Girls weekend and 15 month checkup

This past weekend Marc, Jaeson, & KC headed to Manhattan for a boys golf weekend with our friend, Josh Huff. So what else were we to do but have a girls weekend? Aunt Shannon and Luke came from Hutch. My Aunt Karen that lives in Hoisington and Grandma Cline all came to our house Saturday. We had so much fun! Lukes loves Marleigh so much, but it is hard for him to understand that she is still kind of a baby and can't "play" with him. He is always wanting to hold her. Grandma had Marleigh sitting on the couch and Luke climbed up beside them. He stated, "I hold Marleigh." He reached for her and drug her onto his lap. Marleigh had a puzzled look on her face. It was priceless. Later in the afternoon they were playing on the floor. Once again, Luke wanted to "hold" Marleigh. He basically had her in a headlock. She wasn't exactly happy. She was going, "ehhhhhhhhhh..." Shannon made a good analogy. Luke with Marleigh is kind of like a dog with a kitten. The dog wouldn't intentionally hurt the kitten, but he might play with it too hard or maul it. He would never, ever hurt her intentionally, but wants to love on her so much!

It was a beautiful weekend. Jenni's oldest son, DJ, had a baseball tournament here in town, so we took the kids to a game Saturday and one on Sunday. DJ did great! We were so proud of him. The kids had a ball being outside.

Marleigh had her 15 month check up. Everything looks perfect! She is now 29.5 inches long and 21lbs. At her 9 month check up, she was in the 5% for height and weight. She is now in the 25% for height and 20% for weight! They were very pleased with her growth and development!

There is a correction to a previous post. Marleigh is working on a total of 3 teeth. They are swollen and still giving her fits. She hasn't been a fan of eating from her spoon at all. But bananas are her new best friend. She has been mowing off bananas like they are going out of style! I just keep hoping these teeth hurry up and pop through. I think Marleigh's tummy is hoping they hurry up, too!

I have some great video of Marleigh from yesterday. If I am smart enough, I will try to figure out how to post it in the next few days!
