Another "Three"

Well here is one more thing to add to my year of the three. We had our ultrasound the other day and found out that we will be blessed with a third little girl, little Solano girl number three. When people asked Ashlyn if she wanted a brother or a sister she would always say sister...she is wiser than her years. Claire loves to play on steps. In this picture she kept popping up and down playing peek-a-boo with Brock and Ashlyn across the table. She was cracking herself up for about 20 minutes straight. She is walking more and more, and has recently climbed to new heights getting up onto our kitchen table and constructing a ladder to climb to the top of our piano in order to get two toys that Ashlyn had placed up there for safe keeping. Ashlyn is a little particular with her toys...and Claire's toys.

I walked into the girl's room one morning and Ashlyn looked at me and said, "My animals are all kissing." I guess we'll have lots of this to look forward to as we raise three girls in a row.

The Year of the Three

Claire thoroughly enjoyed having her own cake and ice cream for her bday. She is one and quickly learning to stick up for herself and definately is becoming a match for her sister. Ashlyn turned three the day after, so needless to say we had to eat a lot of cake in April. We had a curious George swim party to celebrate and she got the movie as one of her gifts. Her favorite lines from the movie are "You go girl!" and "That's close enough!"

2008 has become the year of the three for me for three reasons. Ashlyn turned three, I am turning 30, and I am just over three months along. That's right we will be welcoming a third little Solano into our home in October. We'll find out soon whether we will add another girl to the mix, or a boy. Whoever it is, he/she will need to come with a lot of personality to compete with the older sisters. They are characters.
