Back to Blogging

You have NO IDEA how happy I was to see this smile!
You see, our annual spring trip to Cali took a huge turn when our little Pearl got sick. Very, very sick. When we left for San Francisco, Lila seemed a little whinier and more reserved than usual. She was clingy the first night, not her usual sweet self. Brian + I thought it was probably a teething issue or maybe an I'm-overly-tired-from-traveling issue. At her sissy-cuz' birthday bash, she still continued to be funky. I was getting kinda bummed. That night at the hotel was bad. She was acting really strange when she was sleeping and woke up on fire. I'm talking her skin was boiling. You know the rest--2 days at urgent care and temperatures that were sky high and a very miserable girl. Thank God for antibiotics! About the 5th day of our trip, our girl came back! And so did her smile. As a result, my smile came back to.

Lincoln was the best boy when we had to pay extra attention to his sister. I'm talking THE BEST. There is definitely something special about this dude. But believe me, no one was happier than the Linc-man when his sissy felt better.

L + L got to take part in the Krug family tradition of being measured on the wall. This boy is several inches taller than his sissy + cousin. Now we are working on getting more meat on his bones!

Although she's in the 70th percentile for height, Lila is having a hard time keeping up with her extra-tall cousin and brother.

Drama aside, we have the best baby travelers ever! Strangers comment in the planes and airports how well they do. They slept like champs in the hotel and at my parents + maintained their nap schedules the whole week. They are the best eaters and not picky at all. It's exhausting for the mama + daddy, and we have to take a TON OF CRAP, but it is very worth it. I can't wait to take many more trips with these two. We love these turds so much and continue to feel blessed beyond our wildest dreams.
