Morgen's BIG weekend!

Oh my sweet Morgen...your poops are not so sweet! This girl has always had the most EXPLOSIVE poops for a baby...but this takes the cake!

The story of how it was found is the funny part....So Saturday morning my Mom & Dad came into town to surprise US... & also to surprise my mom's best friend Becky, who was in town visiting. I had just gotten back from my morning run when my parents arrived...Morgen was in her crib rolling around...she was just waking up so my mom went in to see her & say Hi...she put her hand under her back to pick her up...as she does this she says, "Oh Gena, she's hot --- her back is all sweaty" ... well, as you can see from below, it was not SWEAT! HAhaaaa...

These types of situations call for an IMMEDIATE bath! And a Brillo pad as Matt said!

After we got her cleaned up & ready for the day, we met my mom's best friend at the Mall...which is just what I needed ---- MORAL support to get Morgen's EAR'S PIERCED! I have been getting mentally ready & thinking about it for a couple of weeks now, but the time was right. I got JaCee's ear's pierced when she was 5 months old. Morgen will be 4 months old this week, so it was time.

Here is Morgen before getting her ear's pierced...

Oouuccchhh!!!!

All done!
Actually there were a few other mom's in the store when we got Morgen's ear's done...they left the store & when we walked out, they came over & said we had to leave the store--- we couldn't watch it happen. Morgen did better than I thought she would. She cried less for this than she did for her vaccinations...and less then JaCee did when she got her ear's pierced.


This week will be about JaCee. She has surgery on Wednesday. They say after 3 day's she can take off the bandages & she'll be doing good then. Poor thing has no idea what is going to happen. I've been talking to her little by little about it --- explaining she'll take some medicine & go to sleep & when she wakes up she'll have pretty thumbs. She smiles & says, "momma go?" I said yes, momma will go with you. Oh, boy --- please pray for me. Momma might be crying more than JaCee will.
