A Visit from Grandma Jill

Jeff's mom came to visit us on Thursday & went home early this morning. 

We had so much fun with her here. I think the girls are missing her today. We enjoy having someone besides the 3 of us here during the day sometimes. 

On Friday we spent the day at the mall. We had lunch & did some shopping. The girls were so good the whole time! When Jeff & Mike got off work we all went to Brick Oven for dinner. 

On Saturday morning I went to get a massage from a friend in our ward. She was only charging $10 for a 30-minute massage! It was amazing. After I was done I met everyone at Golden Corral to have lunch with Jeff's grandparents. 

I shared a bite of my chocolate covered strawberry with the girls. :)

After we went home & the girls took a nap, we went to the Legacy Center to swim!

Jeff & I took the girls down the slide. It looks small but it's actually really fast!

After swimming, we went home & changed & went to Goodwood for dinner. We didn't think it would be super busy because it was almost 8:00 but there was a high school dance that night & it was still pretty packed when we got there. After they seated us we waited for about 20 minutes & no one had come to talk to us or take our order. We were just getting ready to go tell someone when the manager walked by. He realized that we had been sitting there for a long time & was so embarrassed. He grabbed a napkin & took our order and told us that our dinner & dessert was on them. The WHOLE thing! We told him it wasn't a big deal but he apologized over & over. He said he was surprised we didn't get up & walk out.

On Sunday Jill wasn't feeling very good so she stayed home from Church to rest. After the rest of us got home, the girls (and I) took a really long nap. Then we spent the rest of the evening just relaxing. We felt bad that Jill was sick on her last day with us but we're so glad she was able to come out for a little visit! We miss her already.

Baby Love

Morley & Wrigs love Hadley. Like a whole lot. It's getting harder & harder for me to keep them away from her when she is here. I have to find places to put her where they can't reach. :)

Yesterday, Wrigley was determined to get to her. Finally I just sat Wrigley on the couch & put Hadley on her lap. She was the happiest little girl in the world. Jeff & I were laughing so hard. She wrapped her little arms around Hadley and got the biggest smile on her face. Then after a minute she pushed her away. Then reached her arms back out to "hold" her again. And it was the same thing over & over & over.

Look at that face! So proud of herself. :)

Morley was watching this whole thing & we thought she might want to try. 

She thought it was kinda fun once & then was done. :) 

Oh I love my little cuties!

I love Cuddles

One good thing about our sick week last week was that I got lots & lots of cuddles!

My favorite :)

Livin' in the Nude

I'm oh so glad this week is almost over and am crossing my fingers that next week will be better for us.

Tuesday:

Wrigley had diarrhea all day. Wasn't acting like she felt good. Just wanted to be held. Didn't have much of an appetite. Screamed the saddest scream in the world every time I had to change her diaper because her poor little bum was so sore. 

We were supposed to go to Matthew's basketball game that night but I didn't feel like we should take Wrigs so just Jeff & Morley went.

I got Wrigley ready for bed & was feeding her a bottle when she pooped. Again. We got up to go get a diaper and she threw up. All over me & herself & the floor. Poor little thing. I got her all cleaned up and wrapped her up in a blanket and we cuddled on the couch. She fell right to sleep. 

Wednesday: 

Wrigley seemed like she was feeling quite a bit better. Still didn't have much of an appetite but the diarrhea was gone. And no more throwing up. Maybe just a 24 hour thing?? Phew. We hung out at home all day. 

When I was feeding the girls dinner, Morley wasn't wanting much & just acting kind of funny. Then she threw up. A LOT. At least it was in the kitchen this time and not on the carpet. I got her cleaned up while Jeff finished feeding Wrigs. As soon as I put clean pajamas on her she threw up again. And then again a little later. And again and again. All evening. 

We were supposed to go do our taxes that night but clearly Morley wasn't going anywhere so just Jeff & Wrigley went. (That was probably the only happy thing that happened this week...we found out we are getting a lot more money back than we thought! More than double what we were planning on! :)

Morley & I cuddled on the couch and she was asleep within seconds. Poor little lady.
She woke up around 1:00am and I brought her in our room. She was so hungry so we decided to try giving her a couple ounces of a bottle. She kept it down for maybe 20 minutes and then threw up all over the bed. 

Thursday:

No more throwing up, but both girls had diarrhea. 

Friday: 

More diarrhea.

Saturday:

Jeff let me sleep in. I needed it. And yes...lots of diarrhea. 

If I have to clean puke or poop out of one more thing, I might scream. I decided somewhere during the week to stop putting clothes on them, but the dang poop will not stay in the diapers. So I either clean it out of clothes or out of the carpet. 

I don't even want to think about how many diapers we've gone through.

The girls have taken more baths this week than they have in their whole lives combined.

Not really, of course. But it sure feels like it. 

At least they're still smiling :) Those smiles are truly what got me through this week.

I hate seeing my babies feeling yucky. If I could take their place, I would in a second. 

Pray for us that this next week goes better!

Date Night With My Man

Remember us??

We used to make the blog occasionally! ;) Now it should probably be called "The Wrigley & Morley Blog"! :) They're just so much more fun to take pictures of.

My parents have season tickets to the Jazz games & last weekend they offered to watch the babies so Jeff & I could go to a game. We were talking on the way up there about how weird it was to not have the girls with us :) We rarely go on dates anymore. It's sad. We definitely need to work on having regular date nights. We just always take the girls with us when we go out. They are so well behaved & we enjoy having them with us. But it is nice to get out just the two of us and be able to talk without being interrupted & enjoy each others' company.

The game was fun. The Jazz were playing the Sacramento Kings. Jimmer's team. Everyone was cheering for Jimmer and would "Boo!" every time he got taken out. They were still cheering for the Jazz, but Jimmer too. It was funny.
