Time for a "check up" & a check-in

The kids like to watch the cartoon Doc McStuffins.  She is a kid, who plays doctor & fixes all the broken or sick toys.  She gives them "check ups."  So we played "check up."  And according to my $5 bathroom scale & a piece of paper on the wall, this is their current stats. 

Hayden:  41 lbs {95%}, 40 in {80%}
Olivia:  35 lbs {75%}, 38 3/4 in {60%}
Logan:  32 lbs {40%}, 37 3/4 in {30%}

This is what I measured them at in January.
Hayden:  39lbs!!!  39in tall.  95% for weight!!, 75% for height.
Olivia:  31lbs, 38.5in tall.  50% for weight, 75% for height.
Logan:  30lbs, 37in tall.  25% for both weight & height.

I was surprised that Liv weighed that much.  Good thing I got 3 new carseats, at this rate she'll hit 40lbs before we know it too.  Logan seems so skinny & scrawny, but its funny that really he is more normal, Hayden is just a brute.  BIG KIDS!

And a "check-in."  This is what we have been up to.

Logan got the flu.  Last flu, he & Jeff avoided it.  Somehow this flu (so far) just Logan got it.  I'm shocked!!  Just twice did he miss his bowl, which is just such an amazing thing.

 Jeff had a bowling fund raiser thing with a co-worker he wanted to go to Saturday.  So he took Hayden & Olivia, so me & Logan could stay home in peace.

 Logan was sad he didn't get to go.  But he rested well while they were away & they had fun!

 They brought Logan home a toy combine.

 Sunday, though the wind was killer, the sun was at least shining.  So we got out for some fresh air.  Poor Logan still looks rough :(

 We did some yardwork.  Like hauled away 13 lawn bags full, yardwork.  Hayden worked HARD.  He honestly was a lot of help shoveling piles of stuff into bags.  He worked for hours on end. 

 We also planted some seeds to try to get them started growing indoors, so if it ever warms up once, we can get them into a garden this summer.

 

 I did one more wipes box upgrade. 

 Cut off the flaps.

 And covered it in fun duck tape!

 Sewed another liner.  Just like I did here.  This time out of a Walmart pillow case, to match the boys Walmart bedsheet curtains. 

 Ta-da!!

 And since Logan missed bowling, Jeff, Hayden & Liv also brought home a bowling game.  We finally got a chance to play tonight.

 They prefer to bowl sitting down.

 Logan finally got the hang of it.

 Hayden, oh Hayden.  He got pretty upset if he didn't get all his pins knocked down.

 He had to bowl from pretty close up so he knocked a lot down.

 Clearly, he's feeling better!!

 Then there is Liv.  Notice the ball?  I think we have dents in our walls!

 We laughed at her ball flying through the air.  She tantrumed.

 She missed.  She tantrumed.

And besides the fact that I need to organize & buy a few more storage bins, the office is almost done.  Ok, a few projects to finish.  Some bins to buy.  And some chairs to find.  But its getting there.  Did you catch the sneak peek of it in the 1st Livi tantrum picture? 

 

I think thats all for us this week.
