Anna-Kate's injury
Poor baby got hurt on Saturday! We were at Rick and Kelly's house, and the kids were playing on the swingset. Maegan was swinging on the 4-person glider thing and Anna walked behind her just as Maegan swung back and Anna-Kate got totally plowed over. I saw her feet go flying! The glider has a metal frame and it caught her just below her eye, and so she has a perfect circle cut. And a pretty bruise and some swelling to go with it! She handled it really well, though- we all know she's a tough nut!

A few things...
Most exciting news- baby Dolan #3 will arrive on Wednesday, September 26th, at 9:30 am! That's 77 days away!
Maegan and Anna-Kate had their 4 year and 18 month checkups today. Maegan is 39 pounds and 41.5 inches, putting her in the 80th %tile for both. Anna-Kate is 23.5 pounds and 31 inches, putting her in the 40th %tile for both. They are the picture of health, and Dr. Omar was pleased that we only saw him for one "sick" visit the entire winter (Maegan's bloody nose problem, which is solved thank goodness.) Let's hope next winter is just as healthy!!!
And I have a funny story from each girl to share:
Maegan had to give a urine sample and was quite perplexed about why I needed to catch her pee in a cup. She finally agreed and gave me the sample, and when she saw the cup she blurted, "MOMMY IT LOOKS JUST LIKE LEMONADE!!!!" and then was so proud of her lemonade that she insisted on carrying it from the restroom, down the hall to the exam room. No one can say I haven't taught my girls to be proud of their accomplishments!!!
Tonight at dinner Anna-Kate (the horribly picky eater) had eaten one small serving of applesauce and a teeny piece of cheese. Since she has eaten pretty much nothing else but fruit snacks today, I was begging her to eat something else. I asked her what she wanted to eat, if she wanted a banana, some melon, pancakes, goldfish, crackers? And I kid you not, the girl said, "candy."
We did our retake of Anna-Kate's 18 month pictures and this is what we got (better than last week!)

5 amazing years
Before I write about Maegan's birthday, I need to show you what Ryan and I have accomplished in our first five years of marriage:
Exhibit A:
Exhibit B:
Exhibit C:
It blows me away when I look at these three beautiful girls and realize that Ryan and I have only been married 5 years! LOL We have started an amazing life together and added two, soon to be three, of the most awesome little girls to this world. Thank you to all of our friends and family for supporting our marriage and for loving us. And most importantly, thank you to my husband for being the most amazing husband and father I know.
Onto Maegan's birthday! She had a great day and is so pleased to tell people that she is FOUR now. She received many awesome gifts and is sooo thankful for all of them :)
The pictures above are from our attempt at Maegan's 4 yr pics and Anna-Kate's 18 month pics. As you can see, someone was feeling a tad uncooperative that day! I can't wait to go try again. (HUGE eyeroll here.) Here is a few other pics from that great shoot!
Pregnancy update:
I had my 28 week appointment yesterday. It went well...for the most part. I passed my glucose tolerance test! YAY! The Good Lord must know that Erin and a special pregnancy diet would not make for a happy Dolan family. And just to make that a little bit funnier, I've gained EIGHT POUNDS in the past month! No wonder I've been feeling huge all of the sudden. I was just telling Ryan on Wednesday that I'm huge and I think I'm as big now as I was fullterm with Anna-Kate (which I'm not, i just feel that way!) and now we know why! I dont know why the big jump, so i'll blame the baby. :) Oh and maybe my body was just holding back so I could fit into my bridesmaid dress for Nicole's wedding, and now that that's over it's no holds barred!
I should be getting a call today (I'm hoping) with my day/time of baby girl's birth! I cant wait.
