Catching Up.






So I'm behind on the basics. Molly is now 2 1/2 months old and we went for our 2nd check up ever last week and had some good news and bad news. Good news is that she looks perfect bad news was she wasn't gaining enough weight. Wish I had that problem huh? Why can't someone tell ME that? She weighed 10 lbs 7 oz and was 23 inches long and has a huge head apparently. I dont think she does but Turner did too. I think it was like 90th percentile for her head and her length was 40th and weight was very low. So they decided to change her formula. She's always spit up but seemed like the last few weeks it started getting really bad-like everywhere, projectile puking. So now we went from Soy to Added Rice to help keep it down and add weight.The Doc said to try this and then if she's still having issues then will move to reflux medicine. But So far its been doing very good-it's so thick we had to go get the bigger nipples for the bottles that let cereal through, like Y cut or whatever it is. Anyways, she's still as happy as ever and is such a good baby.She still rarely cries! She's still sleeping through the night, usually 11:30pm to 8:00am or even later. I only wish Turner was doing that. He will wake up btw 3-4am and want to come sleep in our bed. Molly slept in her bed last night for the first time and did super!
So that's where we are now...Turner's still going to PreSchool on Tues and Thurs at First Baptist here in Lenoir City and doing great! He wrote his entire name at dinner the other night and it was actually legible! It was so cute! He's pretty smart but a huge handful! Very very talkative and doesn't care who's listening! He will talk to total strangers and just start telling them stories and invites everyone to our house!!!kinda scary!
Well, hope everyone is doing good too!!!

oh it gets better.....




Whitney why did you take a picture of a door? Well, let me just tell you why.....
So I was giving Molly a bottle last night and Turner wanted me to put a movie on in his room and he wanted it now. Normally he's really good about waiting, but he didn't have a nap at all yesterday and was fiesty. So he got angry with me when I told him for the 3rd time that he would have to wait just a minute and that I would put the movie on as soon as I was done. So he stuck his tongue out at me and called me a name-baby, or something like that.. so then I told him he had to go to his room. He continued being angry and shouting, so I took my time. He then showed up behind the couch and said with a very angry voice "I need tape!". I said "tape? why do you need tape?" and he held up this piece of white paper that had scribble marks on it and still angry but very proud said " for my Keep Out Mommy sign!" . So trying to hold back laughter, I went and found a piece of tape and he put it on his sign and put it on the door. I died laughing in the bathroom and then went to check on him. He was still scribbling on the paper and said "See-Keep Out Mommy" so matter of factly and slammed the door! I was laughing so hard I didn't know if the pictures were going to come out. I had to call Johnny at work and tell him, Turner made his very first Keep Out Mommy sign!!!!
