Our Beautiful 'Princess Pea'

 I CAN'T believe my little one is 3 years old!  Holy cow!  SERIOUSLY!!!!  Where does the time go?  We have spectacular people that donate clothes to us, ones their children have grown out of, and this dress is from the latest clothes.  Isn't it adorable?  Daddy was getting her to pose in her new dress. 
 She has been worried about who she's going to marry lately.  HAHA!  Jaeli really wants to marry her cousin Max, but I told her she can't.  She gets very upset and doesn't understand why.  Yesterday we had this conversation, and then she said, "Well, then WHO am I going to marry mom?"  She makes me laugh!!!  Ah the things my 3 year old is concerned with.
In a week, she starts preschool, dance and tumbling.  She is ecstatic....I'm.....well, I am, but sad at the same time.  We love our 'Princess Pea'!!! :)

We Are So Blessed!

Great Grandpa with Airalyn
 On Sunday, August 19, Dan blessed our trio of Princesses.  It was a WONDERFUL day and the blessings were perfect.  Afterwards, a member of the Bishopric got up and said, "Someone, get that man a drink of water!"  HAHA!  It was funny.  We had so many that came and supported us.  THANK YOU AND WE LOVE YOU!

6 Months and Growing Like Weeds

I almost cried when I realized that my baby girls are already 6 months old!!!  Where has the time gone, TRULY?  Here are their stats:

Airalyn:
* Weight: 12 lbs. 2 oz. (1%)
* Length: 22.4 in. (0%)
* Head: 15.6 cm. (1%)            
 - A whole pound heavier than her sissys
- Giggled for the first time on 7.31.12
- Loves her right thumb
-  Rolled over for the first time (stomach to back) on  7.30.12

Brecklin:
* Weight: 11 lbs. 1 oz. (0 %)
* Length: 23.2 in. (1 %)
* Head: 15.6 cm. (1%)
- Is off oxygen all day...just wears it at night
- All meds are the same for now and we added a reflux med for her
- Rolled over for the first time (stomach to back) on 7.30.12
- Loves to TRY and blow rasperries
- Growls
-Giggles
- Can't find her thumb, so if she loses her paci, she sucks her thumb joint

Camli:
* Weight: 11 lbs. 4 oz. (0%)
* Length: 24 in. (4%)
* Head: 37.5 cm. (0%)
- Giggles a lot
- Loves to have you talk to her
- Loves her left thumb
- She is my longest princess
- She has the most amazingly long eyelashes

  The girls are now measured on the "big baby" scale, not the preemie, so they are all int he 0%-1% in everything. They had to have their 6 month immunizations and they all just screamed....Jaeli, being the protective big sister, cried with them. Love my little princesses. We are so blessed to have 3 healthy girls and a GREAT big sister for them!!!!!
Couldn't pass up adding this beautiful picture of my Camli girl :)

The Lazy Days of Summer

The girls are doing great: 

* Jaeli has been to her summer dance class now 2 times.  Every Tuesday night, she get sooooo excited.  She does so well and really is involved in it.  We practice at home and she just ADORES it. 

* Brecklin is on the last step of oxygen (1/32 of a liter) and is soooo smiley!  She loves to be around us and hear our voices.  Brecky Bug is still our angel baby....just so mellow and patient.  It helps to have at least one like that. :)

* Camli has been switched to soy formula, then to a milk based again called Gentlease.  Her little tummy was not happy and then the soy REALLY constipated her, but the change has helped immensly.  She's extremely smiley and happy to be around us as well. 

* Airalyn has been doing well.  On the 7th of June she had a cardio appointment with Dr. Judd.  She still has VSD, but it's little and not causing issues.  The Dr. said they will follow her until it closes.  If it doesn't and follows her into adulthood, it could cause anurisms.  She makes us happy when she smiles and shows her dimples.  Airalyn is also our little talker already.  She'll tell ya how it is.

I've been trying to work in the yard more.  We had some GREAT friends from the Ward come over on Monday and plant flowers in our front bed.  They had extras and they were free for them, so they just donated them to us.  WE CANNOT TELL YOU HOW APPRECIATIVE WE ARE OF EVERYTHING EVERYBODY IS DOING OR HAS DONE FOR US!!!!!!!!!  WE LOVE YOU!!! 
We took ALL 4 GIRLS to Church for the first time on June 10

Daddy and his girls

Here we are....see what a help they all were {not like they could be a help} as I spread the bark? : )  Jaeli did help with her little sand shovels once in a while.

Pretty flowers

YEA!

Our yard is looking soooo much better!

Dan and I planted this bed a couple years ago....it is doing REALLY well.

Shall We Dance?

Jaeli started a dance class today.  It's a combination dance class for 3-5 year olds.  She will learn ballet, tap and a lot more.  She did so well for her first time and LOVED every second of it.  Her favorite: the tap shoes...because they're noisy of course! :)
In preparation for Dance....she has to have her hair pulled back for class.


All changed and ready to go.

In the hall before class.

She was already grinning ear to ear and she had just been placed on her square.  No dancing yet.
