My mood while writing this blog: happy

Hi everyone, (kinda long)

I know its been a long time since i updated my page..

So in July Lily had her 9month appt, she is doing great!!! She is was 17lbs 12ozs(30%), height was 26.75(20%) and her head was 46.3(97%) They did an ultrasound on her head back at 6months to make sure there was no fluid on the brain but great news there wasnt! She learned to say Dada back in June, also sits up on her own,rolls over, army crawls (since june but doesnt wanna crawl normal) very fast, she has 4teeth, she HATES baby food, she can pull herself up, climb over a step to get through the house, climbs on boxes, walks along the furniture and now says HI, also like to eat breadsticks, potatoes,fries,and puffs,crunchies! she has greatly improved and for even being born 6wks early she has shocked some of the drs. I just weighted her on the wii last week and she is now almost 19lbs i dont know if she has growin length wise. She is getting seen by the drs today because she has bite marks from something and getting worse. she is a very happy baby..

Paige, she is now 2.5yrs old, she knows alot lol, she knows her colors,shapes,what a stopsign is and means lol,lots of words more than 100!! no joke, she can now dress herself. loves books, rides her tricycle,she know what a mustang is (car ) and will tell you when she sees one and also tells you about Jack Rousch (my parents taught her) Still not potty trained, she will do it when she wants for a few days and then is done,she eats pretty good well not summer time.. loves to swim on her own, she likes Mickey mouse, little einsteins, spongebob,smurfs,and chipmunks, and her new fav is Rio... paige is the least pickiest daughter i have, she is more independent and would rather do things by herself right now and would rather be outside than anything. She is 36inchs, 32 lbs

Rayleigh, well we only see her once a month for a week. she is 3.5 yrs old, 40lbs, 40inches... she has a big attitude that her mom taught her. I know u may think its her age but if you knew what we deal with daily u would understand. she know some shapes and all her colors, she can count and knows abcs, but when you show her a letter shes doesnt know it yet, and with numbers she can count to 14 but if you try to make her count objects she cant. I have asked her who taught her things and what i get is Leapfrog or dora. She tells me her mom is too busy with her younger sister. I can tell Rayleigh doesnt get enough attention, the way she acts. she has been potty trained for almost a yr now. she loves to ride her bike, and play at the park. We have a chart up here that if she behaves she gets a sticker and if she gets enought she gets a surprise... she listens to her dad more but doesnt like to listen too me(step mom and her mom teaches her this) we have proof! next time her mother screws up we can fight for custody :) she would be better off here and everyone sees it. it took us 3yrs before her mom would let us get her med records we have been intitaled to them since birth almost but she wouldnt let us. doesnt help we live in wisconsin and she lives in Indiana.... but enough about all this..

I love my girls, it can be very stressful but we manage.... My husband and i want one more child (hoping boy) but wont be trying to a couple of yrs. In a few months lily turns 1 and her bday party happens to fall on my bday it wouldnt be a big thing but its my 30th... Im not happy about turning 30 i feel old lol... my hubby will be 25 in november. Im just hoping for a great time for my daughter and do the best i can to help my kids when they need it.
