It's Official!

Allie is officially registered for Kindergarten. We learn who her teacher is in August, about 2 weeks before school starts. She's very excited about becoming a kindergartener. There is a parent-child orientation June 25 & 26 to help the kids get acquainted with the school, teachers, and their peers. Luckily, she already knows 2 kids from her playgroup, which will hopefully make the transition a little easier.

Sisterly Love

As I'm writing this, I can hear classical music playing in Allie's room along with Melanie squealing in delight and Allie jumping around. The other night, Allie read books to Melanie and was so sweet and gentle when Melanie tried to grab the books. She kept saying, "No Melanie, look at the pictures." Allie is more gentle and sweet with each passing day.

More Teeth

Melanie woke up this morning with 2 more teeth and another 2 ready to push through. That explains why she slept really horrible the other night. I will miss her 2-teeth smile.

Allie Update

This morning I picked up Allie's Kindergarten registration packet. I can't believe she starts elementary school in August! Where has the time gone? Her immunizations are update to date, except for a TB shot. Her next adventure will be to the dentist. Here's the problem, she's never been to the dentist and not due to lack of insurance or procrastination on my part. The last couple of dentists Brett and I have had were horrible and not child friendly. The last dentist tried to get Brett to pay for an antibacterial rinse that cost over $200! Needless to say, he never went back. Hopefully, this new dentist will be better.

Allie wasn't feeling well this weekend with an ear infection, runny nose, and fever. She was so excited about getting the orange flavored antibiotic. I remember when she would spit out any type of medicine that came her way. So, I guess there's still hope for fruits and veggies.

Melanie's Dr. Visit

Melanie had her 6-month check up last week. She weighed in at a hefty 19lbs 2oz and measured 26 inches. She's in the 90th percentile for her weight and head size (it must be her huge brain). She received her immunizations and was a champ. She doesn't have to see the doctor until September.
