f & h status update

i thought i was way overdue for a stat/favorites update on f & h.  since we got fran's 18 month appt complete when she was really 20 months just a week ago i figure now is a good time to post it!

 

fran/franniepants/#hardheadedchild

• at 20 months she was weighing in 26 lbs 5 ozs and 33" tall; both the 75th percentile
• as for her head measurement- OFF the charts! the dr measured 5 times and she also had 2 nurses measure twice each.....i tried to explain that we as a family just have large heads! i have had to take several of her dresses and shirts to the alterations just so they can cut the back so i can fit it over her head! if she gets big hair like her momma then she is gonna have a whopper!
• favorite song: justin bieber "baby"; as soon as it starts she goes in to complete dance mode; i love it; a girl after my own heart
• still needs to sleep with 2 paci's- one in hand and one in mouth
• cheese quesadilla would be her number one request for a meal (especially from chipotle; she has downed 3 kids ones before)
• favorite breakfast is granola in yogurt....who would have thought???
• lately she has started to sing "twinkle twinkle"- it's too cute and makes my heart melt
• barney would be her tv show of choice....for all of 2 minutes!
• loves to eat peanut butter by the spoonful
• she loves to name everyone in the family- always seems to start with honey and papa
• when i ask her who her boyfriend is she always answers "gray"; cute little dude in her class
• still hasn't had a haircut & i don't think i will be doing one anytime soon
• when you ask her what her name is her first response is "pinkie!"
• she definitely is a lover of juice, candy, cookies, JUNK! i guess that means i am going to have to share....bummer

henry/hen/#myrulefollower

• just started to TK program at mppc full day; he is still in his same classroom but will be learning lots of new things this year
• has been asking TONS of questions about kindergarten; already wanting to know what time the bus will come (hey buddy- school is one street over!); knows all about the principals office; excited about having homework!
• he wants to be a contractor when he grows up (only because mommy decorates the inside of the houses so i will build the outside of the house)
• still learning to ride his bike but will hopefully be taking those training wheels off soon!
• soccer starts up again next week- whoo hoo!
• he tried to have a sleepover with me in my bed but he totally chickened out at last minute and asked to go back to his bed....what?!?!? so weird!
• totally in to kung fu panda lately
• he is a sponge lately! it amazes us at everything he remembers
• chesely mydosh is who he will marry when he gets older
• when he sings the alphabet he always says "g's" for g and "jake" for j
• he would wear a football jersey every day if i would let him
• he is still the number one cleaner upper in the classroom and is always asking to organize something around the house .....hhhmmm....i think i have rubbed off a little

These two sure do keep us on our toes but at the same time they make us laugh so much. They love each other so much more than I ever thought they would. They also know when we are having a bad day and need that perfect dose of love. We sure are thankful for these two blessings and cannot wait to see what God has in store for our family in the future years!
