Then stir eggs and milk in double broiler till it sticks on the back of a metal spoon. Place whole pan in ice bath till cool. Stir every 10 minutes in the refrigerator.

It was pretty remarkable. Matthew said it was because someone was actually giving her some attention. That of course made me really sad. It seems like no one is getting any undivided attention these days. She weighed in at 10lbs. 5 oz. That is a five pound gain from her hospital release weight. She is only a pound shy of doubling her birth weight! She is now 21 inches long and her head is measuring 14 3/4 inches. These are both in the 6th percentile. Looks like she may take after the Truxton side of the family. Her weight is in the 25th - 50th.<br /><br />She is sleeping less during the day and loves to talk to her bears while I'm changing her. She also really enjoys her activity gym. She just kicks and kicks at the "Target dog" and bats Lion with her hands. She seems to be less gassy, I'm hoping the block feeding is helping. I can sort of see an improvement in the spraying and gagging. Graham has started to show a little more jealousy and is acting out be hitting and sitting on Gentry. I would like to blame it on the cabin fever, but I think it may be a problem we are really going to have to work on.<br /><br />Putting the kids to bed by myself is not really improving. I cherish the nights that Matthew is home to help. Hopefully Gentry will become happier playing by herself or be asleep while I'm putting Graham down more and more. For now we just all get in bed together and cry until one finally gives up. Most nights it's Graham who gives up first. He will fall asleep in the fold of my leg while I pat his back and he cries about the covers. They are never right; he wants them on, then off, then on and so on. I'm still loving being a mother of two, but am always wishing for more hands and the ability to hold them both at the same time.<br /><br />I wish I had a picture: Last Thursday Matthew walked out the door for work just as I needed to begin dinner. Graham had just woken up in the worst mood. (comes by it naturally) Gentry was also crying. She needed to fall asleep, but also needed to be upright so she could burp. I quickly put her in the front pack (baby bjorn) and crammed Graham into the backpack. I stooped at the couch to hike Graham onto my back. I then proceeded to make dinner very peacefully. No one was crying and Graham was just talking and talking about everything I was doing. After dinner Graham was carrying the backpack around and was begging for me to hold him.(sound familiar?) I'm so glad we have these fantastic inventions!Matthew and Lindsayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04325008168418029645noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34286900.post-46651714672810258102010-01-21T20:35:00.007-06:002010-01-22T06:50:16.200-06:00<span style="font-size:180%;">From Our "Weekend"</span><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/S1kPG4W07_I/AAAAAAAAA3U/TZqB1LKv8wg/s1600-h/100_4979.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/S1kPG4W07_I/AAAAAAAAA3U/TZqB1LKv8wg/s320/100_4979.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429387436653604850" border="0" /></a><br />We are very slowly adjusting to Matthew's new work schedule. I am getting better at being a single parent when the schedule calls for it. We have even gotten out by ourselves a few times this week. LLL was great! Everyone really enjoyed getting to meet Gentry. Graham had a blowout and had to wear Pjs the rest of the night. Somehow I only got out of the house with one diaper for Gentry so I owe the church 3 size ones, that we borrowed. Church went fairly well this week! Thanks to Andrea and Barbra. I noticed on Wednesday that they have installed the TV in the nursing mother's room. That will be fantastic on Sunday! I may actually get to hear/see a whole sermon. Gentry is sleeping about 5 hours and then follows up with 3 hour stretches after that. Graham is still finding his way to our room most nights but goes about 7 hours by himself first. I have been on a video kick lately, so here are two more.... Matthew and I both got new glasses this week and we are working on getting back into contacts. I'll post pictures of our new glasses soon. Hope everyone has a great week!<br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dx1pxQNvNwFQqT3WdfFUvGtJveU7HmSAsl9zOJD66-OTwHYv4kCftiSqakWLktM-7Izs5h9SHqpTTo' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dyMePc67xxFbBmZc_WfgB9s7PpYN3Rwmdj3Evv_CDrCuk0xG7F2_Oe-W7ZDhZEPDfyfT6T8av06OfQ' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>Matthew and Lindsayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04325008168418029645noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34286900.post-66905296998921365092010-01-18T09:31:00.012-06:002010-01-18T15:02:55.248-06:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/S1SqDtihPRI/AAAAAAAAA3M/EKLmLefL83c/s1600-h/100_4916.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/S1SqDtihPRI/AAAAAAAAA3M/EKLmLefL83c/s320/100_4916.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428150431628999954" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-family: courier new;font-size:180%;" >I Lost my Newborn</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">Gentry will be seven weeks old on Wednesday! I have already put away all of the newborn clothes. She is fitting nicely in 0-3 month clothes now. I used the last newborn diaper last night. Size one here we come! She has a pretty bad diaper rash, again. I believe she is allergic to the Pampers Sensitive Thick Care wipes. Cloth diapers today and tomorrow should take care of it.

Of which I am very grateful. This year I am beginning to wonder what he is trying to teach me? Peacefulness? Gratefulness? Using my time wisely? Learning to depend on him? Wisdom? Some days I am at a complete loss. I have just finished putting my two children to bed alone for three nights in a row. Gentry has decided that 6pm to 10pm is her "crying time." Graham has a very strict bedtime routine that works like magic if I get to follow it. We watch Wheel of Fortune from 6:30 to 7:00, bath and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">PJs</span> from 7:00 to 7:30, Three books, prayer, and three songs. Then he is out like a light. The only problem is he has to be snuggled while singing. This means one of us has to lay down and use both arms to hold him tightly. That is how he wants it. I can't "hold" both of them at the same time, so you see I am having quit the time getting both of them off to dream land. I have been "wearing" Gentry from about 7:30 till 10 most nights in the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Moby</span> Wrap. Graham hates this and cries "<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">holllld</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">yoooou</span>" until Gentry is finally asleep and I can take her off. So you see my <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">delima</span>..... <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/S0odDa4KwdI/AAAAAAAAA2U/AtYhHhO1Xx0/s1600-h/100_4899.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/S0odDa4KwdI/AAAAAAAAA2U/AtYhHhO1Xx0/s320/100_4899.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5425180645712904658" border="0" /></a><br /><br />The first night they both cried from 7:30 to 8:30, then woke up at 10:30 and cried until Matthew got home at 1:00am. The next night I tried leaving Gentry in a "safe" place while I concentrated on Graham. She cried in the swing so hard and loud that Graham wouldn't go to sleep. He kept saying "Gentry cry." This was with his bedroom door closed and the sound machine on. I just can't make both of them happy at the same time! The third night I let Graham watch Disney channel in my bed with the lights off while I nursed Gentry to sleep. She was almost out and Graham was laying over on my lap while I patted him with the free hand. Then the front door opened. Daddy was home and the party began (Graham got a second wind, like you have never seen before.) What on earth am I supposed to do? I can't reason with Graham and I can't stand to hear Gentry cry. Any suggestions??? Which one do you ignore and for how long? I am so glad Matthew is home the other five nights. He is such a good Daddy and very involved. I am very appreciative for that. For some reason nap time goes OK, which is the same routine minus TV and bath. Gentry usually sleeps through it which<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/S0odCs3SB3I/AAAAAAAAA2E/kwgQRvyYwHc/s1600-h/100_4910.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/S0odCs3SB3I/AAAAAAAAA2E/kwgQRvyYwHc/s320/100_4910.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5425180633361155954" border="0" /></a> is great.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Here is a sweet picture of the outfit Aunt "Coco" Jana bought for Gentry for <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/S0odDDkXadI/AAAAAAAAA2M/4REC3Vs9hHo/s1600-h/100_4886.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/S0odDDkXadI/AAAAAAAAA2M/4REC3Vs9hHo/s320/100_4886.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5425180639455832530" border="0" /></a>Christmas.<br /><br />She is really starting to plump up. Her thighs have a few rolls I actually have to pull apart and wash in the tub. Her long "fluffy" hair is starting to disappear. No actual bald spots yet. She is beginning to be awake a little more during the day. At night she usually goes 3 hours before nursing again. I am only having to change her diaper once in the night. She slept 5 1/2 hours after that first horrible night of crying for 3 hours off and on. That night I sent Matthew a text "come home," it didn't work. I guess the planes can't land themselves.<br /><br /><br />I had to include this crazy picture of Graham. (A dentists nightmare.) He is nineteen months and talking in complete sentences.

He hasn't stopped playing with his airport and new tractors(both Christmas gifts). He loves his baby sister and wants to "<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">tiss</span> her" all the time. I can't wait until the weather warms up and we can run off some boy energy. The "twos" are beginning to show. Lots and lots of No!! Mama! This too shall pass. Right?<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Only the grandparents will care, but this video was from today. I''l try to translate: At first he is saying "Oh Happy Day" from the song, Oh happy day, when Jesus washed my sins away..... Then he is talking about the blueberries. He is saying they are cold and eat it. Then I ask if they are good and he says"no", but then changes his mind and answers yes. Next he is saying Hat, hat, hat, on off. At the end he is saying eyes, eyes.<br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dwqroOvCtuBqgxqSP45bFpiNcNMv0xxILS7B8_kt8DF5ZkPcr4zWvDkB6UB9dHL9b3bwlKaSfdyBuM' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe> Well, there is the complete Horner update!

It was still fun! Thanks to Nana for the extra help. I finished smocking these outfits in October and could not wait to put them on them! I'm so glad that Gentry has so much hair. I didn't know if we would get to use the hair bow. I think we are going to use the last picture in this group, but I had to share some of the outtakes too.

Matthew was so sweet and generous in this endeavor and I can't thank him enough. Graham was the perfect child through the whole experience, I could not believe it. We ended up at Lasting Expressions, which was an awesome experience. If you have one near you it is worth trying them out. I do apologize for the lack of blogging. Chasing a toddler and preparing for another baby has about done me in. We also had a little bit of drama with this pregnancy, so it has been a little more difficult than the first one. We can only hope it doesn't forshadow how this sweet baby girl will act in the future. I am only going to put up a few from the shoot, but please enjoy! Hopefully the next entry will be about the birth of our daughter!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/SwROk4_EUiI/AAAAAAAAAzo/iz3HHbUTFBQ/s1600/horner,+l1439_1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/SwROk4_EUiI/AAAAAAAAAzo/iz3HHbUTFBQ/s400/horner,+l1439_1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405531848430604834" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/SwROJNShleI/AAAAAAAAAzg/lrxQa5J-NKY/s1600/horner,+l1444_0.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/SwROJNShleI/AAAAAAAAAzg/lrxQa5J-NKY/s400/horner,+l1444_0.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405531372844586466" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/SwROImZkwaI/AAAAAAAAAzY/H3qYOE3WG2c/s1600/horner,+l1457_1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/SwROImZkwaI/AAAAAAAAAzY/H3qYOE3WG2c/s400/horner,+l1457_1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405531362405171618" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/SwROIXFk1iI/AAAAAAAAAzQ/K_pfERG8YxM/s1600/horner,+l1465_0.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/SwROIXFk1iI/AAAAAAAAAzQ/K_pfERG8YxM/s400/horner,+l1465_0.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405531358294758946" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/SwROIKqh1FI/AAAAAAAAAzI/IRPZf_sHv18/s1600/horner,+l1483_0.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/SwROIKqh1FI/AAAAAAAAAzI/IRPZf_sHv18/s400/horner,+l1483_0.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405531354960090194" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/SwROHl3j_vI/AAAAAAAAAzA/Q74m53YsS-M/s1600/horner,+l1470_0.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VKI60dDs4H4/SwROHl3j_vI/AAAAAAAAAzA/Q74m53YsS-M/s400/horner,+l1470_0.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405531345082646258" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-size:180%;"></span>Matthew and Lindsayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04325008168418029645noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34286900.post-50784895010216532552009-06-18T11:42:00.003-05:002009-06-19T07:51:45.184-05:00<span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: trebuchet ms;font-size:180%;" >We Have a Walker!!</span><br /><br />Graham started walking today!!

If you have followed our blog at all, you are well aware of my love affair with many restaurants. We eat out a lot, too much, really! Matthew and I really enjoy finding those quaint little places in every town we visit or live in. <span style="font-family:lucida grande;">Our greatest</span> infatuation has been with a little place you could only find in the north or in Florida (snowbirds I guess). Every spring they open their doors and give away a free treat to every faithful follower that comes their way. As the weather gets better and days are getting longer I was reminded of this glorious little treat shop. This morning I googled them and discover the best news of the day. In the coming soon section I stumbled upon the little known fact that they are opening one right here in my beloved Collierville!!! Right after we shoot Graham up with his "9 month" shots we will be driving as fast as we can to the doors of our new RITAS!!!!! Sorry everyone but we will be a little late on Friday. I'm sure you understand that we can't pass up this awesome oportunity. Curton family, yes you will be compensated for our late arrival!
