Time For Your Checkup

The kids had their checkups today. Zuri's 6 year and William's 1 year.  Doctor McIntire was pleased with how both kids are developing all around.  Zuri didn't have any vaccinations today, but poor William had 4. He had 2 shots in each thigh and a finger prick to test his hemoglobin. His finger wouldn't stop bleeding. There's blood on my shirt, blood on the cabinet, and blood on him. Good news - hemoglobin is perfect!

Zuri:
Height - 4'1" (96th percentile)
Weight - 57lb 3.2oz (92nd percentile)

William:
Height - 31.5" (93rd percentile)
Weight - 28lb 6oz (99th percentile)
Head - 19" (94th percentile)

Zuri's Birthday Party!

We celebrated with Zuri's friends and family on March 11th at ZipCity.  The kids had a blast jumping on the trampolines and doing the zip line!




William wanted to play!

We let him....sorta.

Wordless Wednesday


Zuri Turns 6!!!

Zuri turned 6 on March 7th!  6....seriously?  How'd that happen?

Part of the gifts from Mommy, Daddy, and Bubby.

She's been asking for this for awhile.
William is a tad ticklish!

I surprised Zuri with coming to have lunch with her on her birthday.

Birthday girl at her choice for dinner, Kabutos.

William was mesmerized by the fire!

Shenanigans!

Best family pic I could get.
The day after her birthday, Zuri received a couple more gifts from us.  A polaroid camera and a Taylor Swift CD.  She took all 10 pictures within about 5 minutes!  Thankfully, she received more film for her birthday from others.



Zuri Lane,

We cannot believe you are 6.  You are such an awesome kid.  You are sassy, but you are also kind and compassionate.  You are beautiful and intelligent.  You are sassy (did I already say that?).  You are independent.  You are a great big sister and such a huge help to mommy and daddy when it comes to William.  You're reading like a pro.  You are just all around a good kid (despite the sass!).

We love you more than you'll ever know!

Love,
Mommy, Daddy, & Bubby

Zuri's 6 Year Photo Shoot

Here are some pictures from Zuri's photo shoot for her 6th birthday.  Dalonte did an excellent job capturing some great shots despite Zuri's attitude that day.  She was being VERY diva-ish and had a horrible attitude.  Oh man....  Dalonte is going to share a montage of the outtakes with me and I'll share those here later.  :o)
