Turner's first trip to the zoo

Miami has one of the top 10 zoos in the country. we had a blast although that meant 5 hours of walking which is way more exercise than i have gotten since last summer. turner has started sitting up in his car seat all by himself! a great new trick. here are some of the best pictures

We are in Miami!

We arrived in Miami on May 20th. So far we have adjusted well. We are in a great area that is really safe. Can't say that the beach is anywhere near by... just lots of buildings! My first chemo treatment down here went well. The staff at the hospital were so nice although it felt a lot like a mexican restaurant...everyone was speaking spanish, tvs were in spanish, music was in spanish, charts were in spanish. Definitely a different experience! So far, I am still feeling ok.... better than the last round because they lowered my dose. So I keep praying that it will last a little longer!

A weekend in Orlando

On our way to Miami we stopped in Destin to see the Barkleys on vacation and then again in Orlando to spend time with the Davis. It was a relaxing weekend and a great break from the long long drives each day. Our car was packed to the roof with turner and sterchi in the back. can't imagine adding more kids. where will they go?

Turner at 5 months

Turner has started doing many things in the last few months. He is fascinated with his thumbs (which he tries to break off all the time) and his feet. Who needs toys? He has gone to the pool twice... doesn't love it yet. He blows bubbles, laughs all the time, and smiles at everyone he meets. His teeth must be coming in because he constantly sucks on his gums. He is rolling over both ways and is sitting up in his stroller.
