And their Birthday letters:
Jack & Maggie,
It is amazing to me that you are 3 years old today! Time sure has flown by as you have gone from
babies to infants and are now leaving behind your toddler years and entering
preschool age. It has been such an
amazing past year, and you have certainly changed so drastically this year. You both love Bubble Guppies, Mickey Mouse
& Team Umizoomi. You love chocolate
milk, though recently have discovered strawberry milk. Aside from Mommy & Daddy, Papa & Gee
are your favorite people in the whole world.
You are getting more and more independent and each of you have such
distinct and unique personalities. You
may be twins, but you are certainly individual little beings. I love you both all the stars in the sky and
all the fish in the sea!
Maggie,
My sweet little lady, you have grown and developed into
quite the little girl this past year.
You amaze me with your creativity and independence. You are very aware of what is going on. You seem to have your ears perked and are listening
to everything. You ask questions all day
long about everything, you are constantly learning and exploring your
world. You talk all.the.time. You love being a Mommy to your babies and
sometimes just sitting back watching you play pretend makes my heart melt with
your sweet, gentle nature. You are
definitely the bossy sister of the family.
You have taken that role to heart and although it means your poor
brother often gets two Mommies, you are also able to be very kind and
helpful. You are still our petite little
thing, and we struggle to get you to eat at meals. You do have your favorites: cheerios, ice
cream, popsicles, fruit snacks, macaroni and cheese, pasta & spaghetti with
meatballs. You do NOT like peppers or
pickles. You love playing with your
friends, especially doctor. Miss Maggie,
you hate being dirty. I think that is
why you took to potty training so well.
We still struggle a little, but you wear big girl panties and we
couldn’t be prouder! You still twirl
your hair when you are tired and we continue to battle with the pacifier. Just wait for your first dentist appointment
this weekend! You sing
all.the.time! “Twinkle, twinkle”,
“Somewhere over the rainbow”, “I love you”, and “Home” are among your
favorite. You are certainly a performer,
often breaking into song in the middle of a party, dinner or just at the
grocery store. Your sense of humor and
sheer joy in simply enjoying life is awesome to watch! Being your Mommy has made me so proud;
especially as I have watched you blossom into such a strong, beautiful little
girl. You still have your long curls in
your hair and your eyes have remained a cross between steel blue and
green. Although you can be stubborn and
assertive at times, deep down you truly have a sweet nature and are a protective
little lady. We look forward to all the fun
this year brings. Happy, Happy Birthday
Maggie!
Jack,
You are my wild child!
You always find a way to make something funny. You LOVE anything with wheels or parts. Cars are certainly your go to toy, and fire
trucks are even better. You have
recently started enjoying blocks and will sit for hours building and
playing. You are far more of an
independent player. You enjoy company,
but certainly prefer to play solo.
Sharing is sometimes a struggle, but certainly something you are getting
better about. You have your moments with
eating, but for the most part eat well.
Your favorites include: muffins, ice cream, macaroni & cheese,
peppers, grapes and spaghetti with meatballs.
You like pickles. You are a very
sweet little boy. You will give hugs to
everyone in a room and smile all.the.time.
You aren’t nearly as verbal as your sister, but you do have a lot to say
when it is on your mind. You are goofy,
and make us laugh constantly. Your laugh
is contagious! Watching you enjoy life
makes me so happy. You love singing
along with Maggie. You also love to
tease and taunt your sister. Sometimes
the way you misbehave is just so funny we have a hard time not laughing. You are happy most of the time, when you are
not happy, everyone knows it! You play
hard all day and never want to stop to sleep.
Sometimes you will try to continue the party in bed and we have to
remind you to stop and simply rest. When
you wake up you are ready to begin the party again! You no longer look like our little baby boy,
but truly look like a kid. We haven’t
delved into potty training with you yet, all in good time. I love being your Mommy. Happy, Happy Birthday Jack!
