So first I will say that Aaron and I talked about everything that was bothering me the very next day after Sunday, so duh, it was Monday, and in essence, we made up. I was a bit mistaken about things, and as always, completely overreacting. Of course he wants to be a full-time dad and husband, and loves coming over, and all. I just have to remember that he is here on TDY, and that he has an important job to do while he is here, i.e. make a very good impression on all the people he meets, meet the right people, and make such an impression on everyone that he gets orders to move here in August. Also, probably the most important thing I have to remember is that no one else got to go where their family is, and if his cadre or whoever is in charge realized, they probably wouldn't be okay with it. Plus, he's been coming over every day after work and did only miss 2 days....yes, my name is Erin, and I am c-r-a-z-y!
So today was my dear Kelly's birthday, 2nd one to be exact. I want to write her birth story, but will have to save it for another post. I will say that we had a wonderful day. We went to the library, so I could print her coupon for free ice cream from baskin robbins, Layla and my mom went with us, and ever Daddy (aaron) was able to drive up and meet us. Kelly loved it! Then we came back home and she actually ate lunch (tuna fish sandy-with mayo, she LOVES mayo ((I hate mayo!)) and homemade broccoli cheddar soup and milk. She is now on organic 2%, instead of whole. I am weaning her down to skim, she probably wouldn't even notice if I just gave her skim now, but she is so skinny, I don't think the extra fat will be bad per say.
Both girls had their well baby checks on Tuesday. Here are the stats:
Kelly Ruth
Age 24 months
weight 24.9lbs (wearing pants, shirt, and diaper); they weighed her on the standing scale for the first time
Height 33inches
Vocabulary ~25 words
motor skills: eats with spoon, fork, draws with pencils/crayons, etc, jumps with both feet off the ground, walks up/down stairs, runs, stacks block towers up to 12+
Needs: Speech therapy still; she only completely 4 weeks while we were in NC, but needs about 6 months of weekly appointments
Layla Marie
Age 5 weeks
weight 8lbs 6oz
Motor skills: lifts head off floor during belly time and turns from side to side; has very good neck control, and has really since birth
Beginning to smile, social smile, coo, and just be even more cute on a daily basis
The rest of Kelly's birthday included playing with her new cozy coup, the kitchen- until she realized the sink is pretend and that no "wah wah" will come out of it. Birthday dinner was kinda not so great, I didn't make it, so wont go into it (we went to Back East last night with everyone, so that was kinda the "birthday dinner"), followed by funfetti cake with chocolate frosting and ice cream. She loved it. Eddie was over, as was daddy, and ryan and dylan of course we here, and my mom-Granny, and we sang Happy-Birthday and she was actually able to blow the candle out! What a big girl!!
I'll try to get pictures loaded soon.
In other news, I feel so fat and gross which it prob just bc of all the cake & ice cream I've eaten. I ran outside for the first time, on the trails by my house. It was really good, even with all the hills, high altitude (7,000 ft) and windy, I felt really good. I ran monday, 4.10 miles on the mill, followed by 200 sit ups--my abs are still sore! lol
ok, gotta go, layla needs me and I need her to go to bed so I can go cuddle with my hubby! <3
