Charlie Swimming Lessons

My little boy (almost 4!) is a fish. Well, actually, according to his swim lesson level a "blowfish." In 2 lessons, they were able to get him to go under water, jump with both feet off the side of the pool and pop back up and swim back to the side of the pool all without the help of the instructor. Seriously, I could not get him to blow bubbles more less go under the water! I am such a silly proud mama! I will post pictures if my "angelic" daughter would allow me to grab the camera for a moment. These lessons are expensive, but he is working so hard and making amazing progress. I am so proud of my cute little man!

Carrie-15 months

Image
weight: 19lbs 11oz (yeah, she is skinny!).  27 percentile Height: 30.5" 50 percentile Tiny and adorable, that is Carrie. Her 15 month appointment was today, here is where she is at. Sleeping Fabulous! Goes to bed at 7:30 and wakes up around 7am or so. So anywhere between 11-12 hours of straight sleep. She naps once a day from about 12:30-3:30. She does not cry or fight bedtime one bit, yet. Eating Also fabulous. I think we are still in honeymoon phase, but she eats like a champ, but apparently has a high metabolism because she sure is not high on the weight chart. I still nurse her 2 times a day, when she wakes and before going to bed. Her favorite food is definitely cheese and red grapes and almost all fruits. She adores cake also! Ha! She has started to throw the food off the tray. This is of course egged on by the brother who says, no no Carrie, and she continues to get his attention! We just take the food away and say all done. She normallly does this toward the end of the mea...

So here is my little princess, almost 15 months old and cuter everyday. I will do a 15 month update at some point, but enjoy these cute smiles! Someone loves her babies! She was sick, and I got a picture of her sleeping. So cute! Helping with laundry.

Quite good at this! Backwards sommersault. Trampoline and presenting! Boat ride! Balancing through the doghouse Hanging around So great! I was a proud mama today, that is for sure! He has made significant progress and next fall we will probably put him back in again.
