Catch up post

We have been busy, busy, busy!  Bridget had her 3 year check up a few days ago and is still in the 25th% for weight and 50th% for height.  Daddy took her to to the checkup so I don't have her actual stats.  Based on her growth patterns, they estimated her full grown height at around 5'6", which is my height (Audrey's was estimated at 5'9").

Last weekend, Audrey got to try on her recital costume.  Her class is dancing to songs from Tangled, so they have a purple Rapunzel dress.  Audrey was the first one to try hers on and another mom and I were commenting on how short the dresses were.  Once the other kids put theirs on, it became apparent that it was only short on my tall daughter - the tutu came almost to the other girls knees!

Here is a sneak peak of her leap and pose.  Sorry it's so shaky - little sis was on my lap.

After ballet we had the neighborhood egg hunt.  Bridget had her face painted like a bunny - a very serious bunny.



On Sunday we took the canoe out and paddled around the Chattahoochee near the dam.  Audrey proved herself to be my daughter - she was so excited to go and had fun for the first half hour or so, then the complaining started.  "Don't go over there, the water is too deep."  "Don't get too close to that rock."  "It's really hot, let's start heading to the dock."  "Don't you think we should head to the dock before it gets dark?"  It was about noon, so I think we had plenty of time!  She also sat and ate all of the snacks that I had packed.  By the time Bridget wanted something to eat, we didn't have anything left!

This past week was spring break.  I scheduled the girls dentist appointments for Thursday and took the day off with the intention of doing something fun with them.  We had it all planned to go to the zoo, then Audrey woke up that morning at 1 am and threw up her entire dinner.  She threw up once more before passing out in my bed and then felt fine when she woke up.  We ate breakfast, packed up a bag of snacks and such for the zoo and headed on to our dental appointment.  About 5 minutes from the dentist, Audrey threw up her breakfast all over my car.  Since the dentist is near Grandma and Papa's house, I called them and asked them to get their shower ready for Audrey and I dropped her off there and sped back over to the dentist so at least Bridget would make her appointment.  It was her first time going so they let me go back with her.  The hygienist let her play with all of the instruments and chatted with her about silly stuff - Bridget did great and the dentist said that her teeth were perfect.  We will try again with Audrey next week.

Here are a couple of photos from my phone.  This is what happens when Daddy is in charge.

Where's Amos?

On the way home from daycare, Audrey asked me to hand her back some sunglasses and lipstick so she can look like me.  I turned around and it was like looking in a mirror.  ;)
