Lorelei at 15 months

Lorelei is growing so fast. She is standing almost to her big brother's shoulders now at 30.5 inches and weighs 22.5 lbs.  She repeats nearly everything we ask her to say.  Her words of choice are: ball, dada, mama, bubba, doggy, puppy, see it, here, wee, all done. New words: bird, papa, boo. She LOVES mickey & minnie mouse,  books (especially Thomas the train books--oh no please not that obsession!), SHOES, purses, the cozy coupe, climbing,  petting the dog, water, music & dancing (she bounces up and down!).  She's a cuddler, outgoing, always willing to try new things,  stubborn as a mule but sweet as sugar & into EVERYTHING. She is always observing and imitating,  especially her brother (which can be good and bad!). She LOVES sleep.  Takes 1 nap a day 3-3.5 hours long and goes to bed around 8pm and sleeps until 7,8 or 9am. Size 4 shoe,  12/18 month clothes,  size 3 diapers.  Teeth: so many coming in I keep losing count. She shows no signs of teething EVER.  Almost ALWAYS pleasant so we're always shocked to find yet another tooth! She has the top & bottom pair, the top and bottom pair of incisors and the pair of top molars coming in at the top! 8 total,  with 2 on the way. Her eating habits are no longer as adventurous as they used to be,  but she still eats better than her brother.  She loves milk, cheese, cottage cheese,  apples, mango & inhales water. I know I say it a lot but she's a breath of fresh air who lights up our lives and fills our heart with so much joy.  Just love love love this girl!

25 Weeks & Doctor's Appt.

We hit the 25 week mark today!  Hard to believe!  Time is flying so fast... We had our doctor's appointment today (Kevin is out of town Thursday, so we moved it up).  I weighed in at a whopping 109.8!  My nurse and my doctor's response was they are so so proud of me (I felt so special!  Who would have thought GAINING weight would be so exciting?!).  Kevin's response "WHOA!"  And my response to his "WATCH IT Buddy!"  Ha!  So that's almost 14lbs of weight gain!  I really am quite proud of myself... never thought I could do it (although, I spend most of my time eating these days, so it makes sense). The nurse said I "look cute, am starting to show and have that pregnancy waddle."  Considering I did not feel like I was waddling (sometimes I have to because my tailbone hurts so bad) I was not exactly thrilled about this comment, lol!  I asked Kevin if there is something he is forgetting to tell me... ha! The doctor measured my...

One Decision Down... 18+ Years Worth Left to Go!

So, in the scheme of things this probably should have been one of the easiest decisions to make, but Kevin and I just could not agree on a crib bedding set (or theme for that matter) for our little man's nursery.  We finally got it down to two and left those on the computer to stare at for a few days.   Well, Kevin finally compromised (okay--he gave in) and my set won!  So, our son now has a bedding set and a safari themed bedroom! (on order).  Next decision (prone to more disagreements, I'm sure) is finding our little man a name!  If you ask Kevin, his name is Aisen, but I have yet to agree on that (more on the great name debate later!).  For now, here is the set we're ordering our son tonight!  What do you think?!
