Tubing at Soldier Hollow

We took the trip up to Midway to go tubing at Soldier Hollow last weekend. We went up with my BFF Mandy and her three boys and had great time!

Nothing like a full-blown tantrum from Paisley before we left. Yes, we are the type of parents that pull out the camera when our kids throw tantrums!

Paisley and I hung out at the bottom of the hill the entire 2 hours. Truth be told, I am a little bit of a wimp and was kinda scared to go down the hills - they looked huge. I always jokingly (well, I'm semi-serious) that I will keep having babies so when we do things like this, I will stay at the kiddie hill with the babies and he can take the big kids to do the exciting stuff.
We people watched and I pulled Paisley up and down the kiddie hill for 2 hours - we both had a great time! Lucky for us, the weather was perfect - I even had my jacket off for a while.

Paisley ended up taking a little nap in her tube. Trust me, I actually contemplated getting myself a tube and laying in it just like Paisley - she looked soo comfy!
The whole gang!
Lincoln walked Emery down the hill - they were so cute together!!

Well Baby Visits

I took the girls for their well baby check ups last month. They both are healthy as can be and growing right on track. Emery had to get 1 shot (the chicken pox vaccine that I had been holding off on) and poor Paisley had to get 4 shots.

As soon as we got to the Dr's office, Emery was miss chatter box, like she always is these days. She was talking up a storm to the nurse and couldn't wait to go first for Dr. Ring to check her heartbeat and examine her. After I decided to have Emery get the chicken pox vaccine, I started explaining to Emery that she had to get 1 little shot. The nurse asked Emery if she wanted to go first - nope, not for the shot - she wanted to go second. Both girls took the shots like champs and only cried for a minute.

Here are their stats:

Emery - 4 yrs old

Height - 40.75 in - 64th percentile

Weight - 33 lbs - 34th percentile

BMI - 14.3 - 17th percentile

Paisley - 15 months old

Height - 31 in - 62nd percentile

Weight - 23 lbs - 50th percentile
