2 month check

So we were a little late with R's 2 month well baby check. Better late than never!!
I am really not sure why it ended up being so late this time but hey we are done.

She did great! She got 3 seperate shots and was a trooper. Of course she turned beat red and was pissed but its worth it in the end knowing that we have protected our baby from some really horrible things!

Her stats were:
Length: 23 3/4 inches (93%)
weight: 12 lbs 2 oz (86%).

Our pediactrician says she is built like a supermodel.

I'm a Big Girl Now!

Sunday was the beginning of a new chapter for K.
While I was down at the kitchen table tutoring (the girls were in for naps.. or so I thought) I heard the noise of a doorknob jiggling. I dismissed it thinking that I was just hearing things but a few seconds later K's door opens and out she walks.
Remember she is supposed to be in her CRIB taking a nap!
Yup, it happened... she climbed out of her crib for the first time.
So... when daddy came home we went out and let K pick out the bedding for what will become her toddler bed.
Of course she chose the Disney Princess (yes, that was the choice over Dora).
So home we went to put it all together.....
went from this.....


to this.....

My big girl is now in a new bed and she LOVES it!!!

Glucose Tolerance Testing....

Ahhh a sigh of relief!!!

I had not heard from my Doctor about my 2 hour glucose test that I had done last week. This was a requirement since I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes when I was pregnant. I was starting to get a little worried and thought about calling my doctor to check on it but it was a case of... if I know then I have to do something about it.

Well, in the mail today I got the results. I guess I did not get a call because at my 2 hour I my levels were 85!!!!

I AM DIABETES FREE!!!!!

My little helper!

One thing about me is that I do enjoy baking. I do not do it often anymore but I like it when I have time to. When the big boys were younger I would make their birthday cakes and they would turn out pretty good (in my opinion). Now with 4 kids here most of the time, I do not have much time to do anything let alone bake.

But...

A few nights ago, I decided to make some cupcakes. YUMM YUMM... All of a sudden I had a little helper by my side.

I pulled up a chair and started to make the batter (from the box)....

Kennedi poured the water and oil in the bowl and helped me mix...

After she learned the best part of the cake making process....

you guessed it....

licking the bowl!!


and she seemed to like it!!
