Poor Baby

Turner started running a fever night before last and was very clingy yesterday. She has a little cold, a tooth coming in, and a little cough. Stuart and I were up and down with her all night long! She woke up this morning around 2 with a terrible nose bleed. She acted okay but it scared both of us! I cleaned her up and flushed her nose with saline. I didn't want to mess with it too much for fear that it would start to bleed again. It did just a little bit, but it has stopped. Luckily, she hasn't had a fever since around 2 this morning and seems to be acting so much better. I gave her a breathing treatment and that also seems to be helping her cough. I am home with her today just to make sure that she is back to her old self.....and to get some rest. I am exhausted from being up all night. Waverly was a little congested this morning, so I have my fingers crossed that she is not getting sick, too. We have a BIG surprise planned for her this weekend and don't want to have to cancel because she is sick. Otherwise, we are great and the girls are perfect....as always!

Yay Weekend!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the weekends! I love just being together as a family and not having to rush to be anywhere. I love snuggling in our pajamas, playing in the yard, and just being able to spend time together.

Turner is getting her 5th tooth!! It is one of the top front teeth and it is pretty rough on her. Although, she is still as easy-going as ever and sleeping pretty well, too. At 14 months, Waverly only had her 2 bottom teeth. It is amazing how 2 baby girls from the same mommy and daddy can be so different. Wherever we go we always get comments about how sweet Turner is. Waverly was a great baby, but I don't think God every made a sweeter baby than my Turner or a better big sister than Waverly.

Stuart has been busy today working on the boat trailer so it will be ready for our annual spring break trip to the Florida Keys. We didn't go last year because I was giving birth a week later, but it will be annual from here on out. We pull our boat and rent a house on the water so Stuart can go diving everyday, we can go snorkeling, go fishing, and have after dinner cruises. My mom is going with us so she can watch the girls so Stuart and I can try and have some time for ourselves. We are hoping to at least go out to dinner a couple of times.....we will see how that goes. :)

Here is a pic of Turner in the sink for the first time and Waverly on our "date" Thursday night to McDonald's

Happy 9 months ETM!

Where has the time gone? I can't even grasp the fact that my Turner is already 9 months old (she was actually 9 months last Sunday)! She had her 9 month checkup on Friday and is doing fantastic, right on track, and growing like a weed. She is 21 lbs 10 oz and is in the 89% for weight, 84% for height, and of course 97% for head circumference....she does have 1/2 Morrison and 1/2 Caddy genes which equals BIG head! Ha ha! Dr. Stone was very pleased with how well she is doing and even more happy that she has not been wheezing or needed any breathing treatments lately. We already have her 1 year appt. scheduled.....CRAZY!! She also has 4 teeth and is eating everything that doesn't eat her first. We also gave her a sippy cup with water yesterday for the first time and she knew exactly what to do with it. She had a little sip of water and loved it!

Waverly had a fantastic week and continues to be a big help to me. She is always asking to help me around the house or take care of her sister. I am lucky to have such a sweet little helper.

Long overdue!

Having 2 children and a full time job make it very difficult to keep a blog updated. So, I am finally posting in what seems like forever. Waverly is definitely not a little baby anymore and my gorgeous 3 year old is the best big sister. She absolutely adores her baby sister....seriously! Turner lights up when she sees Waverly. Turner is still the best baby that has ever lived. So many people comment on her sweet disposition and I have been asked more times that I can count, "Does she ever cry?". Stuart and I are busy with our two angels, but do not know how we ever existed without them! I know I have said this before but.......I really will promise to try and update more frequently.
