My mom and I ran a 5K last Saturday. It was nice to get some quality time with my momma. Grandpa Jim watched the girls at my apartment. They were excited to see Grandpa, in fact Jessica did a little happy dance and neither of them cried when I left (Allison fussed a little, but it was nothing, I know what she is capable of.) Grandpa reported that they had a huge pillow fight that morning, my little girls love high intensity play, good for you Grandpa! Here's a couple pictures of the girls playing while eating smoothie pops they helped me make.
Here's a video of Grandpa Jim teaching Allison to juggle.
I tried to get a video of Allison greedily snatching a fry from Grandpa but she wasn't quite as greedy in this video. Jessica is whining because she is tired.
Here's a video of the girls Skyping with Lady and Paw Paw on Sunday evening. They are becoming best friends and its really sweet when they snuggle out of the blue.
I just took the girls to the doctor today for well baby checkups. Allison was 32.5" tall (95%) and weighed 27lbs 9oz (98%). Jessica was 37.75"(75%) tall and weighed 35lbs 8oz(90%). Jessica was horrified after her and Allison got "stung" on the finger for an anemia test. She begged me not to let them sting her or Allison again. When I told her Allison had to get a couple more stings in the leg (shots) she grabbed Allison and hugged her with everything she had and panicked yelling, "NO! Don't STING ALLISON!" That scared Allison and they both held onto each other sobbing, in my lap, for a few minutes. After they calmed down a bit Allison started patting big sister gently to comfort her. I felt like such a villain I wish someone could have seen how sweet it was though. I had to hold Jessica away from the lady giving the shot to Allison because she made it clear, in no certain terms, that she intended to save sissy by any means necessary. I'm so glad my little girls have each other.

Grandpa enjoyed playing with those two a lot. They are so fun to watch. That is so nice Jessica has little sisters back. Glad to hear they are on the curve and healthy as well as happy. Thank you for the latest blog !
Wow, you girls stay busy! I can see that Jessica and Allison are close to each other.
The n another video it looks like she is offering her fry to someone in the restaurant.
I really like the picture of Jessica with the hula hoop. She looks so happy.
Good for you and Meema, running a race together.
I think the girls are going to be tall if they keep growing like they have been.
Thank you for the update from California. Lady
The juggling made me laugh out loud! The girls are so hilarious, and give so much more than the work they require (and it's a LOT). The snuggling video was the sweetest thing I've ever seen. I can tell how healthy they are if I pick them one of them up wrong and stagger from the weight!
