Happy 2nd Birthday Emily June!

January 26, 2014 you turned TWO YEARS OLD! Where has the time gone?



You are such a little spunky girl. We love you so much and you are truly proving to be your own girl, following a lot of what your sisters do but then also beating to your own drum and letting everyone know it! You can be very challenging and defiant at times and often Daddy and I say that you are more persistent than the triplets combined. You can be very stubborn and easily your favorite word to say is "no"...


But you are also one of the sweetest and most cuddly girls we know. You love to help and often do so well listening to directions.


You are wearing size 4 or 5 shoe (still have little feet!).
You wear size four diaper.


You wear anywhere from 18 months to 2T in clothing.
You are solid, and very strong.


Your eyes are brown.
Your hair is getting darker each month that goes by and is brown.


You weigh 25.6 lbs (60%) and are 34 inches tall (50%). (02.12.14)
Everything at your two year check up was perfect...


You love milk and water. You drink so much water!
You love all fruits and veggies, there isn't anything you won't eat.
You aren't a fan of meat yet, though.


You love all sweets and often finish your sisters food.
You feed yourself everything, with very little help from Mommy or Daddy.


You love your naps and sleep all night in your crib still. You have only climbed out a few times and that was it, surprisingly. 
You have a pink lovie and a pooh bear that are your favorite things.


You can pretty ask for anything you want and you speak so well for your age.
But, when you throw a temper tantrum, you do it with might.


You are really smart. You pick up things so fast. You love to watch your sisters but often times you just find your own way to do something and that is it. You love to color and do arts and crafts but you also love to throw the ball and play tee-ball! 


You love to be outside and go for rides in the car. You love the park, slides, the sand box and the swings. You would swing all day if you could, just like your sisters.


You love animals and you definitely love "horsies" the most!

Your 2nd Birthday Party

You also had a Minnie Mouse Birthday Party because you love Minnie Mouse so much, just like your sisters.

You had lots of friends and family come to your party and you loved being the center of attention! We had some activities and of course lots of good food!



















Nana with all her granddaughters!


Your sweet cousin, Alexandra!



Natalee being such a goof!

Madelynn and Grammy and Papa!
We love you big girl!

Madelynn, Claire and Natalee: You are THREE!

I cannot believe that my babies are THREE years old! Ah! Where has the time gone?! It seems it was only yesterday that I was sitting on the OR table getting ready to meet them! I want to give an update on what the girls have been up to and what they are into since I last updated on them, which was forever ago! That will be a separate post coming soon!

On their actual birthday, Monday, December 23rd, we just had a low-key day. The girls were still recovering from their super-fun filled weekend of their birthday party and seeing Santa. We had pizza for dinner (their favorite!) and then of course sang happy birthday to them and had cake. If you notice in the photos, when the candles are all lite, we were all singing to them. Then Natalee blew her candles out in one second and it took Maddy and Claire like forever to blow them out. By the last photos, Natalee was getting impatient, and it looks like she was thinking, come on, just blow them out already!!!!!! Her expressions are so funny!







Natalee: Yay!!!

Here let me help you blow them out, since it's taking you forever!

Now this is just getting ridiculous, I want to eat my cake already!!
I snapped a million some photos of them and they opened their presents from Mommy and Daddy. We got them light-up Minnie Mouse watches. They love clocks and so I knew they would love having their very own big-girl watch. I was right, too, they sure love them and wear them all the time. Between their birthday party and Christmas, these girls were SPOILED rotten! All of their friends who came to their party we so very generous in their wonderful gifts!!


My big-girl twinsies!

 Natalee WOULD NOT stand next to her sisters. I tried a million times and bribed her with a million things...nope wasn't going to happen!




Claire



Every time Maddy would open a gift, she would say what it was and then scream, "whahooooo". EVERY.TIME! So this photo was her saying, "minnie mouse...whahooooooo!"





Probably the best photo out of the 300 I took in five minutes!
