Stats

I was "lucky" enough to be able to take all 3 kids to the Dr. last week for annual checkups. They pricked Grace and Jed's fingers to run blood tests, which was new for me. It was interesting. Jed went first and couldn't see what was going on. Then he watched Grace and I could see him losing color. I told him to leave the room and went out to find him 15 seconds later. He was white as a sheet and gagging. I had him start to put his head between his knees when he puked down the front of his shirt and in my hands. Thankfully there was a bathroom about 10 steps away, so we could both wash up. Poor Jed had go through the rest of the appt. with no shirt on. On the bright side, their blood work was great!! Jed was sad to get 4 shots and Liv ended up with 2. A night of fevers and Advil later and they were all better. Here are the current stats:

Grace
46" tall (can you believe she is almost 4 feet tall??)
46 pounds

Jed
42.5" tall
41 pounds
can not handle the sight of blood

Olivia
37" tall
32 pounds
believes you have to limp for 3 days after shots

At least they are all healthy and growing. Baby 4 is growing and will be coming on the 7th of February if I am induced, but lets all pray for an earlier day.

Miss Olivia turns 3!

Friday was Olivia's 3rd birthday. I seems unreal to me, but she was super excited. We dropped the older 2 off at school and came home to some fun girlie time. She is in love with pink right now, so we painted all her nails bright pink. As you can see, she was very happy about it. She also wanted to wear a dress so she looked extra pretty.
She chose to go to McDonalds for her birthday dinner, then we cames home, sanitized, and opened presents. Here she is digging in a box from grandma and grandpa.

What could be better than a pink and purple pillow pet???

She also requested a pink cake, so we had funfetti with pink frosting. I think she had a good day. On Saturday we took her to get her ears pierced. She loves them, and of course, chose PINK flowers.
