Almost December Already!

So nothing to new around here is going on. We are ALL sick with colds. I hate when my kids are sick. The feeling of being so helpless, especially to Avery. Poor girl. Think she is getting over it though! Pretty Princess!

Gabrielle is still loving school. Making a lot of new friends and seems to talk a little to much about this boy, Hudson, in her class. WOW, it is already starting and she is 4! Mom and Dad are very interested in this little boy who has "caught" Gabrielle's eye. :) We did some school shopping for here yesterday in Sioux Falls. Found some great deals!

Avery is doing great---laughing, giggling, cooing, and rolling over. Avery thinks her Big Sister is the BEST!!! Avery no more then hears or sees her and she is just a moving and super excited!

I will be sharing more pictures next post. Believe it or not I have not taken any since the last post!

Have a great Thanksgiving if I do not post again before that!

4 Months Old

So today was the BIG SHOT day again! Like the 2 month shots, not sure who cried more, Avery or Gabrielle. Gabrielle was full blown crying, holding her leg in pain, and holding onto me trying not to look at the shots!!! What a big sister, guess she loves her little sister and feels her pain.

Avery is 13 lbs 4oz ( 50 percetile), 24.5 inches long (60th percentile), and has a "big" head at 41.5 cm (73rd percetile). The docs say she is doing great and growing nice. We can start her on very little rice cereal now, but we shall see since we do not want her getting "backed up", which runs wild in the family!!! :) Yes TMI I know!

She is now rolling over from back to belly and belly to back! This only happens sometimes! We will walk into the room and there she will be rolled over, thinking a little help here please....someone.......anyone!!!!

We are so blessed to have such great girls and love them tons!

1st Day of Preschool

1st day of Preschool!

So today is a BIG day at our house! Gabrielle went to preschool for the first time today! This morning was a hard one for her, " Mom, I do not want to go to school, I do not want to go!" This was said over and over while crying this morning, while in the other room I have Avery crying to be fed and she is not liking the fact that Gabrielle is crying! (They get sad when the other is crying, makes for some interesting times at the Thovson household!!! But they both got over it, both ate breakfast, dad came home and had a "pep" talk with Gabrielle about going to school! Off we went to school. We (just like normal Danelle style) were the 1st ones at the church, followed by some kids and their dad shortly after! She had some classmates curious about her name and what she wore for Halloween. I stood around for a few minutes watching her interact with the kids. And by the time i left she was holding hands with another little girl! I left on such a good note!!! So happy for her and can not wait to hear about her day when I pick her up at 11:30!!!! I am going to get her something special so she can remember this day (thinking a jewelry box with the dancing princess into) and Dad, Avery and I taking her out for dinner! Have to make this a GREAT day for us all!!!!

I can not believe my 1st born is this old already! Man, do I love her to pieces!!! She is such a great kid! Love ya Gabrielle!

Updated 1:34pm (after preschool)

So she loved it and said she made so many friends! So happy for her! She goes again on Thursday so we shall see if that morning is better!!!!!
