NOT QUITE THE WORLD CUP...BUT CLOSE

Jordan has hung up her ballet shoes for the fall in place of some cleats and Daddy is the coach!  She had her first game this weekend..HILARIOUS!  She took more juice breaks than anything and even had a teary meltdown in there, but it was so fun to watch my girl on the field.  My first official day as a soccer mom...just missing that mini van!  Brooke was there to cheer on her big sister!

SEVEN MONTH PHOTOS...ABOUT THREE WEEKS LATE

What We are Up To...

These girls are growing up way too darn fast!  Here is a little snapshot of what they are doing now...

Brooke at 7 months:
Has one adorable little tooth on the bottom
Loves to bite on her spoon when you feed her
Eats three good solid meals a day of fruit, veggie, or cereal...adores the sweet stuff, not so fond of the greens (peas, beans, spinach, or broccoli)
Has a smile that lights up the world
Had her first little ear infection before school started ...so sad
Sleeps ok..sometimes thru the night, sometimes not
Takes two good naps a day
Reaches for EVERYTHING...EVERYTHING in the mouth...be careful
Sits forward facing in her stroller
Sorta eats puffs
Talks up a storm...baba, lala, gaga, mama, dada
Adores her big sister
Gets up on all fours and rocks like crazy...no crawling
Cries when you take a toy away
Can stand holding on to something
Has discovered her cute little thumb
Is a snuggle bunny
Goes to bed and falls asleep on her own...

Twirls and sings and stares at herself in the mirror

First Day of School!!

Jordan had a successful first day of preschool!  She did a great job listening and following directions and came home and told us all about her great day.  Apparently she really didn't eat...I guess the "sloppy sliders" were not appetizing for lunch..go figure.  She also didn't nap..however she was JAZZED when she came home...talking a mile a minute and twirling around.  She finally crashed.  So proud of my baby girl.  So crazy that she has a backpack, a cubby hole, etc!  AHHHH!!  Stop growing up!

Three Years Old

Jordan officially is a three year old.  She is HILARIOUS!  She walks with her hands on her hips, changes her mind every day about what to be for Halloween, is obsessed with looking at herself in the mirror, shows me the same ballet/gymnastic moves over and over, only will wear dresses, is so sweet to her baby sister, loves anything Angelina and princess, continues to love sweets and pasta, and is one of the lights of our world.  I can hardly believe that three years ago I was recovering from a c-section and holding this little miracle in my arms.  God has given me many gifts and I am honored and blessed to be a mommy to my sweethearts. 

My girls

Have you ever....
