Petunia Pickles

Petunia:Another baby angel who is adding grey hairs to my head, slowly but surely. This little sister is sixteen months old, with a sixteen year old attitude.
It absolutely kills me. I thought my boys were ornery, but Bubba and Tubbs don't have anything on this girl.

About two months ago she started waking up through the night. I don't really know what she wants. I tried a bottle and if she isn't interested, she acts as though she wants to roam the house and scream.
If I put her back in her crib she will scream for hours. She has the willpower of a monk!! Its amazing. There are night she will scream for 1-2 hours.
UGH!

Petunia is also my raccoon/squirrel. She is constantly roaming the house and looking for items to get into/hide. One of her favorite things to do is pull toilet paper off the roll AND pull shoes off the shoe rack in my closet. Of course over the past week or two, she has enjoyed grabbing presents from under the tree and taking off with them. (As long as she doesn't lose any of my gifts, she is fine!)


Two of my favorite things about Petunia:
1. She will eat about anything. The girl loves to eat and it makes me very happy. (She takes after her mother in at least one way)
Eating a Egg and Cheese Biscuit after a early morning run to WalMart.


2. She loves to dance and shake her rump shaker



She LOVES her pacifier. We never really thought to give her one, but when I went back to work in January, the babysitter gave her one. She has been hooked ever since.

That Stop Wasn't On My Itinerary....

So the Hogue's made it to Florida for our first official family vacation. It was Sawyer's first plane ride....and Simon's first plane ride that he can remember. We were excited....the boys were stoked. We had everything we needed! But it seems that Sawyer packed something with him that wasn't on our checklist: a big case of pneumonia. Yes, the little fella made it almost one whole day in Florida before he started heading downhill fast. Our 2nd day in Orlando we were in the Urgent Care south of Cocoa Beach. (By the way, to see a doctor more quickly, it helps if you vomit all over the waiting room in front of the receptionist. Little tip for ya) After chest x-rays they advised us to head to the ER in Melbourne, where they eventually admitted him to the hospital. So, we had 3 night deluxe accommadations at the Holmes Regional Medical Center. The little whipper snapper was a trooper though! The nurses loved him, thankfully, and made us all feel right at home. We were going to send postcards out with pictures of the hospital since we spent 40% of our trip there...but they didn't have any. Imagine that!Hmmm.....maybe its something they should consider.
