Karsyn and Kennedy 18 months!!!

We took the girls to their 18 month check up today...our 3rd doctors appointment in the last 5 days. Today though, was just a routine check up! Karsyn weighed 17 lbs 5 oz and was 3o inches tall, which BTW put her at the 10% on the charts!!! Kennedy weighed 13 lbs 4 oz and was 27 1/2 inches short, I mean tall! She is no where near the charts! Despite what the scales say, the girls are growing so big and strong and I am so proud of them!!
Karsyn is starting to do this huge grin and say "cheese" when I get the camera out, Kennedy still just looks at me like I am stupid!
Logan wanted in on all the picture taking too! Here is Logan and little sis Karsyn!
Kennedy on the run from me laughing...too bad this was as good as I could get because she looked really cute! We saw today that Kennedy is finally getting her front 2 teeth so she won't look like a vampire for much longer. She is also getting 2 of her molars. She continues to amaze me with all the things that she can do...climbing on tables, taking minor beatings from her big sisters (usually laughing the whole time), being treated like a doll, and it is so crazy to me how much they start to understand at this age! Kennedy is such a little baby in a lot of ways, I think because everyone has always babied her so she knows what she can get out of people. (sorry everyone that wasn't aware that she was taking advantage of you). But she is also such a little dare devil, she is always standing up on things and putting her hands in the air, thinking she is pretty cool! I love you Ken!
Karsyn also amazes me everyday. She is obsessed with shoes right now, of any kind. Usually at any point in the day, she will have a pair on. Usually at the same time she is carrying around a purse too! She is starting to do a lot of rambling (aka talking) and it is so funny to see her telling Kennedy what she wants because she seems to understand. She can say a few though like "shoes", "cheese", "juice", she tries to say "Logan", and a few others too! Karsyn is going to be our little soccer player because she loves kicking balls and pretty much anything else in her way, she will kick too! She is very coordinated doing it too!!! She is so sweet to her little sister, most the time, always giving her things and looking out for her! We love you Karsyn girl!

I can hardly believe it has been 18 months since they were born, and almost that long since we have had them home with us. We have had some major changes in our lives since they have joined our family, some good and some not so good! And while some days it feels like they are going to be the death of me, running around like crazy, whining, crying, all the normal stuff X2, I don't know what I would do without them! I love them so much and am so proud of all the crap they have conquered already in their short lives!!!

Man you know when your kids are getting big when you can put their hair in a pony! I still can't believe how big they are getting. Soon they will be bigger than Hud. Love those ladies. Oh and Logans is to die for! She is such a babe!
