Birthdays... Our first wedding.. and a Yacht!

This past weekend was busy and FUN!!

Morgan's friend Wyatt (boyfriend) and "O" (Olivia) (I like calling her O) turned one on Saturday!!
Wyatts B-Day was on Friday in the park and O's at a different park on Saturday. Morgan is really loving cupcakes and cake before turning 1. :)

After these fun B-Day parties, we had a family wedding on Sunday.

This was Morgan's first wedding and first time being on a Yacht. We were nervous, being stuck at sea (ok, ok only in the harbor) for 4 hours could've been a disaster. But, with family helping, it was a pleasant experience and she loved it!

She only made one big Terradactal shriek during the ceremony and was really good the entire day. :)

I love my little family!


Me and My Girl <3


I promise, I wasnt Michael Jackson, I was holding her very tight!!!

We love our Big PAPA

My grandparents love after 64 years of marriage is amazing! He was singing
unforgettable to her in this pic while dancing.Seriously, melts my heart! I look up to them so much!


My little 10 month old LIZARD!!!

No, that was not a spelling error.. you read that right.. my little LIZARD.....
So, Morgan turned 10 months on old Saturday and she has become out little lizard the past few days.
She has this tendency to flick out her tongue (A LOT), well, like a lizard.... Its hilarious and at times, a little frightening, but I attribute it to her teeth coming in and it probably feels weird.. I mean, how many times have you played with your tongue on your teeth when they are irritated?!?!?!

Even though she is a little lizard, she is the love of our lives!!! I cant believe how big she is getting! She still has no teeth. She loves avocado and tomatoes. She walks along the furniture faster and faster each day and is officially a speed crawler.

Also, All her friends are now officially 1 years old. Aww, they grow up so fast.



She was hard to get this month on camera since she is on the go so much.

Bring on the teeth......... PUHLEASE!

Oh my teething.. Yep! Its horrible! Just as everyone has told me.. I am living it! Temper tantrums (yep even at this age) , screaming, no sleep, no sleep, did I mention no sleep! Oh, and changing her diaper is like I am pulling her teeth! (No pun intended)
Being she is now almost 10 months and toothless, its making for a rough run. They are there, I see them, but the buggers just wont come out!!!!! Is there really a tooth fairy?!?!?!? I'd pay her to sprinkle some toothie dust on my kid! :)

Ok, now to the fun stuff we have been doing.

I joined Gymboree when Morgan was 3 months old and started in Level 1. I love it and so does Morgan!
We have made friends with amazing families and I feel so blessed! We are each others support and our babies are learning and growing together... How cool is that?!?!?!? The babies are very cute together.

We attempt weekly activities besides our Gymboree class... A few weeks ago, we went to the beach for the first time with our friends. Morgan.. loved to eat sand! YUCK! I mean, really? She was gravitated towards it! ewww.. But, she loved it and had a great day!

I look forward to what adventures face us next !


Morgans Friends...3 girls and one lucky dude!

I really wanted to start this blog when I was pregnant, then when baby girl was born, then every month until now.. I finally go the motivation after reading friends awesome blogs and here I am!

Where do I begin?!?!? Ok, from the happy beginning...

March 5, 2011...
"Mrs. Turner"... You test is positive and your count is good!!!......Congratulations!!
The best phone call of my entire life (ok, maybe the first time Steve finally called - 4 weeks after our first date).. but really, the best news! We finally did it! We were pregnant - again - and praying everyday this was the time we were going to have a baby!
The doctor visits didn't stop and were very frequent in the beginning and the end, but I was ok with that! The more reassurance I got, the better. I tended to be a bit obsessed with the reminder from medical professionals that I was indeed pregnant and it was a healthy pregnancy! I don't think I ever stopped worrying the entire time, although most would say they couldn't tell!

On November 7, 2011, I was so ecstatic to be on maternity leave! Yay! Time to myself to relax and prepare for our baby girl! uhhhemmm.... NOT - Yep! First day of maternity leave my water breaks, and at 36 weeks! AGH! "Steve my water broke" - ha, he didn't believe me at first until I said the "F" word!

November 8, 2011, Our sweet baby girl was born at 3:30 PM. I had a long and hard delivery (27 hours) but in the end I felt what my friends always referred to as the "most gratifying moment".. They were right! I had a sense of accomplishment that I had never felt before! And, Steve - was amazing during the entire thing and he never passed out! I'm so lucky! (And other coaches - Mom and Cousin Kelly were amazing!)...I have never loved anything like I loved this baby girl as soon as I saw her for the first time! AMAZING! And makes me cry every time I think about it!
                                                                    

Im Ready!!!
                                             
Awwww... <3 Introducing Morgan Jean Turner

                                                                    
Proud Daddy!

Morgan was a NICU baby, which no parent wants to face. The nurses and docs in the NICU were truly special people that I can never thank enough for their dedication and hard work to save babys lives! On Friday 11-11-11 - we got to bring our baby girl home! :) I LOVE my little Family! :)
We made it! Daddy drove like a 85 year old! haha..
Snuggled up!
                                          
There are so many things I would have blogged in the past 9 months, so Im going to give a pictorial blog! Here is the last 9 months of our family and our new journey! Its been so much fun with our baby girl, and many sleepless nights (and still sleepless), but I would not change it for the World. So, I leave you tonight with photos of our journey thus far!

Shout out to all our family and friends for support and love through our journey from way before the beginning. It was a long, tough road to conception for us and without you - we would've given up!

XOXO

There are soo sooo sooo many pictures (like thousands) so I just grabbed a few...haha..

This first set is on every month birthday to date! :)
