I have some pictures sitting on my desk that my aunt gave me after my grandmother passed away.  I thought I would scan a few of them in a share them with you.

I was about 2 years old here… I “think” these were taken by my aunt while my mom was in the hospital having Jenna.

That was my grandmother in the background.

This is one of my FAVORITE pictures EVER!  It was taken at my aunt’s wedding.  My mom was a bridesmaid and Jenna and I were flower girls.  My grandmother made all the dresses for the wedding herself!

Heather rocks and found me a study that discusses the Omega-3 connection and diabetes, if you are interested here is the link.

I wish I could get better at posting but I suck!

Jillian’s party went GREAT! I’ll try and post some pictures in the next few days. She racked up and everyone enjoyed watching her smash her cake!

Monday she went for her one year check-up. She is 31 inches tall (97%) and 20 pounds 4 ounces (40%) and I don’t remember what her head circumference is but it was 70%. They had us answer some questions about her development and when we stopped on the sheet she was doing stuff that the average 15 month old was so she seems to be doing just great.

One thing the doctor suggests we do is instead of giving her just whole milk he wants us to use toddler formula some. He had read some recent studies that suggest that increased amounts of omega threes can help reduce the risk of diabetes and since Michael is a diabetic he thinks making sure she gets extra omega threes might help. We have decided to give her half toddler milk half organic milk with extra DHA. Hopefully we can lessen her chance of being diabetic!

She left with three shots (MMR, Chickenpox & Hep A) and doesn’t have to go back until 18 months!

She has really started walking a lot better in the past few days. Tonight we went out to dinner with my mom and Jenna to Ruby Tuesday’s and Jillian was walking everywhere, it was so cute!

I promise to post birthday party pictures soon!
