Harrison is 3!!

Harrison turned 3 on July 24!  

He didn't really have the best birthday though. A couple days before his birthday he got a nasty virus.  By the time his birthday rolled around he was feeling a little better, but definitely not 100%. 
 

He ran a pretty high fever, so we "camped out" in the living room for several nights. It was just easier to keep an eye on him that way. He loved it!

He got to feeling better. 

We gave him his big birthday gift (the tractor) and...

celebrated with cupcakes. 

We went to Nana, Pawpaw, and Aunt KK's house for some more celebrating and...

more cake!

Then the poor guy got sick again. This time worse- higher fever and just overall puny. 

We ended up in the hospital. He got an IV with fluids and some Benadryl due to a reaction from a shot he had gotten at the doctor.

He started feeling better before too long. 

After a little over 24hrs in the hospital, he was a completely different kid.  He walked out of that hospital feeling much better and with a huge smile on his face. 

Unfortunately we had to cancel his birthday party, but that means we will just have to celebrate even bigger next year!  

At 3 years old... 
Harrison is talking nonstop. Seriously. He has a lot to say. 
His imagination is growing more and more every day. 
He LOVES to be outside. 
He wants to help with everything.
He is a Daddy's boy. 
He loves Kinley so much. 
He listens to everything and understands way too much. Nothing gets by him. 
He loves trucks, tow trucks, construction vehicles, fire trucks, tractors, etc. 
He enjoys music and dancing.
He loves playing with Kinley, Addie, and his friends. 
He loves the water and swimming, but he didn't like swimming lessons. 
He loves sweets just like Tim and I. 
He doesn't like bath time.  
He's not a morning person. 
He's not much of a meat eater.  
He doesn't like getting his hair cut. 

Kinley 15 month and 16 months!

So... I'm terribly behind on my blogging.

Kinley turned 15 months in July and 16 months in August. 

She is one busy little girl!! 

She's really starting to move fast. She runs, but sometimes she gets a little too fast and falls. She tries her hardest to keep up with Harrison. She really does a pretty good job of it! 

She is VERY attached to her loveys. She has one or two with her at all times. She would take them in the bathtub if I let her. One day she took one outside and had it in the pool with her before I could even realize it!  

She is a MESS!  She keeps us on our toes at all times. You never know what she's going to get into. She keeps us laughing though! 


She's a good sleeper. Thank goodness!  She sleeps 11-13 hours a night and usually takes a pretty decent nap too. We just recently got her down to one nap. She's still adjusting to that. 

Overall she's a pretty good eater.  Lately we've been in a little bit of a hit and miss stage, but I think it's because she's just too busy to stop to eat. 

She continues to be pretty easy going...

...and a little bit of a diva. 

She's getting too big way too fast!
