I can't believe our little Marley is already 2 months!! We went in today for her appointment and she is doing great! Weighing at a huge 11lbs 11oz she is in the 60th percentile, but in height she is in the 93rd percentile. I am relieved, I swear I just worry that she is not going to have gained any weight, sometimes it seems like it takes her forever to finish a bottle, but then there are days where she just goes and goes.... They gave her some vaccinations and it hurt my heart to have her cry. Both Jack and Elle always did really good, they would maybe have one big scream but then would be totally fine, Marley on the other hand had a lot of cries, she was able to be comforted when I picked her up which was good, but she defiantly did not like being poked at all, but I guess who really does?? Here is a picture of our little girl who is growing up way too fast:
Here she is with big sis.... We tried to get Jack in the picture but he was not interested today.....This past weekend we went to the Highland City parade. Here in Utah the summers are filled with parade after parade. Every city has their own little celebration usually with a little carnival type thing, a parade and then a bunch of other various activities, it's actually pretty great it takes me back to when Rye used to do the one homecoming parade down main street, I so LOVED that as a little kid..... Elle loved this parade as it seems to be the one where you get the most candy. She did a really good job at waving to get some thrown her way, and although there were some kids who would come over and grab the candy thrown to her before she could get to it, she did good to try not to be too sad... I on the other hand almost drop kicked those kids, I mean come on if Elle went and tried to grab candy that was meant for another little kid you better believe that I would make her give it to the little kid, yet you have these kids parents that just sat there and did nothing..uhhhhh!!! but here are a few pics of the parade, my favorite part by far is the beginning when the cops on motorcycles come through doing little zig-zags with the sirens going... it's probably the only time I like to hear that siren, but then after they pass the flags come through and everyone stands and puts their hands on their hearts, I get chills with that, and finally the bagpipes come through and I just love the sound of the bagpipes, I could probably leave after that but I have a little girl who loves everything else.... we had a great time : )
I love Marley's little jean skirt. Can't believe she's already 2 months...crazy! Sounds like fun parades. We've never taken the girls to one...probably because we'd have to get up and ready earlier than we like. OH, and I would have gotten ticked at those kids (and especially the parents) as well.
