I love you!
Me and G
--mom really struggles to get a good picture of both of us together, I don't know why? we are both so cooperative!Me being super silly...
Me at almost 4 1/2 years old

Gage 10 months old

Dancing in my new found shades! I'm pretty much a rockstar!
Me and Emma being Diva's! Don't you love how my sunglasses are way to small? I just found those and want to wear them all the time.
Happy G man!
We got some snow and I was super excited to make a snow angel. I wanted to make a snowman but there just wasn't enough snow. But I did get to make several angels. I got my outfit REALLY wet and it took 15 mins to get dressed and I only stayed outside for 3 mins but it was fun! Gage and Mom stood at the window and watched me, Mom says Gage is too tiny to come out play in the snow.
This month was Popaw's Birthday!!!! A PARTY!!!!! Well kinda, not a party like for my birthday apparently when you get old you just want to eat out as your party, I totally do not get that. But anyway, it's Popaw's Birthday so he gets to pick and he picked El Rodeo. Surprise Surprise! It was good and G man ate a lemon and loved it! Gross!
G man and Puppy taking a nap! He LOVES his puppy so much! I don't know what mom and dad will do if he ever loses puppy...maybe they should look for a replacement?
I don't know if you know or not but I HAD a habit of playing with my hair--ALL THE TIME!!! Mom and Dad were about tired of it and had told me about 12,000 times to stop. But it was a habit and it takes drastic measures to break a habit. I had saw these new Lego Friends on tv and I really wanted them . They are girl Lego's. So dad made me a deal...if I could stop playing with my hair for a day and a half, he would buy me some. Guess what? I took him up on that! I really wanted these. I slipped up once or twice during the day and a half process but quickly corrected myself. I got the beauty salon and it is super cool! Dad says if I start playing with my hair he will take my Lego Friends away, this is going to be a work in progress people!

New Years Eve Party

2012-01-10T04:22:00.000-08:00

I got invited to a New Year's Eve Party at my friends Layla and Lilly's house. I've never been to a New Year's Eve Party before, I wonder what we do?

So mom and dad dropped me off about 6. We sang, played, ate, played, danced, played, ate, and so more! Ms. Becky had a balloon drop at midnight, we got champagne glasses with grape juice in them to toast, we let off lanterns, and ate A LOT! As we were letting off lanterns after midnight I told Ms. Becky, "this is the best party EVER". Ms. Becky melted! She said that made the night!

So I went to bed REALLY late and Nina and Popie were supposed to pick me up for church at 9 am the next morning...EXCEPT that about 6:45 I woke up puking!!!!! SERIOUSLY!!!???!?!!?! Is this what a hangover is? A junk food hangover!

So Ms. Becky had to call my dad and he came and got me, mom gave me a bath, and then they put me back to bed, where I slept until 11:15. So I missed church completely! Oops!

December 2011

2012-01-05T04:29:00.000-08:00

Happy December Everyone! Did you know that Santa comes this month? Well, we also got a new friend, Phony the Elf! He was a popular friend at our house this month. He was a secret spy for Santa and reported to Santa every night how me and G had been for the day.

Here's a pic of Popaw and G man, everyone calls Popaw "the Gage whisperer" he and Gage can sit and play for hours! G loves to feel his beard and play with him.

Here are some pics from Christmas morning!!! It was super cool! Santa left me tons of stuff...

A new bike, life size paper dolls, a picture of me and my brother, dress-ups, and some musical instruments (that was to me and G). And you know the funniest thing, Santa left me some MUSTARD in my stocking!!! Can you believe it? He knows how much I LOVE mustard so he left me a bottle in my stocking. He really knows me!
Here is G man eating one of his basketballs. He loved everything Santa gave him, a basketball goal, a train track, and a workbench! Santa was really good to us! We must have been really good!
Mom snapped a picture just before she came to wake me up. Cause you know she had to wake me up, the one morning I decide to sleep in and everyone is waiting to see me!
This is painful for me to talk about, so I'm going to hand it over to mom for a bit...

This is Phony and El. He came to live with us around Thanksgiving and every night he would fly back to Santa and give a report on El and Gage. Every morning he would be in a different spot and we had to find him but we couldn't touch him cause he would lose his magic!

However, on Christmas Eve he was going to fly back to Santa and stay there until next year and that made El VERY sad. She was so pitiful and sad. She said, "but Phony's my friend". I cried, she cried, it was not fun! But hopefully Phony will send us pictures from his vacation.

Over Christmas break my friend Mallory came over to visit and spend the night. It was a super cool slumber party! We stayed up to 9:45 and had a fun time. We colored, dressed up, played with my dollhouse! It was fun! It was the first time I've had a friend over (other then Kara).
Here is G man in the tub!!! Look at his baby blues! Mom loved this picture!
G man learned a new trick, he can stand up in his bed now...Mom and Dad are not thrilled! They had to lower his mattress.
And he's so skinny, he lost his pants...Mom thought I pulled his pants down but I didn't. She blames stuff on me all the time but I didn't do it "this" time!
Phony hanging out in the village.
Me and G in our matching pj's that Aunt Shine sent us from Texas! Aren't we adorable?
Phony "hanging" out on the light, literally!!!
G man as a snowman, this used to be my outfit you know?
This was my homework from Ms. Tanya. We had to decorate this tree as a family! It was super fun. We put lots of stuff on there to represent every one in our family!
Phony hanging out again.

November 2011

2011-12-07T17:44:00.000-08:00

Have you met this guy? Do you know who he is? He came to live at our house at the end of November, his name is Phony! I named him. He stays at our house all day and then at night he flies to the North Pole to give Santa a report on mine and Gage's behavior for the day. And when we wake up the next day we have to find him, he moves a lot!

G man at 8 months old
Me and Kara--she spent the night with me and we got dressed up to go play outside! :)
G man eating mashed potatoes on Thanksgiving...this took a lot for mom, she was struggling!
My mom and dad on thanksgiving at Momaw and Popaw's. Aren't they sweet?

Me putting my first ornament on the tree! I think if I remember correctly the first ornament I put on was the "marrying cake" I made for mom and dad at Momaw's. I'm gong to be the next Dough by Di!

Me and Mom decorating away!
This is what G man did while we decorated the tree...
Me and Dad posted up watching some Rudolph after the decorating was over.
Our house all lit up!

G man hanging up his "Baby's 1st Christmas" spoon ornament--he tried to eat it! That must mean he really likes it.

Me and Dad putting the star on the tree! I'm so tall!
Me and Mom "fluffing" the tree! I was a good fluffer but man we had a lot of fluffing to do.
G loves this thing so much that it doesn't make him mad that just pulled it over on himself, cause now he can reach the frog he loves so much! And mom is such an awesome mom that instead of helping him up she takes a picture! That's just like my mom!

Me and Kara right before the Rodeo!!! This was my birthday present, a trip to the rodeo!

G eating--his favorite thing to do!

Got out some of my old toys the other day and G man LOVES the learning table! His favorite parts are the turning frog thing and the up and down frog. He loves it!
I cleaned my room and made my bed, what do you think? I even folded the blankets at the end of my bed. I am trying to be good!
On my way to my FIRST ever big girl birthday party. A big girl birthday party means mom or dad doesn't go with me, they just drop me off and pick me up later. It's a Maddie's house, so it's right next door but I think Mom is a bit nervous. I had a lot of fun! I am holding Maddie's present, I wrapped it myself! ! !
Me and G watching cartoons!

September 2011

2011-10-12T14:18:00.000-07:00

September was BUSY!!!!

Most importantly, it was my birthday and I am now 4!!! Can you believe it?

My dad decided that before I was 4 I would learn to ride me bike without training wheels and guess what? He was right! We spent some serious hours outside and now I don't need any training wheels.

Look at me go!!!
At first he kinda "pushed" me off and then I would go on my own but now I just go without him. For some reason I think riding my bike without training wheels made mom a bit sad. I don't know why? But she said she was really proud of me.
G man wearing his shoes that finally fit, he is so cute!
Me and G man! Me 4 years, G man 6 months! Thanks JNP Photography for such great pics of us.

4 year old me

6 month old Gage

Mom, Nina, and Gage traveled to St Louis to attend a memorial service this month as well :(

However, while there Gage sat in a high chair for the first time and did really good. Mom put a blanket behind him and he loved it.
Me in front of my hook at school. I'm such a big girl! I love going to school.
Gage started eating avocado this month too! He LOVES it!

I learned to eat with chopsticks, well let's maybe say I was able to get food in my mouth with chopsticks, not entirely sure I did it correctly but whatever.
Painted my own toes and did a decent job, mom knew I was doing it and she was fine with it.
After my birthday party the slide guy left the slide at our house for a few days and so the Pomeroy kids came over to play. We played a lot and all the "babies" played in their exersaucers. They seemed to have fun but we had the MOST fun!

4 years old...a note from The Mom

2011-09-17T04:56:00.000-07:00

Dear Ellie,

4 years ago you came bouncing in our lives and made us happier then we knew we could be. We didn't know love that like but found it the second we held you. It has been a whirlwind of 4 years. We have never laughed as much as we laugh when you are around. I think about all the fun we've had since you arrived and all the things we've tried or did and I can't help but thank God that you made it. :) We had NO idea what to do with a child but somehow we managed.

Your first year was a load of firsts, lots of new experiences, you walked--never really crawled, you ate new foods, you slept like a champ, you laughed, we laughed, you smiled, we smiled. It is amazing how much joy you brought to us.

Your second year was even better. The terrible two's were not present at our house. You were a very happy toddler, learning lots of new things and loving to climb, play, and give kisses. We loved every moment of two's.

Your third year, I'll admit it was a bit trying at times. However, I think you were learning to become to your own person and your own independent self and that's hard for mom and dad to understand. But, we still have great times to remember...well one is that you became a big sister this year and I must say you are AWESOME at that! Even though you didn't get a sister like you asked for, you love your brother SO much. I love to see the nurturing side of you and the rough side that comes too :) We went on your first flight this year, you started school, you love to paint, and play dress-up. Another blessed year.

And now you are 4! Everyone says the time passes so quickly and their right, it does. But I think back to all the moments we've had and all the things we've done and I can't help but feel overblessed thinking of all the FUN we've had together. You light up our world and we are so lucky to have an independent, loving, caring, and fun little lady. I can't wait to see what this year brings...Bring it on sister, bring it!

Love,

Mom

August 25, 2011

2011-08-26T18:42:00.000-07:00

Well today was D day! Time for G man to weigh in!

and the verdict was...

12 lbs 14 oz!

Not bad but still not "enough" according to his doctors. In a month he gained 12 oz, almost a pound!

So we started him on some rice cereal and while he didn't hate it, he didn't love it either.

August 15, 2011

2011-08-16T04:30:00.000-07:00

I spent the night at Momaw's last night, came home and had a fun day. Mom said she should have went to work today but for some reason she didn't! I don't understand why? Anyway, we met our friends, Alexis and Evan at McDonald's for lunch and some playtime.

Once we got home, I played and played. I even got to paint tonight, except I 'accidentally' painted my brother--mom and dad NOT HAPPY! I just painted his arm. I don't know what the problem is.

Tonight Maddie came home and we played hide and seek for a long time. I helped mom trim the tree and me and mom took a bike ride on my alley cat! What a fun day! Glad mom didn't work!!!

MOM NOTE: After a grouchy weekend from G Man, he and I went to the dr before El got home this morning. Apparently, the G in G man stands for grouchy!!! Nothing is wrong, which makes me happy but also the crabby baby I had this weekend was really tough to deal with. I hope all gets better real soon! His dr is concerned about his weight...

July 25--12 lbs 2 oz

Aug 15--12 lbs 7 oz

Aug 25--they want him to be 13 lbs...he needs to gain 9 oz in 10 days! I'm sorta doubting this will happen! He only gained 5 oz in 21 days, I don't know how he will gain 9 oz in 10 days! Cross your fingers!!!

Digging for bugs, August 7, 2011

2011-08-07T19:35:00.000-07:00

So tonight me and mom went outside to fly my new airplane dad got me. Did I tell you what happened with my other airplane? I was running (in flip flops and I know mom tells me not to but I did it anyway) and tripped (shocking I know) and broke the wing on my big glider that dad had got me. SO anyhow he found me this new cool airplane that flies with a rubberband and me and mom were playing with it in the front yard, well really mom was making it go and I was chasing it but you get the picture. And then I had a blowout with the current flip flops, not the same ones I fell in but another pair, and so I went around back to put my flip flops away and found my shovel and decided tonight would be a good night to dig for rollie pollies and worms! Don't ya think? So in my Sunday dress I began the worm and rollie pollie dig...

2011-08-02T13:44:00.001-07:00

Went to Tennessee this weekend. Which was fun. Brother didn't love all the riding but here's what we did ...Stayed at Brian and Stacys! Did u know there was another Brian? I carried around their two dogs, Bentley and Lexus. I got to sleep in the same room as their hamster,Sally. It was tons of fun. Then we left there Sunday morning and drove to Cumberland Falls to see the waterfall! Which was pretty neat. The mist interesting part was when I had to pea and Gage had to poop and we were a mile away from the bathroom. So I got to pea in the woods. Never did that before...After we left there we found a place to ride horses and I got to ride on two horses. Pretty special. Then we headed home. We got home so late that Dad carried me in and I slept in my clothes! Tuesday we got up and headed about an hour away to the KY Railway Musuem and get this we got to ride a train!!!! We took a long train ride. It was awesome!On the way home from that we stopped and me and dad rode go carts, which was pretty cool but I wanted to do more but Gman wad asleep in the car so we couldn't do too much. What a busy couple of days! I've had lots of fun!!!!

July 25, 2011

2011-07-27T05:54:00.000-07:00

We took Gage to the dr today for his 4 month check up

I weigh 44 lbs!!! That's what I found out!

Gage is a lot smaller then me...

He weighs 12 lbs 2 oz (5th percentile)

He is 26 inches long (95th percentile)

His dr is a tad concerned with his weight, she said he should be around 14 lbs by now but he isn't!

I have been busy lately, swimming, hanging out with Nina, VBS, playing with Maddie, and so much more.

July 24, 2011

2011-07-24T15:54:00.000-07:00

Getting ready to go for a swim! My brother got some new swim trunks!

Me, Brother, and Dad! we had a lot of fun!

SWIMMING for the 1st time!!!!

July 19, 2011

2011-07-20T07:56:00.000-07:00

Been going to "Bacation Bible School" this week with Nina! It is super fun! Ms. Debbie is my teacher and she is so nice! We are making crafts, learning a lesson, having a snack, and playing games. I love Bacation Bible School.

The other day Gage was laying on our new carpet and he spit up. Mom and Dad were cleaning it up and I told them, "Just get some oxi stuff, like the stuff I see on tv and it will clean it up!" Mom and Dad cracked up laughing. They said apparently tv commericals really work cause I remember what we should do to get the puke off the carpet.

Wednesday I'm going to see Ms. Gracie to get a bang trim, I can't wait!

video of the roller

2011-07-16T17:02:00.000-07:00

He can roll now! And he's really good at it! Mom says I have to start watching my toys now, I don't know what she means. Do you? I mean he can't go far until he starts crying cause he can't roll back over. He gets stuck on his belly all the time.

Rolling, Rolling, Rolling!

2011-07-14T05:09:00.000-07:00

Well, mom and dad had a rough night last night! See the deal is G man likes to sleep all swaddled up (I have NO idea why he likes that, that would make me SO HOT) but now that he is rolling mom says he can't sleep all swaddled up cause what if he rolled over and then couldn't get his head up and then he couldn't breathe and that would be bad! So last night he slept in a baby bag.

Dad had to go in there about 4 times because he rolled over and couldn't get back, Mom went in there once and fed him to calm him down, then he usually wakes up and eats around 7 am and then goes back to sleep for an hour or two, well this morning he is in there just rolling all around and pretty angry that he can't figure out how to roll the other way.

This should be fun!

July 12, 2011

2011-07-13T04:44:00.000-07:00

Our dad is on "Bacation" this week!

Sunday he mowed grass all day

Monday I went to Ava Jane's house while mom and dad went and got a new couch at IKEA

Tuesday we just hung out and mom went to lunch with friends, tutoring, and bootcamp, I talked to Momaw and she is letting me spend the night tonight!!! So happy!

July 11, 2011

2011-07-13T04:41:00.000-07:00

Gage rolled over today!!! From his back to his belly! He did it twice!

Here he is on his belly after rolling over!

2011-07-08T07:57:00.000-07:00

I've started collecting a new thing...money!!! It's pretty cool! I have a purse and a wallet and I constantly ask for pennies. Mom and Dad are giving them to me as long as I am good. They seem okay with it and I am loving it!

I got three pennies from Dad last night for being good while Mom was working out. I think that's a great deal!!!!

July 1, 2011

2011-07-01T19:06:00.000-07:00

Tonight while we were taking our stroller ride, I told mom that "when I get bigger I wanna be a policeman, a doctor, or a waiter". She was thrilled! She told me I could be anything I wanted to be. We had a fun stroller ride around the neighborhood.

We also got new carpet today in the living room!!! It is beautiful! I love it! However, what I don't so much love is that mom and dad won't let me take my snacks and drinks in the living room. Momaw, Nina, and Granny came over to see our new carpet today, they ALL loved it too!

June 28, 2011

2011-06-29T07:42:00.001-07:00

We got up this morning and headed to the zoo to see a few animals and meet some friends at the splash park. It was a lot of fun As always I have to have my picture made at the zoo entrance. I bet mom has 75 of the same picture. After the zoo we stopped and got lunch and went to granny's "office" for a bit. Gage pooped through two outfits while we were there which ended our visit. And tonight Gage took his first bath in the big tub. He really liked it.

3 months old

2011-06-23T06:30:00.000-07:00

Gage is now 3 months old, seems like he has been around for a lot longer then 3 months, doesn't it?

He had a check up at the doctor office the other day...

weighs 11 pounds 5 ounces (25th percentile)

25 inches long (85th percentile)

15 3/4 head circumference (25th percentile)

So as usual he is long and lean! He laughed a lot at the doctor when she pushed on his hips, he thought that was really funny.

Me and Mom took him to get his pictures made at Olan Mills (it was free) and he smiled a lot. He is starting to be super fun. I'm so glad I got a brother.

Good Morning

2011-06-09T11:33:00.001-07:00

Brother hasn't been feeling good so mom took him to the dr today. The dr said he has lots of fluid on his ears. Not good!

I talked momaw into letting me spend the night last night so mom and Gage took a long peaceful nap on the couch today.

Swimming

2011-06-07T10:50:00.001-07:00

Here's what we are doing today! Mom and Gage are swinging and I'm swimming.

good news

2011-06-07T06:46:00.001-07:00

Mom wants me to report that G man has slept through the night 4 nights in a row! She is super happy about that!

I didn't sleep through the night Sunday night...

I puked in my bed twice and finally me and mom just stayed up for a while and watched a movie. Then I had a dream there was a dog in my bed. Crazy night!

First week of June

2011-06-06T19:07:00.000-07:00

Well, my brother got his first bath in the sink, he kinda liked it, he didn't scream. I watched, they did okay but mom says they will do it in the kitchen sink next time because it was really hard to wash his hair.

I am trying to teach Gage about everything, including pinwheels. I LOVE pinwheels! Hopefully he will too.
We also found out that Gage really likes to watch tv! This is him all posted up watching tv and loving it.
Today, June 6th we went to Granny's "office". She moved and now we can go see her. She has an apartment, that I call an office!

Granny read to me, I read to her, she made me crackers and cheese, had a cookie for me, we played legos, Gage cried a lot, and we had lots of fun! Can't wait to go back!

Granny reading to me.

Tent city

2011-06-03T11:54:00.001-07:00

I love making tents now. This one I made all by myself. You like it? You can't tell but I'm actually in my tent right now reading a book.

Somehow my brother almost escaped from his swaddle last night. He is a good escape artist. But he seems happy so whatever.

And here we are together! This was challenging! Gage just wouldn't cooperate...

Side note from the mom: it wasn't always Gage that didn't cooperate...sometimes it was the bigger one that was tempermental. I know that is hard to believe...

Gage's newborn pics

2011-05-28T05:37:00.001-07:00

Here are Gage's newborn pictures. He was 10 days old...

Aren't they so cute? Guess what? Mom took me to get my pictures made with Amber (the photographer) so I could match Gage. I'll post those next...

Gage 2 months old

2011-05-28T05:18:00.001-07:00

Thursday G Man had a dr appt, mom wanted me to report his stats:

10 pounds 11 oz (25th percentile)

23 1/2 inches long (80th percentile)

15 inches head circumference (50th percentile)

overall, a perfectly healthy baby brother! Mom was concerned about the amount he spits after he eats but Dr. Arauz said as long as he wasn't crying or arching his back when he spit (which he isn't) that he was fine. She said to buy more bibs and burp rags!

It's been fun having a baby brother around for the last two months. I kinda like him! ! !

2011-05-24T10:50:00.000-07:00

Lots has been going on...

Mom and Dad left me and Gage at Momaw and Popaw's Saturday night so they could go out on an anniversary date. They were pretty excited about it and I was pretty excited about going to Momaw and Popaw's.

Saturday morning me and my folks, and Gage of course, went yard sale'ing! Oh what fun! I got some new diamond shoes and a Barbie Jeep. The Barbie Jeep is one that I can drive, and let me tell you, I'm a GREAT driver!!! Dad says I'll be an awesome Nascar driver cause all I do it go around in circles.

Sunday we had a graduation party to go to and I took my swimmies! It was REALLY cold but I still jumped in, got right back out, but I did it! And in fact, I did it a few times.

Monday, mom went back to work which meant me and Gage had to get up REAL early and go to Momaw CiCi's. No fun (the getting up part)! I had a rough day at school and at home. I'm thinking lack of sleep was a factor in my nastiness! Mom and Gage went to bed early and so dad put me to bed.

So that is the weekend. Lots and Lots of stuff to do!

PICNIC at Ava's house. We were supposed to go to the playpark today but it was cold and rainy so we decided to all go to Ava's house and picnic there. I took my Ms. Betty Blanket and mom packed out lunches! It was so much fun!

Gage spent some time with Momaw and they had fun too! It was his first time to stay at Momaw's house.

Today at school I learned about octopus and jellyfish. We played a game and Ms. Jo couldn't catch me because I was so fast because my bones are so big because I eat so much food! I also learned that octopus have "section cups" under their arms and when they touch you they stick to you. Do you know about octopus? I also learned that jellyfish are squishy! Did you know that? I love school! It is so fun!

So happy

May 8, 2011 Mother's Day

2011-05-10T05:05:00.000-07:00

Happy Mother's Day!!!

Momaw and Popaw came over early in the day and we went to Pina Fiesta's to eat then came back to our house to blow some bubbles and "hula loop"
I'm a pretty good hula looper.

Here is the bubble station. Everyone got their own thing of bubbles and they were instructed to blow away!

Little Brother Gage catching a quick snooze before everyone gets here for Mother's Day. What am I talking about? He sleeps no matter who is here or where we are?!?!?!

My mom and us! Mom says she would love to know what was so exciting that me and Gage were looking at?Aunt Sissy and her kiddos!
All of us! It's really hard to get all these crazy people to look and smile at the same time.

May 7, 2011 Derby Day!

2011-05-10T04:55:00.000-07:00

Today was the annual Pomeroy Derby Party! So much fun!

This was Gage's first Derby, mom didn't make him wear a hat, something about boys don't have to wear a Derby hat but girls do?!?!? Anyone know any truth to this?

Anyway, we went to Uncle Marshall and Aunt Jessica's house, which is always SO much fun!

Gage and Emily had fun playing on the bed... mom says they won't be allowed to "play on the bed" much longer. I have no idea what she means by that.

Me, Rayonna, and Opa jumping on the trampoline. He is so much fun!
Here is daddy and Gage hanging out, literally! He was hanging on dad! Don't they look so comfy, all snuggled up?
And here is the famous DERBY HAT!!! Don't ya love it? Me and Mom made it all by ourselves!

I know I have been slacking lately and I am going to try to do better, especially for Popaw.

Here's a cute pic of Gage I thought you might like.

I got some new games from my friend, Ms. Sharon, our neighbors, I love them!!! This one is a bowling game and I'm pretty good at it.
Wednesday at school we made presents for our mommies. I made her flowers, a little tote bag, a card, then we put a candle, a notepad, and a Bible verse in the tote bag. Mom LOVED it! I think she almost cried! She's a sucker for me!

Easter 2011

2011-05-02T04:01:00.000-07:00

Happy Easter Everyone!

Easter was so fun this year...Mom had declared that no one was going to be sick this year for Easter and we were NOT spending Easter in the Acute Care Center or ER and we didn't!!!

This is me hunting eggs at Momaw and Popaw's, we had to hunt eggs inside cause it was raining outside (like always). I found eggs with candy and quarters (for El Nopal) in them. So much fun!
This is Nina and Popie and all of us, looking kinda close to the camera! WOW!!! We all went to church with them this morning and afterwards took this fabulous picture!
Gage on Easter Sunday (thought this pic would flip, sorry)
Me on Easter Sunday. Mom made me take the Abby socks off before we left for church, aahhhhh!
The Easter Bunny visited our house...he left me socks, bubbles, a new dress, Tangled the movie, a new coloring book, and some Dora bandaids. He left Gage some new bottles, bottle liners, and a Little Brother shirt. We both really loved all our goodies from the Easter Bunny! Thanks Easter Bunny!

My new little Brother went to his one month check-up at my doctors the other day.

Here are his "stats":

8 lbs 14 oz

23 Inches long

He was not happy cause he had to get a shot but he did really well with it, just cried for one second and then he was done.

It's hard to believe that in three days he will officially be one month old. Seems like he's been around for a lot longer.

This is a "the whole last week or so" post. Been busy and haven't had time to post but I will try to get more regular. But read and see what we have been doing...

Swim Lesson, floating on my back! Look at me!!! No hands!
Mom and Gage came outside with me, it was much colder then mom or me had thought, so they had to get a jacket and a hat for Gage. Is he in there? Where is he?
And this is the reason we had to go outside, to fly my new kite I made at school! It works and it was super windy that day so it worked even better! Using up a lot of energy!
These are Gage's TV watching slippers! Aren't they so cute? All old men have to have slippers and he is no exception.
Gage's first night in his crib! Mom and Dad were so super excited! He sleeps there all the time now.
Gage and Me getting ready for church. He sleeps a lot!
Little Brother giving Dad an old man face! So funny!
Well, we all know Gage LOVES to sleep in his swing and he LOVES swaddle blankets, here is his "best of both worlds" except you can't see him, he likes to play hide and seek in his blanket but he never seeks, just hides.
Dad wanted a picture of his kiddos and his bus! Both his loves! Hey what about mom? Aren't we adorable?
Me and Gage just chilling. He is so "stinking cute".

Well April has been filled with lots of fun so far!

Me and Mom went to McD's to play

Mom took Gage to heart dr and he got a good report

I spent the night with Momaw and Popaw

Gage puked all over me

Gage now weighs 8 pounds

Me and Dad have been riding our bikes a lot

I dug for worms at Maddie's house

Maddie gave me a princess riding set, helmet, knee and elbow pads

See we have had lots of fun! I don't get as much computer time as I used to. So if my posts are not as often I'm sure you understand.

Tonight at swim lessons I did awesome!!! My teacher said over and over again how good I was doing. I jumped in and I swam all by myself (without a floatie). It was fun!

Today was a little rough for me. I got in trouble a few times for doing things I know I shouldn't do but I did them anyways. Mom and Dad were not very happy but we got over it. Me and Dad played outside a lot today. And we played a fun game with the bus, the up and down game.

Baby Gage is still pretty cool. I really like to hold him, for just a few seconds!

March 29, 2011

2011-03-30T18:46:00.000-07:00

I started swim class this week. At first not a fan, AT ALL!!! My teacher had to pry me off the wall but eventually I did pretty good and enjoyed myself.

Not a happy face...
You like my new bathing suit????

Gage week 1

2011-03-30T18:35:00.000-07:00

Mom and Dad have found that this is Gage's favorite way to be...all wrapped up like a burrito! That would not sit well with me but he seems to really love it.

Here is Gage the monkey! You like? He is pretty cute, I think!
Mom and all her babies, I think she likes us!
Gage had to have a tanning bed to help with his jaundice. It worked but he had to sleep in it several days. Mom and Dad didn't like it.
Me doing my big sister job and helping with a diaper change. He doesn't like to get his butt changed at all!

Our new Baby Gage was born Wednesday! We were so surprised, I had asked for a baby sister but we got a baby brother! But I'm okay with it! He is pretty cool!

Gage and Mommy right after he was born

Me and Gage...the first time I got to meet him. He is pretty cute!

We really like him. He is home now and I get to hold him a lot and he is very fun!

Well at mom's dr appt today it was decided that tomorrow our baby would come. Hmmm....

So after the appt me and mom went to the park, got Taco Bell for lunch, marker timed, played puzzles and just hung out. It was a good day! Me and Dad went for a a bike ride on my one wheeled bike with a dinger! Super fun!

Wish us luck tomorrow!

After church today, and the party at church, we met our friends Isla and Emily at the park for some much needed running and playing and walking for mom.

We had lots of fun! Isla ate some mulch! I climbed and twirled and had tons of fun! I did lose my sippy cup and was super sad about that but me and mom went to Target and go some new cups. I have lost a few here and there anyway so it was time for some new ones.

2011-03-20T15:08:00.000-07:00

So today mom's baby is supposed to come...so we decided to go to the zoo to help "walk it out" as she says! I don't think it worked cause when we left the zoo the baby was still inside her belly.

But anyway, me and Ava had fun!

Look at those big rhino's. They have big poop!

Here is me and an Emu! He was really big and I was a little concerned he might come through that fence at me but he stayed calm and I tried to stay calm.
And well, here is the funniest part of the zoo trip...Ava's cup swimming with the swans! She dropped it in the water. And do you know ducks poop in that water? They poop out from their tails and it goes in the water. She didn't want her cup back!
And last but not least, we got to ride the Merry-Go-Round! I love Merry-Go-Rounds!

I think Ava and her mom did too! It was a very fun day at the zoo and afterward we went to Steak-N-Shake and had lunch! So much fun!

Today is St. Patrick's Day!!! I got a very cool shirt from Aunt Sunshine from Texas! You like it!!!

So today at school was a Pizza Party and a Helicopter landing!

Let me tell you...the helicopter was WAY to loud for me. So me and mom stayed way back and let all the other "children" have a front row seat to watch it take off.

This is how far away we were from the others. You see the helicopter a little bit in the sky?
This is Safety Dog and I really did want to see him...until he got close and then I didn't anymore, which is why I am almost choking my mom!
Here is my favorite teacher ever, Ms. Jo!!! I love her!

So the other night mom and dad were putting me to bed and as dad was leaving the room to go get my hairbrush he discovered an interesting piece of artwork I had created earlier that day...on the back of my door!

I told them it was dolphins and that they just NEEDED to be drawn! I'm not certain they believed me however they both left the room and came back a few minutes later telling me this was not appropriate and if it happens again my markers and crayons will be put up REAL high! Which I of course do not want, I am too much of an artist to have my markers and crayons out of my reach. Mom did make the comment that for a 3 year old this was a pretty good piece of artwork! You think?

Here is me, as a firewoman, and my cheesy grin! Gotta love this face (even when I draw on my door)!

Today mom got to drop me off at school! I think she really likes taking me to school since she normally doesn't get to.

But anyway, at school, we had a special guest today...Fox41 Safety Fox! How cool is that? He talked about calling 911 if mom or dad is really sick and fire safety. He was orange and white.

After school me and mom stopped by Nanny and MaryLue's for a few minutes. Which I got to eat whatever I wanted and get out ALL the Barbies! So fun!

I painted Momaw and Popaw a picture tonight and got paint all over my shirt! Mom says it will come out, she didn't seem too worried.

Wonder when our baby is going to come? What do you think?

Here are some pics that haven't really had a place to post but mom thought I should share...

Me and Teddy lounging on the hard floor downstairs watching my favorite movie, The Lion King!

Me and Emma getting ready to go to a Mardi Gras party on Tuesday morning! Emma didn't want any necklaces but I did!
Emma made a mask at the Mardi Gras party! I called it a "Mardi Girl" party all day!
Me chillin on mom's baby watching some tv! We like to just hang out. Maybe our baby will too! And last but not least...the giant pile of clothes that are all for me for this spring and summer. We had a fashion show and I got lots of cool new clothes to wear! Do you think I have enough? Surprisingly, mom did have to buy PJ's for me to wear. I only had like 3 pairs so we went and got some new jammies! I picked out lots of gowns for this season.

This morning me and mom got ready early and headed out to a Fire Station! It was pretty cool but I was a tad disappointed. I was expecting to see lots of real firemen in their outfits and we didn't get that. The one guy that was showing us all the stuff got some of his gear on but I wanted all of them to have their outfits on. Maybe next time!?! But it was still a neat time.

Me and Mom--this is where I wanted to stay the whole time but Mom can only hold me so long.

After the tour, mom had some stuff to do so I hung out with Nina for a bit. We went scrapbooking for a few minutes.

Then, Nina dropped me off at some place with Dad! Super fun time! It was like a car show party! I was really good and Dad let me eat lots of cupcakes! Super fun!

And finally, I played outside for a while when I got home and got to jump on Donny and Sharon's trampoline. I wanted mom to jump with me but she didn't think that was a good idea. I don't know why not???

Today was an awesome day!

So Mom is supposed to be at home on the couch for the most part...and apparently she did while I was at school. But once she picked me up she took me to the doctor to see Ms. Patty. I'm having some issues that I'd rather not say on here.

Come to find out, I have strep throat (AGAIN!) and I have a staph infection from where I have scratched so much. Mom is crazy right now!

I got some medicine yesterday and hopefully that works REALLY quick OR mom holds her baby inside for a few more days...(which mom is not a fan of).

Please say a little prayer that I get better real soon!

This morning we were trying to decide what to do. Mom suggested going to a "Baby Fair"! Sounded fun to me! I told her, "I'm your friend, I'll go with you!" Which apparently melted my mom's heart and we were off on our way to the Baby Fair. On the way there I asked a few questions about this "baby fair".

"Is it like a Baby Carnival?"

"Will they have cotton candy there?"

While this baby fair was not anything like I expected, I got tons of candy and a pack of bubbles and some other stuff and mom got to check out some baby stuff. She said maybe we will win a prize! I hope so. We got to bring home a giant bag of goodies! Loved it!

And then we had a birthday party to attend at Chuck E Cheese's. It was my friend Sabrina's! We had tons of fun!!!

Today is March 1st!!! Means a lot around here...

Happy Birthday to my Granny!!!

and

The month our baby will be here!

This morning we did our usual Tuesday baby Dr. visit and then me, mom, and Emma went to McD's to eat and play! It was a lot of fun and there were several other little girls there to play with. No big kids to be mean to us. So much fun!

After Emma left me and mom headed outside to see a new flower we have blooming...I am so happy!

We also went on a wagon ride.
These are some new flowers coming up!!! How exciting!
Counting the daylily blooms.
This is the flower that initially peaked our interest and lured us outside.

Mom found a clump of hair in the sink tonight...wonder where that came from?

She asked me and I told her that I cut my hair today! She asks with what and I showed her where I got the scissors from and she took them. She told me to never do that again. Dad even said that if I needed my haircut I should go see Ms. Gracie, not do it myself.

Today was a fabulous day, weatherwise! So we headed to the zoo with our friends Jessica and Ava!

I was so pumped about being at the zoo. Everything was new and different!

We saw the hippos, rhinos, elephants, moneys, mole rats, the big monkey's, and so much more.

And everything was such a cool new thing.

The big monkey came out to play!
Jessica and Ava, our friends!

Did a new thing this morning...Went to the Louisville Science Center!

Our friends Jessica and Ava have a membership and they invited us along. So COOL!!!!

Here's just some of the stuff we did...

I was a doctor and checked out all kinds of x-rays.

Emma was a doctor too!
And we couldn't leave Ava out, she was a doctor too! We got to drive the ambulance and turn the siren on.
Played grocery with a ton of food and grocery carts.
Dressed up as a firewoman, a police woman, and an astronaut.
They had an airplane we drove, a slide to go down, a building area, and apparently they had a water area that mom and Jessica decided didn't look fun! It was super fun and cool.

Thanks Jessica and Ava for inviting us, we really enjoyed ourselves!

2011-02-18T06:28:00.000-08:00

Today is heart day! Started off with a Valentine's Party at school. We got to watch a movie during rest time and exchanged heart cards and had so much fun!

When I got home mom's friend Cupid had left me a present and so had Momaw. The day before Nina had given me the cheerleader outfit I'm wearing in this pic. But at home I got a Dora book about love, 2 Dora movies, and some candy from Momaw and a giant heart cookie!

Me and Mom thought of a great idea and made a surprise dinner for Dad! We made a heart shaped BBQ chicken pizza! It was lots of fun! Mom let me help alot!

Cheese in place, just a little taste testing that had to be done.
Our finished product! Dad really liked it!

Here's a few pics of me that mom wanted me to share.

Me being teacher and reading to my class, Emma. I don't think Emma was paying attention to my book. But I still read to her.

Emma dog is letting me dress her up more and more. Doesn't she look like a princess? She loves my necklace and bracelets!!! Doesn't she look thrilled!

And last but not least, me and dad working in the bus. Well, I actually was driving the bus to the "big creek" (aka the deck). When I got out of the bus I was very dirty but mom and dad didn't care, they were happy I had fun! The bus is almost up and running!! Almost! I can't wait!

Today was hair day at Ms. Gracie's! So I got all dressed up in my spring dress (even though it was freezing outside) and we headed to see our friend.

I colored her LOTS of Handy Manny pictures! She likes him!

Here we are, she kept putting hair in my eyes!
Eventually, we both decided it was better to sit in the low chair to cut my LONG hair. So we did and that seemed to work out pretty good.
She straightened my hair and dad loves that! He would like my hair flat ironed everyday but I say no! Too much trouble and too much girlie stuff!

Went to church like usual this morning and when I got home Mom said we were going skating, ROLLERSKATING! Sounds so fun!

I put the skates on and almost hit the floor, thankfully dad had my hand! Dad helped me out a whole lot. It was super fun! I loved it and fell like 1,000 times.

Standing on my own! A huge accomplishment!
Fall number 256
Me and Dad skating! I love him!

Happy Birthday Nina!

This morning started out rough. I woke up early, for me, and mom got me up but she had to leave and I didn't want to stay with dad. Eventually, it resulted in me returning to bed and sleeping for another hour or so.

When mom got home we went to Dad's friends house, Nikki, and she took a bunch of pictures of us. They wanted me to touch mom's belly a lot and smile. Wasn't a huge fan but I tried, a little!

Then we went out to dinner with Nina and Popie for her birthday. Lots of fun until I didn't want to eat anymore and then things got a bit ugly. However, I said a funny, "Mom, you have to eat all your food!" That's what she always tells me so I thought it was appropriate to tell her the same!

Just a few more days until Valentine's Day! I love the candy hearts with words on them. I ask what each heart says and then lick the words off and then crunch (loudly) the heart! So good! The hearts are mine and mom's FAVORITE candy EVER!!!

I have decided on name options for my new baby sister, yes you heard right sister! I'm certain this baby in mom's belly is a girl. So we should name her:

Curly Shirley

Strawberry Shortcake

What do you think?

Tonight we went to a baby class about being a big sister. It was really fun! I got a snack, they had a movie, they showed us how to hold a baby, where mom and baby would be staying, and we got to see real babies in the nursery! It was pretty cool! Another thing that was really cool was dad pointing out the room the I was in when I was born! Pretty cool!

Shocking thing happened today...

I wanted some hair clips in!!!! CRAZY TOWN!!!

So mom did it, she put lots of hair clips in my hair, which is just what I wanted.

Here is me and my dog, Emma, she rarely poses for a picture but today she was kinda calm and we took advantage of that.

Our friends Lily and Aunt Cin came over to play for a bit and we played in the snow for a short time. Aunt Cin wanted some pics of Lily in the snow and so mom took some, but we won't post those here cause she hasn't even seen them yet. But this is me doing my famous Snow Angel that I love to do SO much! Notice that my belly is exposed! Oh dear!
Here is a better view of my hair all clipped up! You like?

I was the teacher and she was my class! I drew on my white board easel and taught her a lot! She was not a good student because she wouldn't sit on the floor like I told her, she insisted on standing, something about she couldn't get out of the floor...

Tonight, I dressed up as Mary from the "tivity" (Nativity). I took one of my blankets and put it on my head like Mary and walked around! Mom said I looked innocent. What does that mean???

So I woke up three times last night! Just for a few minutes each time but still, not very fun!

Eventually, I got a low grade fever and mom decided enough was enough and that something was eating at me and took me to the doctor.

EAR INFECTION!!! Shocking! I've been telling her for two days my ear hurt! I could have told her that!

Had a rough night last night...

I woke up at 4:30 and my arm was telling me it was time to get up and play! Did you know my body parts talk to me??? They do! It's pretty cool! Anyway, mom said we can't get up but that she would lay with me until it was time to get up. Well, that turned into lots of talking (on my part) and playing with her hair and so much more then sleeping, it was like a slumber party with mom!

So finally at 5:45 when dad left she asked him to turn on cartoons for me and I watched cartoons until it was time to go to Momma CiCi's. We left and all was well and then the "ugly" came out at her house. I didn't want to get up and get ready for school, or eat breakfast, or brush my teeth, or anything but sleep really.

Today school even called Mom to see if she wanted to come and get me. I told them my belly hurt!!! Good call on my part, right?!?! Well, mom said no! She asked if they would let me sleep earlier then usual and I would be fine. And that's what they did!

I slept at Momma CiCi's, school, on the way home, at home and then I went to bed at 8:15 last night! MMMMMM...........a girl needs her sleep right?

Uncle Jason called this morning to see if I wanted to come over and play...what kind of question is that??? Of course I want to come over and play.

He came and got me and we hung out all day. I tried on all of Kara's clothes (and I have no idea how she wears them, they are way too tight for me--her mom says she needs to eat more), tried to roller skate up the stairs, and so much more.

I was originally going to spend the night with Nina and Popie cause mom and dad had some friends in town they wanted to hang out with but since I was already at Uncle Jason and aunt Sissy's I just decided to stay there.

Sunday we all got up and went to church with Nina and Popie and then to lunch at Chili's. By the time I got home I was tired, not just tired, dog tired! They wore me out! I lounged for a bit and then decided it was time to watch a movie, The Incredibles, was what I picked. So I got all snuggled up on the couch and dad joined me and we "watched" the movie! Well, actually I slept through pretty much the whole thing. But I needed it! I was tired!

Great day! Thanks Aunt Sissy and Uncle Jason for letting me come over and play!

Snow Day

2011-01-11T08:15:00.000-08:00

we decided that since Dad had to work we would try to help him out a little bit and clean off a bit of the snow outside...

Here we are heading out!

Cleaning off the rail
Mom sweeping
Did you ever think you would see this??? One of our precious cars outside WITH snow on it!
Catching snow with my tongue
Making snow angels
How cute is that?
Mom giving snow angeling a whirl
Not nearly as cute as mine but she tried!

I puked at school today! Momaw had to go pick me up! I really didn't feel good. I coughed and coughed and coughed. Eventually, (while at Momaw's) I got a fever but it went down with Tylenol and didn't come back so we are good.

While I am still coughing that is it!

I got some new friends Sunday!

Two friends at the same time...no these are not mommies babies, they are Kessika's babies and Uncle Marshall's.

I just don't know how they got two...mom says we will only get one. She seems okay with that but I would like two!

This is Payton

This is Emily and Mommy

I haven't got to meet the ladies yet, mom says I have to wait until they go to their house to meet them but I can't wait!!! They are super tiny!

Magic Shows

2011-01-08T18:28:00.000-08:00

I've started hosting "majjic shows" at our house. They are pretty quick but it's a must see!

I wave my hands around (to make things disappear of course) and then pull the cover off, it's pretty awesome! Come over and check it out!

Happy Birthday Popaw!!!

On our way to dinner tonight I asked where Popaw's present was and they (parents in the front seat) said we didn't have one yet! What kind of people are they? I mean it's a birthday for goodness sakes! They later explained to Popaw that they have ordered his present but it wasn't here yet! Thankfully they figured out something!

Anyway, with or without present we had good pizza! And I of course asked if I could go home with Momaw and Popaw.

New Room

2010-12-28T03:24:00.000-08:00

This picture was taken while my dear little self slept Sunday night...the last night in my baby room.
This was Monday afternoon...
The first time we moved all my stuff into my BIG GIRL ROOM!

Love it?!?!
If you notice the picture on the wall to the left is my own personal art project I made just for my room. Unfortunately for you, I don't do special orders, SORRY! But at least we get to see my artwork everyday! And you can always reference this post to see it, or come over!
This was taken again while I slept, kinda weird mom, Monday night in my new Big Girl Room!
I love it! It is prefect!

You need to come over and see it! You will love it too!

Mom is getting bigger...

2010-12-28T03:20:00.000-08:00

She keeps telling me that when her belly gets REALLY big that THEN her baby will come out.

Are we there yet? It seems a lot bigger then what I'm used to! When is her baby coming out?

The loot Santa left

My sleepy face!

WOW!!!! What a day! So while I was sleeping Santa visited my house...

He ate my cookies and left me some presents!

He left me: Vet Center, Elmo sofa, Dr kit, tool kit (it's real), big sister book, new jammies, and lots more. It was pretty cool.

Mom had to come wake me up and it took me a few minutes for my eyes to adjust to all the new stuff but when I did, man I had fun!

Then we went to Momaw and Popaw's and Santa had left me some stuff there too! The big tall dollhouse I wanted!!! How cool is that!?!?!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Dad had to work today and it was his birthday! I think that is WAY unfair! But anyway after he got off we went over to Momaw and Popaw's for a little celebration. Minus my meltdown, we had a good time! We got Dad a phone charger station and Momaw and Popaw got him a new Dickes jacket and hoodie.

Then we were off to Nanny's house. To sing and open presents. Thankfully for me and everyone else I had just finished my meltdown as we pulled in Nanny's neighborhood otherwise I think Mom and Dad might have dropped me off and left. They were going crazy!

Had tons of fun there and opened lots of cool presents. Thanks everybody!

Merry (almost) Christmas and Happy Birthday Daddy!

***Sidenote from the Mom: Blogger is having pic upload issues, as soon as it is fixed there will be photos.

Today we went to Aunt Cin and Lily's house to exchange presents with them and hang out! So much fun! Lily gave me some new books and a new bag, dad is going to be thrilled! I can pack up stuff again!

We gave Lily some bibs that said "Peachy Keen". Get it? Her last name is Keen!!! And we gave her a dog like one I have that she really likes!

We played and I tried to teach her to share but Aunt Cin says she is so tiny she doesn't understand sharing yet, but soon she will!

Then we came home and I took a rest, and so did mom! And finally it was El Nopal time. Rice and beans!!!!

Got up this morning and my cough was still horrible so mom took me to the doctor, not fun but I guess you gotta do what you gotta do! Anyway, he gave me some "spicy" medicine that worked wonders!

Then we went to our friend's house, MaryBeth, Alexis, and Evan. It was lots of fun, lots of new toys and things to do. Had pizza for lunch and played a lot.

Tonight we went to MooMoo's house to celebrate Christmas with Dad's family.

MooMoo has lots of dolls that I love and a bouncey bed (waterbed) that I adore!

Me and Popaw

Lauren, Dad, and Bobby
Mom and Momaw
MooMoo, Brandon, Leslie, and Allison

Lots of fun!

Except I am starting with a nasty cough and mom thinks it very similar to what she had and she is not happy that about that.

I did get to see Santa today at Bass Pro Shops, never fear I didn't get too close to the stranger, but as soon as the pic is available online mom says she will help me post it. But on the way home, I coughed so much I puked! Nasty!

Just had to share

2010-12-21T04:35:00.000-08:00

a funny picture of me...

I got in mom's jewelry box while she was painting my new room (she kinda helped so no worries) and put all her "stuffs" on! Darling or what?!?!?!

Today we went to Aunt Sissy's and Uncle Jason's to celebrate Christmas!

SUPER FUN!!!

We got lots of good presents and two that stand out the most....
One being a marshmallow gun! Sounds fun right? Well, let me tell you.

I opened the marshmallow gun and was very saddened.
"I'm not a BOY!" were my thoughts and I don't need a gun! I had a big sad face until I found out my cousin Kara got one too and she's not a boy...

My sadness turned around when I started playing with it.
Until everyone ganged up on me and got me all at once and then it wasn't so fun. I cried!

These are our new Princess dresses that Nina and Popie got for us!
Don't we look stunning?
Kyle loves some cars!
Popie got his new coffee mug with all our hands painted on it, next year he'll need a new one with a new little tiny hand on it :)
New Dora Sunglasses, hot!?!?!

Dad's Train Track

2010-12-21T04:22:00.000-08:00

He's been holding out on me...I had no idea he had this!

I'm really good at turning it off and on and making it go fast (which is mom's favorite) but I'm not so good at staying off the track so the train can go without hitting me. I just want to be up in the middle of the action.

Building a GingerBread House

It was a big challenge considering that I had carried the box around all day and broken a few of the pieces and mom had to mend them back together. But she did and it looked very nice...until I started eating pieces of it! :)
