What is going on in our world........
















Just a little update on the Morris family.........Last week was Julia's spring break so we had play dates and activities to keep us busy since she had no school. The weather is warming up and spring is right around the corner and we are VERY excited about that!! The girls have been able to play outside some and that has been GREAT!! Last week did start with a trip to the doctor for Maggie. Over the weekend I noticed the signs of yet another UTI (her second one in a month) so we headed in and had a cath done to confirm it. Poor baby is NEVER going to want to go to the doc again..... it was confirmed another UTI and she is on her second round of antibiotics (a different one then last time) and she will finish it today!!! Yea! She has been having to take it 3 times a day and that is a pain for me to do and remember as well but we are done with it today!! The doc called me this week and we have decided to do some further testing (ultra sound and another test that has a REALLY long name) that involves a cath. We will have these done on Monday morning and should have the results within 24 -48 hours. Prayers for little Moo Moo on that day would be greatly appreciated. Julia is now a grown up little 5 year old..... She went to her first sleepover at her friend Gracie's house last week and then we had Gracie over for a sleepover at our house. Both of the sleepovers were a success!! Gracie even fell asleep before Julia did when she was at our house!!! I am also starting to wrap my mind around the fact that Julia will be in Kindergarten next year!!!! I still don't know how I feel about her being one of 20something kids with one teacher ALL day.........I know she will love it and the fact that I can walk to the school from my house (it is that close) is comforting.
Have a great week!!

Girls Weekend!!!

We had a girls weekend a few weeks ago and Mimi, Elizabeth, and Libby came to town!! The girls had fun playing (sometimes) and sharing and going to MDO. Libby was able to go to Maggie's class on Friday as a visitor so the big girls were able to have some time without the little ones. Our time just flew by as always and we can't wait to see them again!!
Bath time!!
Snuggles!!

Love that hair!



our attempt at a group shot (minus Elizabeth)


playing with Mimi




Julia LOVES Libby!!


My baby niece!!


What do you suppose Libby Jane is thinking in this one?



As usual we could not have a visit without an illness and Friday Moo spiked a fever for a while but recovered quickly and no one else got sick.......it meant extra snuggles from Mimi and Elizabeth!!!



A new addition to our family.........

Julia got to pick out a fish for her 5th birthday.

She looked and looked at all the fish trying to find the perfect one.
She studied them all.


And selected her first pet.


I introduce to you the newest member of the Morris Family.........Puffy the fish.
