presley's hair, maryn's meals.

Presley loves it when her mom fixes her hair with a roll brush.

maryn is too petite for this family, so we are having to feed her big kid food.

Maryn Jane...

Alright so for those of you who have children, you can understand how we worry about everything when it comes to our babies. Maryn had her 4 month well check today, which for her is actually only days away from her turning 5 months. She weighs a whopping 11 lbs 7 oz !! She is in the 3rd percentile for weight and 20th for height. What in the world !! I have never had a tiny baby ! Knox and Pres were always in the 90th when they were infants. She did grow almost 2 inches so the Dr. said he would be more concerned if she hadn't grown as much length wise. I was wanting to stop nursing soon and it seems she isn't getting what she needs from me anyway. The Dr. suggested that we supplement at least one bottle a day and start giving her rice cereal twice a day just for calories, this girl needs to beef up ! And since she only poops every 7-8 days he said its probably because her little body is using everything that she gets from me and has very little waste product. Any way- here are some pics of all of my babies at 4-5 months.

So this is a 3 month onsie on our 5 month old baby :)

Happy New Year !!

HA ! Happy New Year ! Even though it is the 19th of January this is my first post of 2010. We spent New Year Eve with our friends from the quad in the basement and let the kids run. They did great, no melt downs and they all stayed awake. Bryan is in his LAST semester of his undergrad degree. We are super excited to be done !! Presley is back in school too and she is still doing so well. She is writing so well. Knox is my big boy, he is such a smart kid. Maryn started rolling over today, belly to back. I guess the days of laying her on the couch are coming to an end. Bry and I are doing well sticking to our marathon training program. It has been really difficult to find time to do it though. I ran at 9pm tonight and Bry at 10:15pm, makes for long days. Anyway- nothing has really been going on so here are some fun pics....Enjoy !

Presley went to a birthday party and they did hair, I was a little worried, but they curled what she has and it made her so happy.
