Pop Goes the Monkey

So, July is almost over and we had a good/busy one. Peter’s birthday was a little over a week ago so I’m a little late on this but better late than never, right? The town we live in has Fiesta Days every July, usually right around Peter’s birthday and his birthday was the opening night of the carnival so we took the kids there. Unfortunately, Peter has been getting some new teeth so he wasn’t feeling great that day. Then on Friday we went to the parade with the McGhie’s and on Saturday we went up to the cabin for a little family birthday party. I will say that I will never again order a birthday cake from Albertson’s. I haven’t had the best luck this month with our orders. When I went to get Peter’s it was decorated wrong so they had to take off the icing and re-do it. I had ordered a Pixar car’s cake and it was a generic one. Oh well. The kids are playing together right now so hopefully I have time to pull some pictures off the camera. And of course I threw in a couple of baby ones just to show how much he has grown.

Speaking of growing, I must add that we took him to the doctor the day after his birthday and he is tiny. He was born at 7 pounds 1 ounce which was a decent size, especially for being 3 weeks early but he is tall and skinny. He currently weighs in at 18-1/2 pounds and 31.5 inches which puts him in the 4th percentile for weight and 75th for height.
