Happy 5th Birthday Gabrielle Adeline

     My sweet little princess is 5 years old. I can't believe how fast the time has gone. Here is a link to her Birth Story Click Here.   She is a wonderful big sister. She does fight with Avalynn at times but they also play good together at other times. She is really good with Nathan and loves to help with him. She is very excited that Mommy is having another baby and she has picked out some names if it ends up being a girl. 
    
     Gabby will be starting Kindergarten in the fall. She has done really well in Pre-K this year. She has learned so much and made a lot of friends. She is really outgoing and is not afraid to walk up to other kids at a playground or somewhere and introduce herself to them. I know she will do really well when school starts. Gabby is our talker, she loves to talk and she has a great memory too! She can remember things from when she was about 1 1/2 years old. She also has a great imagination. 

     Her favorite toys are her stuffed animals and her lady bug pillow pets. She has just about all of them in all of the sizes. She likes her pig stuffed animals the most. She also likes to play with barbies, fairies and My little pony. 

     Gabby's favorite foods are Steak, Pudgies Pizza, Oranges and Ice Cream. 

Here are some Pictures of Gabrielle through the last 5 Years.

Splash Lagoon

We wanted to do something fun to Celebrate Gabby's 5th Birthday. We decided to go to Splash Lagoon Indoor Water Park. We invited my parents, Kevin's parents and My niece and Nephew to come along. We all had a great time and I know Gabby was happy to have both sets of Grand parents there to celebrate with her. We went out to The Golden Corral for Dinner on Sunday Night and then she opened her gifts in the hotel room. On Monday after we spent some more time in the Water park, We went to a mall and let her spend her Birthday Money. She bought some Jewelry, a mini pillow pet lady bug, another stuffed animal, dress up clothes, a baby doll and a Furr Real Bunny. My parents and Niece and Nephew left after we had gone to the water park, they could only stay one day. On Tuesday Morning Kevin's parents left and we took our kids over to spend a little more time playing in the Water park and we headed home around Noon.

Nathan 15 Month check up

Nathan had his 15 Month Check up today. He weighs 20 pounds 8 ounces (5th percentile) and is 31 1/4 inches (50th percentile).  Hard to believe he was almost 10 pounds at birth and is such a little peanut now. She said everything looks good. He had 3 shots today but hardly cried at all.

Here is a picture of him at his appointment

12 Week prenatal appointment

I gained 2 pounds so far even with all the throwing up I have been doing. The doctor wasn't able to hear the heart beat so he sent me in for a quick Ultrasound to make sure everything was okay. It showed up right away on the ultrasound and was beating 164 which they said is good.
