Well, looks like another month has passed since we've updated the blog.  Owen has been busy traveling for work.  We've both been busy being the parents of our three crazy little girls!

Charlie had her last day of preschool today.  I think she really enjoyed herself and even learned a thing or two.  Her teacher, Ms. Kathy, sent a personalized note home with each of the kids with a short recap of their year with her.  Here's a little piece of what Ms. Kathy said about Charlie, "Charlotte is such a joy to have in class.  She has such wonderful manners always being polite when speaking to her friends and teacher.  She is a good listener and participates in group time."  It took me some time to pick my jaw off the floor when I read it.  I couldn't believe my little girl has good manners and she listens.  Those are two things that are lacking when she walks into her own house.  I'm glad to know that she has learned at least a couple things at home!  Maybe because she is our first born but Owen and I have decided that she is our favorite!  





Gwyneth turned 15 months old and had her 15 month well check up.  She's still growing at a steady pace and is now 32" tall and 25.9lbs.  She's right on track developmentally.  Overall, she's the easy-going one of the three.  She smiles and laughs a lot  I think it might be her chubby cheeks but she's our favorite!




Pretty sure it won't come as a shock but Lillian had her 15 month check up too.  She's growing at a steady pace too and is still a bit smaller than Gwyneth.  She's 31" tall and almost 23 lbs.  She's right on track developmentally too.  You can still see the wheels turning in Lillian's head of how to get into trouble.  Most of the time it's because she is climbing on something.  We've turned our backs for a couple seconds to turn back to Lillian on top of the kids' table.  Lil may give us a run for our money but she is our favorite!





All the girls are really starting to play well with each other.  It is so much fun to watch Charlie make them laugh and be a good big sister.  Don't get me wrong, it's not always pretty.  Actually, most of the time we are just playing referee to make sure that everyone is treated fair and no one is getting intentionally hurt.  Bumps and bruises happen on a daily, if not hourly, basis around here.  I've noticed that Gwyneth and Lil team up on Charlie every once in a while and drive her crazy.  Pretty funny to watch them gang up on her!
