Check-ups

Today, the girls had well check-ups. Both did great during the visits and growing well. Mary Ellen weighs 37 lbs and is 39.5" tall. She was great and was a wonderful big sister showing Charlotte how it should be done. Charlotte was fine with being checked out, but didn't enjoy her shots. She loved playing with the paper on the table while we are waiting. Now, everyone can see from the picture that Charlotte is a growing girl and the rolls show it. So, drum roll please ----- At 6 months, Charlotte weighs 19lbs, 13 ozs and is 27" long!!!!! You can definitely tell that she loves her food!

Update

I have posted a few pics from my phone to keep you updated on the girls. I am still not able to post the many, many pictures that I have from Mary Ellen's birthday party and Charlotte's Baby Dedication. We had a fantastic party and a wonderful time that weekend with all of our family and friends. Mary Ellen continues to talk about her birthday! It was definitely a wonderful success! The girls are changing more and more each day. We are gearing up for the summer and many fun activities ahead. Hopefully, I will be able to get the computer situation figured out soon, and I will be able to share not only pictures from the celebrations, but also keep everyone updated on the many summer adventures that I know that we will have!

Happy Easter

Almost a week late, but Happy Easter from the Richeys! We had a great day of celebrating at church and with family. The girls were in their matching dresses and let me take many pictures. Mary Ellen was very excited about all aspects of the day and continues to talk about it!









Charlotte is in a major grabbing stage, as you can tell by this picture!


Mary Ellen thought that Charlotte needed to try out her sunglasses. Charlotte is such a good sport about all the things that her sister wants her to try!




"Look at my new bunny!"


"My bunny is almost as big as me!"


Charlotte was in awe of Bentley. If she could have crawled in or somehow gotten there, I think that she would have gotten in the car set with him. She kept looking at him, and "talking" to him. We kept saying that she was so excited to see someone smaller than her!




We had an Easter Egg Hunt in Caki and Bo's backyard. Mary Ellen was so excited to find the eggs and then find that they had money and candy inside. She did share with Charlotte and Bentley and helped them find the eggs too!




But, she definitely made sure she had the most! Next year, she will have to learn a bigger lesson in sharing as Charlotte and Bentley will be able to fend for themselves!


On a different note, there may be a break in pictures on the blog. Our computer died this week, actually as I was working on getting this post up. Paul saved the pictures from the hard drive, but I am not sure about the capability of uploading pictures from my camera right now. I will try to post from my phone as I can to get this updated as much as possible. Hopefully, we will be back in business soon!
