FLASHBACK FRIDAYS

Grandpa and Grt. Grandma Fabsits to Violet

WE MAKE'EM BIG

Yesterday was Violet's 3yr check up and all went well. She is still tall for her age. Violet is 39" tall putting her in the 90th percentile. I don't think she's ever been out of the 90's. She weighs 32.5 lbs putting her in the 64th percentile. I think her percentile on weight was lower last year. We also discussed with the Dr. her almost fainting spells she had this past year. Between April and October of last year she had 4. All happened when she hurt herself or felt some kind of pain. They are a little scary when they happen. The Dr. said don't be to concerned but to let them know if they become very frequent. She hasn't one since October and I think it's because she can better communicate with us when she hurts herself or doesn't feel good.
So all is good.
And yes, the shirt she has on is short in the sleeves and length and I am not buying anymore long sleeve shirts this close to spring. That shirt is a 3t too.

BIRTHDAY ICECREAM

Went to Yogurtini last night after dinner.

DINING WITH DINOS

Grandma Fabsits is still in town and yesterday we decided to do some shopping and have lunch at the T-Rex Cafe. It's a bit of a drive for us so it's not somewhere we go often. I think it's been a year and half since the last visit.
Violet loves Dino Dan on Nick Jr. We usually watch it on Saturday or Sunday while we eat lunch. So she was super excited when we told her we were going to eat lunch with dinosaurs.
Of course we got there and she wasn't a fan of the flashing lights, growling or the T-Rex trying to "eat Grandma's head".

She soon warmed up to the dinosaurs but told us she really liked the pink one best.

This was the Mommy Triceratops because to the right of her was a smaller Triceratops which Violet said was the baby.

Of course Daddy has no will power and bought a stuffed Triceratops.
Violet was pretty sure that dinosaurs were going to bring us our lunch and was disappointed when it was "just a man" that brought us our lunch. We told her they were to busy making everyone's lunches to bring out the food.

FLASHBACK: MARCH 1, 2008

TAKING HER OUT FOR A SPIN

The sun was out this afternoon and it was nice enough to try out the bike.. Violet is still figuring out the whole breaking thing and she keeps looking down at her feet instead of looking forward. She feels like one of the big kids now.

¡FELIZ CUMPLEAñOS!

An all Dora birthday party.




Chris spent 2 1/2 hours decorating the cake while I cooked and set everything up.

Look at all my presents.





Hey, we match!

A BIG girl Dora bike.

Chris bought trick candles that kept relighting. Violet thought these were funny.
