Cade sure loves that belly button! We play this game at least a hundred times a day at this house, and every one is cuter than the last. =)

A birthday party!
Ella's friend, Kylie, turned four last week and had a birthday party at Chuck E Cheese. So fun!! Ella and the birthday girl...
"Hey, what's up, Chuck E Cheese?!" haha! She's such a goofball!
Happy birthday, Kylie!
Cade couldn't help but get in on all the clapping and singing...
Time for some fun!
These last two are so funny to me. First, Cade ran to the hot rod...
Then to the race car...
Is it any wonder this little guy just gravitates toward cars? He is a Davidson, after all, and his daddy's teaching him well!! =)

Ella- Healthy and smart as can be. =) At 4 years old, she weighs 41 lbs and is 42.5 inches tall. She has been off her asthma medication since the middle of May and seems to be tolerating it really well. We've only had to use an inhaler a couple times. We'll see how she does over the summer, and then put her back on it in the fall. That's when the weather changes really seem to affect her, plus she will be going to preschool this year. The long-term plan is to try to wean her off the medication for 4-6 months of every year. Anyways, Ella enjoyed answering all the doctor's questions "all by myself". She was very proud to show her how she can read and write everyone's names. She was also very excited that "I didn't even have to get one shot!" I was pretty thankful for that, too. =)
Cade- Even in the doctor's office, this little guy is a monkey!! He was everywhere and into every cabinet, pulling out tongue depressors and cotton balls and paper gowns. Luckily, the doctor found it to be pretty hilarious. She said, "He's a busy one, huh?" Ummm... yeah. Anyways, at 15 months, he weighs 22 lbs and is 31.5 inches tall. His little head still hasn't grown a bit. His head circumference has dropped off the growth chart again, as far as percentages go, but what do you do? He had a MRI in April that ruled out the possibility of a stroke (thank God!!) and only showed some immaturity of the ventricles. His reflexes on the left are still slightly slower than those on the right, but he is doing everything he should be doing at this age, and then some. As long as this continues, they'll just keep watching it. He's probably just always going to have a small head. One good thing that came out of all this is that, after finding out he has a double ear infection (!!), she noticed that his sinuses have been inflamed in all of his scans. No surprise there since his poor, little nose has been running for about six months now. She decided to put him on a three-week course of strong antibiotics to try to clear all that gunk out. After just five days, he is (finally!) sleeping better and I'm not having to suction his little nose every few minutes. I'm so, so happy about that and very thankful for these healthy babies!

Hours and hours of railroad fun!!
This train track has been the best toy these days- it keeps these two entertained for hours! Thanks, Daddy!!

Doesn't she do a great job? Cade is her definitely her favorite subject. =) Her pictures are more often than not perfectly centered, and she always manages to capture the cutest expressions! Go, Ella!
Super Mom!
We were at the gym the other night. Chris went to get the kids out of kids' club while I finished up on a machine. A few seconds later, I hear, "Hey, Mommy! Wow!"
I look over to see Ella standing at the door, about fifty feet away from me, totally impressed with what she sees. Chris is chuckling. I started laughing and started my last set.
Then I hear (in a voice to drown out all other voices), "Wow, Mommy! You're really good at that and getting reaaalllly strong!"
haha! Little stinker! We never know what's going to come out of that mouth of hers!
Needless to say, I didn't finish my last set, though I did get a good laugh out of it, as did most people there that night.
