Vacay 2013!!!

We had an amazing vacation in Hilton Head! GG & G came to vacation with us for the first week. We had so much fun showing them around all of our favorite places on the island. Unfortunately little Eleni was pretty sick on the way down and the first week with teething, roseola and the stomach flu but we didn't let that stop us from having a great time.

First leg of the trip was to Asheville, NC where we dined at the Mellow Mushroom...Yum! Believe it or not little Eleni was super sick but she still had lots of smiles for the camera!

 

We spent lots of days at the beach (where we had to keep Eleni from eating the sand)

and pool...

 

We went out on the town for lots of yummy food...

 

Went fishing, played miniature golf, watched fireworks,Rode ponies, celebrated Sophia's 6th birthday and listened to our favorite kids musician, Shannon Tanner. Whew! What fun! 

 

 

 

9 months!

Well, I'm REALLY late on this post considering we are celebrating Eleni's 10 month birthday today but we have a good excuse this month since we left for vacation that day. We did, however, manage to snag a few photos before we left. And here are our shorty's stats....

Weight: 17lbs, 9oz-30%
Heights: 26 1/2"- 14%
Head: 17 2/3" - 25%

As you can see, she's starting to really try to get on to all fours. She mainly just belly flops but she's not giving up! She still loves every food imaginable (with the exception of broccoli) and would much rather eat big people food then baby food. She is such a good sleeper and loves her naps in her bed. She's such a great little gal! xoxo

3 Little Ladies

I was recently organizing some pictures and thought it would be fun to post some comparison shots of the girls since everyone seems to have differing opinions on who looks like who. Personally I think they all look totally alike... and totally different ;-)

Kindergarten Graduate!

I can't believe Kindergarten is over. More so, I can't believe we have an almost FIRST GRADER!?!?!?! It was a wonderful first year of "real" school. We love Ms. Dew & Oak Ridge Elementary. I think Sophia was both happy and sad to see the year come to an end. Personally, though, I'm THRILLED to have all my babies home with me for the summer!

First Day!

 

Last Day! (with Ms. Dew) 

The story she wrote last week

"How to make cars"

Translation:

How to make cars

Two wheels on each side

Then make it with clay.

Then put the inside in.

Screwdrivers and a bumper.

Eleni's Baptism

Here are just a few photos from Eleni's big day! She was a bit scared with all the people at first (we're going through some stranger anxiety lately) but all in all she did great! She is one lucky girl with such a great Nouno and Nouna. We love you guys!!!

 

 

 

Month 7 & 8

It appears I have forgotten a few posts! I can't keep track of what and where I am posting photos! (shocking I know!)

Here are the hat pics for 7 months & 8 months! As you can see (bottom pic) she now had two adorable little bottom teeth that she loves to show off. Her hair is getting longer but mostly on the sides so that when she wakes up it sticks out on both sides and she looks like a little Viking. (I'll have to get a picture of that! She started rolling from one side of the room to another which means the baby gates will be coming out this week! She's still a shorty but definitely getting longer as her jammies are starting to strain against her toes!

8 month Weight: (somewhat unofficial) 16lbs 10oz!!
