5 month old Jack and 3 year old Emma

My babies are growing up 😔. I find it hard to believe that she is three and Jack is 5 months. Where has the time gone?

I'll start with my sweet Emma. At her 3 year appointment she was 33 lbs and 38inches tall. Perfect in every way. No health issues. Healthy as can be and that is all I want! 
She is a thriving 3 year old. Full of energy I tell ya. She starts preschool in a few weeks! Twice a week for 3 hours. That will be so good for her because she is so active. She loves to play with other kids. She is doing gymnastics once a week. She really enjoys it. It teaches a lot of things like patience and rules and self discipline. Really good for stubborn children like her. Her favorite things to do are swimming, playing outside, dressing up like a princess and going to grants farm to feed the goats and other animals. I just love this little girl to pieces. She's so funny and can be the sweetest little thing around when she wants to be. She cuddled up next to me today and said "mommy I love you" for the first time. I always have to tell her I love her first but today she just said it on her own. She's is quite a master negotiator. She knows what she wants when she wants it and who to manipulate to get it. I love her strong determined personality. 

Jack was weighed in at 5 months because we had to go in for thrush. We both have it. No fun but I'm hoping the meds start working soon. Anyway, he was 17 lbs and 4 oz!!! He's headed to football practice next week lol! He eats like a champ. He's had solids a few times. The tongue thrust he has is still really strong so I have to keep revisiting it. He's doing well with it though. I imagine in a few weeks for sure he will be chowing down. Lots of drool these days. Teeth are for sure in our near future. He is taking 3 naps a day 2 small 30 min naps and 1, 2-3 hour nap. I try to get the long nap in at the same time Emma goes down but it rarely happens. Jumping in his jumperoo thing is his favorite thing to do other than eat lol. He's so sweet. He giggles and smiles like crazy.
