Christmas-Part Two

I know I'm a little behind, but I wanted to include Turner's first Christmas pictures. At least some of them. It was so wonderful being able to spend the holidays with family!

Christmas-Part One

I have to split the Christmas blogs up because we spent first part of the break in Philadelphia with our wonderful friends Robin and Jeff. This vacation was double the fun because our beautiful baby girls and best friends finally got to meet. Turner and Campbell were quite the pair. After getting delayed an entire day (I'm sure you all heard about the massive snowstorm) we finally arrived on Sunday. Turner saw snow for the first time and it was my first time seeing more than a few inches. We took the girls all over Philly, even to the indoor swimming pool. I think we both have future swimmers on our hands, which is great news because we're heading back to Clearwater in the near future with them.

Although Campbell is 3 months younger than Turner the two girls got along great. In fact, when we left Campbell learned to roll over. I think our little bug rubbed off! Thanks Team Baxter for inviting us to spend part of the holidays with you! We miss you guys!

Happy Half Birthday

Birthdays are a big deal in our family, even half birthdays. Turner turned 6 months on November 19th. What a wonderful day full of cupcakes and big smiles.
Turner now weighs 13.8 pounds and is 24 inches long. She's only in the 10th percentile for her age, but Dr. Wiley said she's right on track. She's going to be petite, but that's perfectly alright with us.

This month she's learning how to sit up and she's so close to crawling. She knows how to get up, but she just rocks back and forth. We're thinking any day now she'll be making her way down the hallway.

We're also eating big girl food. Turner loves bananas, but isn't too happy when we feed her peaches. She's really getting the hang of it and even tries to feed herself. Such a silly girl.

Today Turner met Santa for the first time. She cried for the first picture, but was good after that.Until next time...

Beautiful Baby Girl

Just wanted to add a few pictures of our little doll! She's growing so fast. Check back Thursday for a 6 month update.

Happy Halloween

Turner celebrated her first Halloween as a ladybug! She did great and even had the chance to go trick or treating with mommy and Aunt NaNa! We all had a great time spending the spooky holiday with family in McKinney.
Until next time....

4 Month Check-Up

I can't believe our little monkey is 4 months old! Boy does time fly when you're having fun.
Let's break down the numbers from her visit to the doctor. Turner weighs 12 pounds and is 23 inches long. That's the 25% percentile for both height and weight. While she may be on the small side, Dr. Wylie says she's very advanced for her age. He was impressed she could roll over, of course she had to show off at the doctor's office.

It's amazing how alert she is. She loves being outside and grabs at everything near her. She loves to listen to us read and loves when daddy does his rapping (weird, I know). She loves riding in the car, taking walks in the stroller and going shopping with mommy! Everyone tells me how lucky we are to have such a wonderful baby, but we already know that. We're so very lucky to be blessed with a happy, healthy little girl.

Such a happy girl!!!

Until next time....

Roll Over, Roll Over

That's right, friends! Turner rolled over for the first time today.
Justin and I were just hanging out, getting our little bug ready for bed. She wasn't ready to hit the sack, instead she wanted to show us her newest trick!
Hope you enjoy!
ps-Sorry for the insane cheering. You know how first time parents can be:)
