Cabin trip 2013

IWe just got home from 8 nights away! We went to Duluth with my mom and Craig, Lisa, Brandon and Jason! We had a great time! Friday we swam t the watermark then had a pizza party in Moms room complete with Pizza Luce! Saturday we were up early and went to bay front park down by the water. There was supposed to be a hot air ballon festival there... And there was a festival but not hot air balloons! Too windy!! There was free kites from Kiwanis club and a craft brewery tour! We flew kites, walked around then walked to canal park. We ate lunch and looked around over there ( it never gets old!) then headed back to partake in the craft brews! That was yummy! Miss Gia slept that whole time! Then we went up the hill to Spirit Mountains timber twister coaster ride! That was a blast! Beautiful views!! Then back for more swimming and some Blackwoods take out! Some of us spent some quality time in the arcade, too! Won some sweet stuff!

Funnies

One of my favorite things Grace has been saying when Max is arguing with her.. " I'm a big sister"... That is her go to saying to defend her honor and prove her worth! It's so cute! 

We have our hand full with Grace! She is very full of life. She started her "school" on sept 19th! She keeps up with her brother pretty well. 

Max started pre k 4-5's on sept 12th! He loves it and we have decided to have him in extended days where he gets to stay until 1pm instead of 11:30 am. They switch teacher since there is only 8 kids on Tuesdays and Thursdays that do extended day. The teacher is one of his teachers from last year, Mrs Kyle, so it's a friendly, familiar face! He gets to eat lunch and play outside! He likes it so far! Can't believe is will be 5 in less than 2 months! He's so big! Such a great brother! He is known for cheering for Grace when she goes potty on the toilet, giving her  high fives and saying such nice things to her. They play pretty well together! He is great at making Gia smile and watching her for a minute while I get the Laundry or some other small household errand! 

Georgia is 3 months!

So in a hotel room in Duluth, my baby turned 3 months! Since I have not yet won the lottery I return to work in one week! (Sooner, since my post is belated!)  

A bit about Ms Gia at 3 months...

She is a happy baby! I think she looks a lot like me as a baby! I just hope she doesn't get my little Book legs! She has really good head control and likes to be up and looking around! She is very easy going unless 1. She has a dirty diaper, 2. She is hungry ( and is getting ignored) or 3. She is in need of a nap. Gia is very close to rolling over... She can get her head to do a 180 but can't get her body to follow through. She has mastered grabbing my hair! As if my hair went falling out fast enough anyway! Darn pregnancy hormones! :-) She is wearing mostly 3 month clothes still but maxing out some of the sleepers! 

She averages about 8 hours a night..some a little longer some shorter. She takes many naps and if I can keep her awake long enough I can get a 3-4 hour nap and get some time with the big kids and maybe something else done, too! 

Her hair is starting to come in a bit more and it's staying light brown! I love it!! We have recently a started putting her in her high chair for meals and she loves sitting and making eye contact with everyone! We are on vacation so I don't have an approximate weight or length but she is a healthy girl!

She loves her daddy and brother and sister, mommy, too! 

She coos a bunch and its so cute! Her car seat in the car is still not her favorite spot! 

And she's awake so this post should come to an end!
