Just can't get enough....

Party at the kiddie table. Look at poor Deville listening to all the girl talk talk talk.
Lily or Reese? You decide.
Sitting in the big girl chair. Little person!
NICU reunion.
Playing house with Deville. Deville was such a hot number the ladies were jumping out of the back windows and storming the front door!
Some pics from the weekend. No bumps or bruises but one case of pinkeye (Reese), one yeast infection (Lily), and 3 infected ears (one for Lily, two for Reese). No worries, everyone is fine and medicated. They actually had no outward symptoms for the ear infections. We were taking Lily in for her "diaper rash" that wouldn't go away and *bingo* the MD finds an ear infection, in which we immediately decided we better bring Reese in too.


We had the best time this weekend anyway. Running around outside with Deville and Jonah on Saturday (and eating at the little kids table which was amazing! Definately making an IKEA trip this weekend for a kiddie table in order to retire the high-chairs - EEK - they are growing up!). And Sunday we managed to get to the NICU party which was fun. Got to eat mac&cheese, cookies, and ice cream and chase kids around. FUN!!


In other growing up news, Rich and I received the letter we had been dreading. The one that lets us know that the girls are graduating from "Infant B" (the room they started in at daycare last September) to "Toddler A" (for 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 year olds). This soooo bittersweet. We simply adore their teachers and they rule their classroom - I guess it is time to move on to a more challenging environment. And anyway, they start Montessori in September. But it is also the end of an era for them and us. Their first day care experience, where we didn't know how it would work - for them, for us, or how we would pay for it - and now here they are moving along. Luckily there are some other kids also "graduating" to the next room, so there will be some familiar faces. And not to sound too modest about how great our kids are, but Miss Jen and Miss Kristen (their teachers in Infant B) are sooo bummed they are transitioning. In fact, Miss Kristen said she didn't even want to talk about it Friday when she handed Rich the letter. How sweet!! We will miss them much.
