Picture of the Week: Ice Skating Party at City National Arena


Isaac was talking to the girls about manifesting and how you can do/have anything you want if you truly believe in yourself and the goal you are trying to attain. Grace came home from school every day telling him how she was trying to manifest a sushi dinner, so we took the girls to I Love Sushi one night. All three of them love this place.



Saturday we stopped by Grandma Sunshine's new house. She was moving and needed Daddy's help with the dryer. Grace and Char loved the trees out back and swung around on them like monkeys.


Perry was reading me a book before she got distracted by the marker on her belly. She saw it and said "someone colored on my belly!". Grace told me the day before that she had colored on the wall upstairs, so I quickly reminded her that the mark on her belly was her own doing.


We hit the twenty-two week mark with baby number four. I've finally stopped taking my nausea medicine and am feeling much better, other than being pretty tired all the time. I never got that second trimester surge of energy this time around, and I'm missing it. Baby is growing great, and I feel him moving around in there more and more every day. Only Charley and Perry have felt him from the outside so far. Char thought it was the coolest thing. Perry just puts her hands on my belly and tells us that he's kicking her every time. She asked us if we could take him out to play the other day, which was pretty funny. The heartburn has come on strong, but it's better some days than others. I'm trying to only take Tums before bed, but I foresee myself taking a lot more of them in the coming weeks.


Sunday we went to City National Arena to celebrate Nolan's fifth birthday. The girls had the best time being loud and crazy in the locker room, eating pizza, and ice skating around the rink. Perry also got her first baby braids, and they were the cutest.




Happy Birthday, Nolan!!




Char was a little skeptical since she got a concussion the last time we were here. I reminded her that she had been ice skating since then, and she reminded me that it wasn't on this ice. After a few laps around with Mommy and Daddy holding her hands, she was all about it and went around on her own. I was so proud of her for being so brave.



Perry on the other hand put in zero effort and got Daddy to push her around the ice the whole time.




We had such a fun day, and Perry was exhausted. She fell asleep really early watching movies in her bed.


Another fun week with minimal pictures on my part. Give me a few weeks. I promise I'll get better about taking more.

See ya next week!

...Char was sleeping so peacefully Monday morning that I didn't want to wake her up. ...she made me a pretty picture at school with chalk. ...she continued her obsession with the easel and colored (and watched Toy Story ) while waiting for Daddy to get home from work. Hooray for panties! ...it got cold and windy again, but we played outside anyways. Isaac played catch with the neighbor boys, while JJ flew the kite and Char strutted her stuff. ...the girls danced around the living room. There is an iTunes Radio station called 'Frozen Radio' that the girls are crazy about. They play random Disney songs, and we listen to it all.the.time. (After watching this a few times, I realized that Char was trying to sing "friend in" as in "You've Got a Friend In Me".) ...Grace put Charley to bed by tickling her face. ...the girls got cake pops. Yep, for breakfast. ...we got to school a few minute

Picture of the Week: The Sleepiest Kid Ever When I pick Perry up in the afternoons, we have to wait for about twenty minutes before Grace and Char get back from school. I actually kind of love it, because it gives me a chance to hang in Perry's classroom when they are doing afternoon crafts. Monday, they made barns out of chocolate graham crackers and marshmallow fluff. Perry's favorite part was eating it, and she shared with her sisters in the car as we drove home. We made salads for dinner, and she kept begging Daddy for bites. He decided it was easier to just share the whole bowl with her. Perry is definitely our best eater of the bunch and loves pretty much everything you give her, including most veggies.   She was being super silly in the bath, so I gave her a mohawk to go with her sass. While I was combing her hair, she found the tweezers on the counter, and kept calling them "teezwers". It was adorable, so I had to get a video.

Mini Adult

I'm officially in birthday planning mode. Grace is going to be TWO in just a month. She's such a mini adult: I can't even believe she used to be as small as Charley! Grace is now sleeping in her own bed all night. She falls asleep with us, but once we move her to her own bed, she stays there all night long. She's also in panties full time. She still has accidents in the middle of the night once in a while, but it's easy to wash her sheet and the waterproof mattress pad. We're officially done with diapers with this one!! Grace has also learned to roll her eyes this month. It's hilarious when I tell her she's cute and she rolls her eyes at me. Such a diva! She tells us she's ready to "go to bet" around 7:30 every night and even around 1:00 every day when she wants to take her nap (I love pre-school for this one). Grace is totally obsessed with pouches. If you don't know what they are and you have kids
