Birthday Bash!

Lolli and Poppy decided to have an epic sleepover for their birthdays this year. So they each invited 3 friends to come over after school (many rode the bus home). Their guests were: Paige, Molly, Payton, Savannah, Elli and Abigail. After school they all changed into the neon-painted white t-shirts that Lauren had made them and went over to That Fun Place for black light mini golf, laser tag, arcade games and pizza. After that they came back to the Pucillo house and went swimming. They had ice cream cake at the pool, then came home to decorate their party room upstairs. Once it got dark they roasted s'mores outside and played with all sorts of glow things. They they turned on the disco light and black lights upstairs and had a huge dance party. Finally they watched a couple movies before bed. The next morning they ate donuts and decorated more of their t-shirts. They had a blast! And Lauren and Zach were exhausted ha ha

Holiday World!

Gma & Gpa Morgan invited Lolli, Poppy and Ozzie to go camping with them at Holiday World with Paige and Troy, and Zach and Lauren got to go along, too! Augie (who just started crawling!) stayed home with Gma and Gpa Great. They camped at Lake Rudolph which is within walking distance of Holiday World which was super convenient. The Pucillo 5 camped in a tent and the other 4 stayed in their camper. Zach and Lauren took their kids to HW on their won the first day because they knew one day wouldn't be enough to cram it all in. The kids enjoyed the small kid rides. Ozzie and Poppy really liked the Scrambler. Lauren got to take Lolli on her first real roller coaster - The Raven! She was so brave!!! Ozzie is obsessed with the Holidog kiddie coaster and Poppy's favorite was the log ride (which Ozzie was too scared to ever ride). Later that night Zach and Lauren got to go back and ride the Thunderbird so awesome!!! The next day they all went back and had fun riding all the kids stuff. Zach and Lauren got to do the Thunderbird again with Bill & Theresa so that was extra fun. The kids liked the white water rapids ride. They spent the middle part of the day at the water park. Zach and Lauren took Lolli & Paige on The Mammoth, a huuuge water coaster. It was exhilerrating ha ha Ozzie loved the kiddie slides a little too much. Back at the campground they ate dinner and watched fireworks. The next day Z and L took the kids paddle boating on the lake and to mine for gems. Augie did great without his mom and dad for 2 whole nights. What a fun trip!

Happy 6th birthday, Poppy!

Poppy is 6! She is 45.5 inches tall and weighs 46.4 pounds. Her hair is getting closer to brown each year but still has some blonde streaks left. She's not yet lost a tooth but a couple are getting slightly wiggly. She got clothes and accessories for her (knock off) American Girl doll. She got a Kids Bop CD and tap shoes and an outfit and a karaoke machine. She requested Orange Leaf so they all went there before bed - yum!

Augie's 9 month check up

Augie is 28.5 inches and weighs 21.6 pounds! All is well :)

Happy 3rd birthday, Ozzie!

Ozzie is 3! He is 37.25 inches and weighs 33.2 pounds. His hair is still super blonde on top but getting darker underneath. He's kind of potty trained but still pees at night. He gave up his pacifier to the pacifier fairy! She brought him flippers that he looooves. He is finishing up his 1st year of preschool. He sleeps in a real bed, either a bunk bed or a queen bed, depending on which bedroom he chooses each night. On his birthday he got to go to school and eat lunch with his big sisters. He had a birthday party with a bounce house and even invited some friends! He had a Big Hero 6 cake. It rained during his party so then the kids got to get all wet on the bounce house which they thought was great.

Soccer times 3!

Lolli, Poppy, & Ozzie are all 3 playing soccer this spring in the Greenfield rec league. They're all 3 on different teams (and Zach is coaching Lolli's), which makes scheduling interesting, to say the least! Lolli and Poppy both really love it and it's whipping them into shape. Ozzie was more excited about it at the beginning of the season... he's losing interest as the season progresses ha ha

Augie's 6 months old!

He weighs 17lbs 5oz and is 26.5in long. He hasn't really started solids yet. He can hold his own bottle of pumped milk but he also still nurses from the boob. Such a versatile guy! He can sit up for a while but still topples over. He hates tummy time. He sleeps in a woombie with his arms out on his back in his mini crib in the guest room. He likes to get up at every odd hour. He usually sleeps til 7 or 8 now, though - hooray for no more 4am wake up times! He's getting more hair but it's see-through so he looks pretty bald. His tickle spot is on his chunky thighs. His older siblings love him like crazy and he loves them! He's very tolerant of their constant manhandling. His favorite thing to chew on are his feet :) He has 2 bottom teeth that are very sharp. He gets a kick out of shaking his head no. He loves peek a boo and being surprised.
