms seemed to be the case he wanted me to just keep her on Motrin and since she had her 15 month check up on Tuesday (...

She Turned 7!

SEVEN, she did it again... who does she think she is trying to get another year older on us. In all seriousness, she is SEVEN. Like, what happened to 5 and 6? Let me tell you what 7 looks like on my little Pripri... Just a few things about this girl 1. Guess who her favorite person is...duh. Micah 2. She is soooo much more compassionate and caring than I could have ever imagined. 3. She might be 7, however her attitude screams teen! She is sensitive but oh so brave and she is never afraid to take on new adventures! 4. Her best friend is still, you guessed it, Maggie. 5. Right now she is playing softball (second season) and is having a ton of fun. Cheerleading is still on her brain, but for now, we will stick with this. 6. When she laughs, you can't help but laugh with her. Her laugh alone will make you light up. 7. Her favorite things include: Unicorns, Bear (her pink one), Unicorns, Mermaids, those fake glasses (see pic below), her American Girl Doll (pic above), Uni...
