July 17, 2009 - from CaringBridge

Good morning everyone!
We got up this morning about 9:30 a.m. and just finished our breakfast!  We finally have our sleeping down pretty good.  Last night was rough but we both had gas because of some ice cream the boys that work with daddy gave us!  It was so YUMMY (we just love that word)!  It's been so long since we sent you a message, but mommy keeps us on the go!

We are doing good; we love to crawl around, play with all of our toys, pull ourselves up, and steal each other's sippy cups!  We aren't walking yet; mommy says that she is no hurry and we can go much faster on all 4s!

We are getting ready for our first birthday party and hope that everyone can make it!  It's Saturday, July 25, at 5 p.m. at the clubhouse in our neighborhood (Spaulding Farm).  The pool will be refreshing and there will be lifeguards to watch over the kids swimming.  Our favorite restaurant, Lazy Chicken, is going to cater so there will be plenty of food for everyone.  And, of course, LOTS of cake and ice cream!!!  PLEASE COME CELEBRATE THIS PAST YEAR WITH US!!

We heard mommy on the phone with the nice people in Charleston this week and then she told us why she was so excited!  The TV in the Pediatric Cardiology ICU just went on the fritz so they are going to use our donations to help with the cost of the TV!  So that means, DEFINITELY, no gifts!  We already have so much stuff to play with and Ian loved watching TV while he was recovering from surgery so we are glad to help the other children down there! Not sure what this means but mommy asked us to type it "You can make checks payable to MUSC PCICU"! There will be some piggy banks at the clubhouse for your donation, if you can and want to do it!  $5 will go so far in this situation!

Mommy did take us to the doctor's this week, but thank goodness we didn't have to see any doctors or nurses.  Mommy was just curious how much we weigh because it's been so long since we had to go to the doctor.  Ian weighs 21 lbs and Bonner, 18 lbs .... can you believe it?  Scrawny little Ian is now 3 lbs heavier than his favorite sister, moi :-)

Mommy told us this morning that she and daddy are going on va-ca-shun (not sure how to spell that word just yet) tomorrow.  It's somewhere very sunny called Port-o Reek-o and mommy is excited to read books that don't have any pictures in them!  But don't worry, mommy will be home in time for our first birthday next Wednesday, the 22nd!

We hope to see everyone at the birthday party on the 25th!  It's going to be so much fun!  Mommy just yelled in to us to make sure that you send her an email and let her know if you will be able to join us so that there will be enough food!  Her email address is on the right of this page!

Love each of you so much,
Ian and Bonner
