Cleared for a Year...

This week we visited Dr. Neuberger, Porter's cardiologist for a check-up. I was very nervous how Porter would do during his echo-cardiogram. He is not the quiet, sit-still and be happy baby anymore. Our little man is a busy, rough and tumble boy, with a little bit of a temper- alright a BIG temper at times. :)

To our surprise, he did great! Porter sat and ate his Goldfish like a good little boy and watched The Wiggles for 10 whole minutes. The test would have taken a total of 15 minutes, but we were so proud of him...what a champ!!

The even better news...we go back in a YEAR. A whole YEAR of no worrying about tests, and the possibility of bad news. There is still a mild leak and mild murmer, but we can live with that. We couldn't be happier, but a little nervous at the same time. I know Porter is healthy. He is growing, thriving, and amazing us each and every day. But there is still a little voice in the back of my head that whispers, "What if...". I am sure that I will shush that voice over and over for the next 12 months; probably for the next 12 years or more. But for now, we will enjoy watching our busy little guy grow and thrive...and keep amazing us every day!

Back to Work...

It's that time again. Mommy is back to work and she is once again slacking on putting posts on my blog. So, I am updating all of you wonderful people who follow me.

I spend my days at Mimi Snider's house with my cousins and friends on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays. Tuesdays and Wednesdays I am at home with Papa Turner. Mommy is back to work and busier than ever. She is Student Council advisor and now heading up the new Color Guard at ICHS. Homecoming for ICHS is at the end of September, so she tells me that she will be around more after that. I miss her, but I have had extra time with Daddy which is also nice.

It is Labor Day weekend and we are having a great time all being together. Here is a picture of Daddy and I before we went to get breakfast for Mommy on Saturday morning. It is our new weekly adventure. I can't wait to turn 1 so I can have a donut too!!

Mommy will post soon....

Love,

Porter W.
