We had a big day yesterday! Susannah had a doctors appointment for her 5 year old shots. I'm not sure who was dreading it more, me or Susannah! I'm so glad that Charlie was able to come with us...I was really picturing that he would have to hold her down, but thank goodness that was not the case! There were only a few tears. It's amazing what a pink lollipop will do! Too bad the nurse didn't think to bring one for Caroline, too, because as soon as Susannah's tears stopped, Caroline turned on the waterworks as she screamed "more more!" Back to the appointment ~ overall Susannah did great! The ped. was amused at how much she talked during the appointment. She made sure to tell him that next time he just needs to go ahead and give her the shots first so she doesn't have to wait so long. She is a whopping 32 pounds and 38 inches tall! I guess she gets it honestly, but I'm hoping for a growth spurt soon.

After the appointment we headed to Columbus for lunch and a visit to Toys R Us. We are now the proud owners of a cute little Zhu Zhu pet named Jilly. I'm curious which will come first: will the novelty wear off or will Caroline eat it?

2010 in pictures!

Wow, I am the WORST blogger ever!! Let's hope the third times a charm!! Here is our year so far.

January
Guess who celebrated a birthday?! Well, if you know us, then you know that 3 of us did!

Baby Caroline turns 1!



Charlie celebrated the BIG 3-0!!


And I celebrated a birthday, too. At Disney ~ lucky me!


February
We spent the first week at Disney World! We splurged this time (well, we got a great deal!) and stayed at the Wilderness Lodge; it was beautiful and I would highly recommend it! We had an amazing trip. Charlie has been so busy with work so it was great to have a week of fun, family time! We have always said that we wouldn't be one of "those" families who do a WDW trip every year...but we are actually thinking of going again next May! We were busy and didn't want to miss anything, but we also managed to relax (some) and enjoy our resort. Here are a few of my favorite pictures (just so you know...that is not terror on Caroline's face; that is how excited she got whenever she saw Mickey and the gang, as long as they were at a distance!).








March
Christmas in March!! I got a mullet and even Santa Claus made a specil appearance!



April
I don't have any pictures downloaded from the computer from April...so I can't remember what we did!

May
Guess who turned 5?

Can you believe it...where did the last 5 years go? Susannah also "graduated" from pre-school.

I've been trying to get a good picture of the two girls together...this is usually how my attempts turn out:

I did manage to get a couple of good shots of them individually, though



I hope everyone has a great summer!! We plan on doing a lot of this
