To make being 3 official, we had to have our yearly check up.We asked Daddy to come with us because Mommy could not remember if this was a "shots appointment" or not.

| Dr Kim's office now has gowns for they boys to wear. They liked them but wished they were warmer. Daddy came in handy as a blanket while waiting. |
Chris weigh is 31 pounds (50%ile). James weigh is 32 pounds (50%ile).
Chris is very articulate. He is the first one to wake up 6/7 days of the week. He loves books and being read to. He is a thinker and a talker. His favorite color is still orange and he usually has something on that is orange everyday. He is the one that likes stuffed animals more. He enjoys puzzles and is very good at I Spy books. He likes playing games. When on a playground, he will be the first of them to climb to the top. He is stubborn, though. He has a harder time sharing with others and LOVES to go lay right on top of James without warning or reason. He is born to be a leader and when he is not, watch out because he is going to try his hardest to be! He LOVES women and older girls. We joke that our neighbor, Katerina, is his girlfriend because he almost gets starry eyed when he sees her. He loves his MeMe and she can do no wrong! He is a bit of a picky eater, he prefers sweets and crackers, etc.. He will eat broccoli and some meat if it is grilled. He loves cheese.
James is my little love bug. He is a "hugger" to anyone we met. He is the first one every day to give us kisses in bed. He enjoys anything that makes noise or moves because he makes noise and moves all day long. He listens to books but would rather play pirates/chase or listen to music. He can repeat the scenes of his favorite Disney movies like Beauty and the Beast. He is the first to remove all his clothes and LOVES just wearing his undies around the house, he also love pj days. He is happy at being a "follower" at times, then at others he will just play by himself. His right tube has come out and he is no longer allergic to rice but he has break outs when he eats a lot of it. He is still allergic to eggs and peanuts and seasonal allergies. He has a great attitude about it and honestly doesn't prefer anything sweet. He loves meat, beans, some veggies and fruit. Apples are his favorite and he can eat a whole apple. He doesn't prefer cheese or yogurt, he likes applesauce instead.
We have seen some terrible three behaviors but nothing we weren't expecting. They are working hard on not sucking their fingers. They are doing great during the day but as soon as they touch their beds it is like a magnet has attracted their fingers to their mouths. Chris will even tell me to look the other way so he can begin sucking! Too funny!
They are toilet trained during the day. They asked to try to wear their undies to bed this week and it was great for 2 nights then ... not so much fun changing the sheets. We told them we would try it closer to the end of summer again.
This is a fun age.
