Meet the Toddlers

Yesterday marked one year since our expected due date (if the trio had been full term). I thought it would be appropriate to mark this anniversary with a brief overview of each child at this point in their lives.

K is the oldest and the biggest. She is currently about 21 lbs. The two words that sum her up are SWEET and BUSY. K is a very happy little girl whose smile can absolutely melt your heart. She is our Chunky Monkey with soft rolls of baby fat. Her favorite activities are 1- Climbing on anything and everything & 2- Anything animal related. Our current predicted vocation for K is veterinarian. She LOVES our lab, Haley. Her first word was HAY-YEE. She also says dog, dada, ball, bye bye and her current favorite Uh-Oh. She loves to dance, sing, laugh & squeal.

R is the oldest boy (and the second largest at about 19.5 lbs). He has gotten a lot of press lately for his firsts...but he is clearly our most verbal child. He says: dada, ball, apple, bye bye, chicken, cracker & dog.

He is sensitive and very engaging. He loves to hold hands. R is also quick to let you know when he is unhappy. We have dubbed him the Screaming Monkey.

R has eyelashes for miles and precious deep dimples.

P is the youngest (and currently the smallest at about 18 lbs). We call P the Spider Monkey. If you have ever held him you know why--he wraps himself around you!

What P lacks in size he compensates for in charisma and feisty-ness. He is a very determined, energetic little man. We have nicknamed him "P-doodle-doo" because he has never, ever slept past 6am.

P also has sweet dimples & a left eyebrow so expressive, I think it has a personality of its own! He says Dada & out.
