Happy Birthday Jillian!

Our baby girl is 1, hard to believe. Jillian's party is planned for Saturday. Just a small gathering her at our house. At Jillian's 1yr check up she was a champ. Here are her stats weight: 17lbs,120z (20%) Height: 28 1/2inches (27%)going to be petite like mommy. Head: 17 7/8 (50-75%) Doctor said she is right on track and doesn't see anything to worry about. She did notice that Jillian has two teeth close to popping out on top, it also looks like her molars are wanting to pop out too. This is explains her drooling and her whole fist in her mouth. Some fun facts about Jillian you may not know. 1. She can say cat, hi, mama, mommy(mimi is what she is saying), daddy. 2. If you ask her to clap, she will clap for you (most times) 3. She will show you how big she is when asked "How big is Jillian?" 4. She has a temper and will let you know. 5. We always know when Logan is crowding her, she screams to let us know. 6. She is a investigator. 7. She can climb up stairs without much help. 8. Enjoys the outside. I took her to get her pictures done, diva in the making already. It was tough getting cute shots, but we did manage to get some. This is great fun! Rocking in my car seat! Birthday cake and balloons Jillian's party was great, lots of excitement and fun. She didn't know what to think of the cake, but once she tasted the frosting she was eating it. Thank you to everyone that came to celebrate. Wonderful day. Still can't believe that she is 1 already.

Jeff and Jaclyn come home

Jeff and Jaclyn came to Nebraska for a visit. We were able to spend the weekend with them to catch up and celebrate Logan's birthday, and Easter. Uncle Jeff got Logan the greatest gift of all a remote control car.
What did I get? Logan just can't wait to see what he got.
Its a remote control car!! I love it!
It was a nice weekend. Kevin and Doug went to Henderson Friday to play video games and golf Saturday morning. The kids and I went to Henderson late Saturday morning, we were there in time for lunch. We stayed the night, played outside, hunted for eggs. It was a great weekend. I will end this post with some pictures from our weekend.
Jeff, Logan, Jillian.
Jillian and Jaclyn
Look I found a egg.
We got Logan a bike for his birthday. We took to Henderson, so he could show everyone how much of a big boy he is.
I have gotten Logan's 4yr pictures taken and got the proofs back. Thanks to my friend Kelly again this year for taking them. I have my favorites, just have not got anything printed yet. Once I get that squared away I will post them. Here are the kids updates from their doctor appointments May 16th Logan 4yr check up Height: 38 1/4inches (9% Weight: 32.6lbs (18% He also got his school shots, 4 of them. He will be ready for preschool this fall. Jillian 9month check up Height: 27 1/4inches (34% Weight: 16lbs 1oz (15% Jillian is crawling, she will also pull herself up to her knees. She can pull herself up to stand with a little help from us. She has two bottom teeth right now, but her top gums are swollen, so it won't be long for more teeth to pop out. She is eating baby food three times a day she still has a bottle with her food. She is not a big fan of stage 3 food, she is not ready to be chewing pieces yet.

First let me start by saying sorry, I'm really behind on my postings. Let me back track, what have I missed. Happy Easter! This year was a bit different than past years. We stayed in Lincoln, had dinner with my mom, her siblings and their families. What a nice time that was, that side of the family has gotten so big that we rarely have time to all get together.
The whole extended family
We went to hunt for eggs on Saturday (7th) at church, Jillian was taking a nap so I missed out on that fun task. Logan loves to hunt for eggs, but this year he had stage fright or something, he had to be talked into grabbing the eggs. It was a bit chilly that afternoon, but Logan still came home with a great stash of candy.
April 11th, Logan turned 4. Wow! still a bit hard to believe he is getting so big. We had Logan's party at Chuck E Cheese. What a great place for kids of all ages to burn off all that energy that they always have. Logan always cleans up with gifts. We all stuffed ourselves with pizza and cake.

Blow out the candles
This was almost impossible to get, as you can see mom's had to help and Sage is not happy at all. There were smiles before the picture time. This was after the kids got to go crazy and play. Next time I better do the picture before the kiddos run wild. I will end this post with pictures of Jillian at Logan's party, she did a great job with so much happening around her. She is showing grandma Janet her tongue.
Teething, I want to chew on anything and everything

Jillian 6 months

Can hardly believe how fast Jillian is growing. She is just as silly as her big brother. At her check-up she weigh in at 13lbs 7ozs (6%), 26inches (50%), head 16 5/8inches (50%). Jillian is a petite little (just like mommy), the doctor is not worried about her weight; she is still tracking at her own pace. Some things Jillian is doing right now.
1. Roller, she really gets around. She does get stuck and she will let you know.
2. Talker, man can she talk up a storm, not sure what she is saying, but we listen anyway.
3. She has found her feet and will have them in her mouth any chance she gets, keeping socks on is next to impossible.
4. Her favorite kitty is Athena; she wants to grab her tail whenever she walks by.
5. She is an earlier bird, and a light sleeper.
6. She looks good in yellow and pink.

We have started baby food and she likes applesauce, pears, and she doesn’t care for plain rice cereal. We are waiting on some teeth, she has been chewing on her hands and toys, but no teeth have popped up yet. Jillian wants to crawl, but hasn’t figured out how to get on those knees and move, it’s only a matter of time.
I will end this post with Jillian's 6 months pictures we went to Penney's, had Logan sit in for a few shots, which he really enjoys. Sorry this has taken me so long to post something.
