18 Months Old!

One year and half...that's how old our Allie girl is. This month was a transition for Allison, we have taken her completely off bottles.  She was down to bottles only in the morning and before bed, but that's also the only way she would drink milk. Now, she refuses milk when it's in a sippy cup! She does like to drink water and juice, so she's still getting hydration. The other change for Allison is that her big sister moved to a different school this month. Allison still continues to look around for her Abigail, but we know she'll adjust. Allison's vocabulary continues to grow and she continues to jabber in a language that we don't understand. It will be interesting to see when she can speak well, what she's been saying all this time!

Birthday Party

This weekend Abigail was invited to her friend, Isaac's birthday party. Isaac's mom was kind enough to include Allison in the invitation so both girls got to go. Isaac is actually from Abby's old school, but we are trying to keep in touch with her old friends. The party was at the Monkey House, so the girls had a blast. Allison insisted to sit with the big kids while they ate pizza and cake.

 

Abigail is still adjusting to kindergarten. She comes home after school and is hungry and exhausted. We are reading every night as part of her homework and practicing writing our name. It seems that she's already learned so much in just one week time! We can't imagine what it'll be like at the end of the school year.

First Day of Kindergarten!

Abigail started kindergarten! She has been so excited to start at her new "big kid" school. We were surprised at how easily she said goodbye to us when she was in the unfamiliar classroom, with the unfamiliar kids. When she got home, she told us how much she loved her new school!

Much Love,

5 Year and 17 Month Check-Ups

Abby and Allie went to the doctor this week. Abigail was having her 5 year check up and Allison was having a follow-up to her 15 month check up. Last time she went in, she was too ill to get her shots, so we rescheduled for the same time as sissy's check-up. Both girls had to get shots and it was not a good deal. Abigail does not like shots at all, but she went first to show sissy how to handle it. Then when it was Allie's turn Abby was calling support to her the whole time. After the shots we left and both girls got slushies...one of their favorite treats! We are very happy to report that both girls are happy and health. Allison was in the 99th percentile and Abigail is over 44" tall! Wowza!

Much Love,
