Avery's 3 year stats

We went to the doctor today for Avery's 3 year stats

and (Aubrey's 3 year stats are in parentheses to compare)

Height: 38 in, 72% (38 3/4 in, 76%)

Weight: 29 lb, 31% (30 lb, 31%)

BMI: 14.1, 6% (14, 5%)

VERY comparable for the two girls and I was quite shocked that

Avery was a pound lighter, but also 3/4 in shorter :)

Big presents

Each of the girls got a "big" present from us for their birthday!

This was BIG in size...

Trolls poster!

Aubrey's "big" present from us...

JUST what she wanted!

Aquabeads!

We took Avery to pick out her big present...a new bike!

She chose this Frozen one to take home.

I wish the videos worked on the blog, because we got a pretty cute one :)

Fun with Wynias

The Wynias were passing through Des Moines on Friday afternoon,

so we met up with them for a few hours.

We hit up the Glow Golf in Jordan Creek

the kids had fun running around together 

Boden and Avery

Avery and Jaelyn

We then headed to the Jordan Creek Mall to walk around

The cousins had a lot of fun playing on the play place there -

despite their mothers' fear of germs! ;)

After playing for awhile, we ate supper with the Wynias

in the cafe court and did some shopping afterward.

A nice visit with cousins near our neck of the woods :)

Kaisand Birthday Party

One last day of Spring Break and one last (Trolls) birthday party for the girls!

We had the Kaisand family over on Sunday afternoon for presents and cake.

Happy Birthday, girls!

We thought the Trolls headbands were appropriate for the party!

Lots of presents!

Girls pics 3 and 6

We went to Digital Galleria in Pella 

This morning for the girls' annual pics.

We bribed them with Culver's and it worked! 

Enjoy!

(See if you can find Avery's shoes on the wrong feet and pony tail on her ankle...it just captures her personality even more)
