I See Green People




Happy St. Patrick's Day !!!

It is pretty rare, even with Maise only being 2, having the opportunity to have a "first" for both girls to experience together. Well with the "Luck of the Irish" we had that opportunity this past weekend at the Northwest Side Irish Parade. It was a great time and both girls really seemed to enjoy the people, the music, and the floats...but not so much the shamrock headband. As you can see above we got one picture with the headband and then below you can see Maise telling Joe "No More" to the headband.  


Even Nessa was alert and festive.
 

Maise stood at attention as the soldiers passed.

My new favorite picture of Maise and Joe.

 I love a parade...la lala lal alal la

It was a great day for some outdoor family fun!

And the best part of the whole day...
was the long walk back to the car...
that took longer than the whole parade.

The parade was a great way to wrap up an amazing week. Maise is now 2 and Vanessa is 6 months. We are just trucking right along! Maise had a wonderful party with some close friends and family. It was a great time and Maise is very greateful. This week we also officially weighed in. I have been so excited to weigh the girls at the doctor on the same visit. And the results are:

Maise                                               Vanessa
25 lbs 1 oz                                        18lbs 4oz
33 inches                                          26 1/4 inches
19 HC                                                 17 3/4 HC

Vanessa recieved 3 shots and 1 oral and Maise got off free as a bird. Lucky girl! Both girls are perfect and doing great. Maise will not need to go back till 3 years old and Vanessa at 9 months. Break time!

Have a great week!
