Madeline had her four month "well baby" check up this past Thursday. She is a healthy, growing girl. She weighed 17.8 pounds, measured 27-27 1/2 inches, and has a big 'ol head-- measuring 17 inches. Madeline spends a lot of time on her tummy and has begun to pull her knees up under her chest-- prelude to a crawl (this girl is moving too fast for me!!!). Madeline can sit unsuported for short periods of time. This picture was taken a couple of minutes before she fell to the side, which she thinks is hilarious.
Madeline waking up from a "post vaccination" nap. She was running a mild fever and had very sore legs, so a nap on Daddy's chest made her feel better.
I spent the fourth of July going through the girls' drawers and closets, pulling out clothes that were too small and searching through our tubs for the next size of clothing. Hannah now wears 3T and Madeline is wearing 9-12 month clothing. Hannah came across her costumes from years past and decided there was no time like the present to try and squeeze into a size 12 month lion costume. We figured we would go ahead and cram Madeline into the infant bee suit for picture purposes.
Here they are in their new 3T and 12 month matching pj's-- bathed and ready for bed.
This is a picture of Hannah jumping to Miss Jeanna. We joined Jeanna and Karis at the YMCA pool last Friday for a fun morning of swimming. I was glad to find out that Hannah is still a fish. Madeline seemed to enjoy the pool as well. We did not join a pool this summer as we wanted to scope things out and find out where we will be living. Thankfully we can accompany our friends as visitors for the affordable price of $5.00.

On Friday night, we watched Karis for Justin and Jeanna. Hannah is always excited when Karis comes over, and she was very pleased to share her Dora the Explorer popsicles with her friend. They had a lot of fun playing and being very silly.

I put towels on their heads after their bath, and they both excitedly said, "It's like mommy!"
As for Jonathan and I-- we are staying quite busy with work, ministry, parenting, and house hunting. We are very much looking forward to a date (with no kiddos ) to celebrate our 6th wedding anniversary on Saturday.

That picture of Karis and Hannah with the towels on their heads is so cute. I am so thankful that Karis and Hannah get to grow up together and for God bringing you guys into our lives. I look forward to watching your girls on Saturday!
Very cute pics! Philip will be excited to hear that Hannah eats Dora popsicles too!
Miss Madeline is changing WAY too fast! She's just 4mos....what happened to the 6mos and 9mos clothing?!! Good to see that Hannah is still a "fish" and enjoys the big pool.
Happy Anniversary...enjoy your date:)
Love, Grammy
Your girls are beautiful! They look so much alike in the picture of them in the costumes, but then I can see differences in the one in the pj's. I love the matching outfits - I bet that's a lot of fun. I'm glad to see that they are both healthy and growing well! I know their grandmas are proud.
What cuties. I sure have missed being able to check on y'all regularly, but we're back in our house, so I'll be back to checking pretty frequently.
I hope you had a great anniversary!
Lydia and Steven love to jump into the pool now! I'm so glad - makes for more fun but more safety issues, too! :)
