Happy Birthday Noni!

Well this is about a week late but we wanted to wish Noni a very happy birthday!! We had fun visiting her on the big day, and then seeing Bee Movie last weekend. (Cute movie)! We love our Noni SOOOOO much!!

Check out this crazy sinful dessert - the Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding.


In other news, we had to take the babes for a CBC. Worst thing ever! Sophia is fine. Samuel is anemic and now has to take extra iron. They expect this to correct things.
Julia's neutrophils count was zero. The doctor told us that this was unusual and that they probably just didn't get a good sample, so they had to redo it. Her count was 338 but they want it to be over 1000, so it's still low. A neutrophil is the most common type of white blood cell. Neutrophils help the body fight infection. A low white blood cell count usually indicates that the neutrophil count is low. It is easier to get an infection and harder to recover from an infection when the number of neutrophils in the bloodstream is low. However, all of us have colds right now so we're hoping that this accounts for the low count. Sweet Baby J could use prayers! She's going to have to get blood drawn weekly for a while. She had the worst time with it too... they have a hard time finding a vein with her. Poor baby.

Julia is also getting 4 teeth right now, and possibly moving towards taking just one nap a day. Yeeep. I don't think Sam and Sophie are there yet, so that's going to kind of stink if they're not on the same schedule anymore.

Sophie is our first little walker! Sam can take a few steps, but Sophie can take the most. It is too cute! She's still our silly girl and so much fun! Still just 2 bottom teeth for our Little Bit.

Samuel's tooth count is 6 and he's over 20 lbs of hulk. He feels so heavy to me! He's into everything and does not like to sit still. But he's still our little snuggle bug.

Today we went to lunch with our friend Kellie and had lots of fun. She told me she was hoping to hear one of the funny comments that I talk about getting all the time! Maybe next time Kellie!

Aside from the colds that we are all getting over, Shane has a stomach bug and I have my 4th stinkin' case of mastitis.
