Double your weight in four months!!

My sweet June Bug is growing up so fast. I wish she would just slow down a bit so I can soak it up. I'm trying my best to relish in each snuggle, each time I put her to sleep, each little gummy smile and each laugh ang giggle. I know I keep saying this about her but she is the best baby ever. She doesn't mind being on the go and adjusting to her environment. She went to the doctor this week and she weighed in at 14 lbs which is twice her birth weight. She was 50% for weight and 75% for height. The doc said she is little ahead of schedule since she is already rolling back to front and vice versa. I can already see it...she will be crawling by Valentine's!! She hit another milestone this weekend. She has enough head/neck control to be in her "entertain-her". She loves it and gets so excited when we start to put her in the seat. The older two love sitting on the floor and playing with her while she is in the exersaucer. I think they like pressing all the buttons more than she does. It is hard to believe that tomorrow I will be taking her 21 week picture.

Buggers got picked for our school's hair and fashion show. She loved every moment of it. She got to pick out her own dress at Belk. She even got to be the finale at the show. She did a great job strutting her stuff on stage. It made a momma very proud to see my little diva have so much fun!!

(Disclaimer: our school did this fashion show for educational purposes...it was to encourage some of our 8th graders who are wanting to pursue a career in cosmetology)

Tooth Fairy needs a key!

The Tooth Fairy has been frequenting our house quite a bit. Bubby is up to 4 teeth and suprisingly Buggers has lost one already. She lost it Octobe 13th at school. She was so excited. I'm not so sure there was another tooth pushing it way to the top...I think it became loose after she bit down on a juice box straw and it became wiggly.
Buggers was so excited to do the whole Tooth Fairy ritual...tooth goes into an envelope...envelope under pillow...sleep...wake up to written note from tooth fairy and a buck! She was so awed that the TF knew her name and wanted to know why the TF was proud of her for losing her tooth. She was so excited about the letter and money she took it to school for show and tell. Only to lose the dollar...she doesn't relaly know the value of the dollar so she didn't seem too upset. My favorite memory about Buggers losing her tooth is her vivid recall of what the TF looked like. She had bells on her toes, long blonde hair and smelled like strawberries. That girl and her imagination are something else!!

Bubby turns 6!!

The grand age of 6....life is all about playing video games, watching tv, playing with action figures, and believing that you are fully grown even thought you still need a nap and a 9 o'clock bedtime. Bubby is your typical active 6 year old. He loves Bakugans, Lego video games, and seeing how fast he can run up and down the hallway. However as he grows, he still has his moments when the "little" boy comes out. He still requests three things every night....water, Macy music, and to be snuggled. I hope he doesn't outgrow this anytime soon.
He had a wonderful birthday starting with his class party on Tuesday at Jumping -n- place. Then on his actually birthday we headed to Kaska Family Farm for a day of family fun.
