Colts Birthday

Ok---- I know I said I was going to spend the last several  weeks catching you up on Colts life. Well.. that did not work out to well now did it:)

This is the best pic I could get of Colt today.. He is sick and oner very cranky boy!!

Everyone in my house has taken turns being sick. Taking care of a six year old and two babies under two is crazy. Not to mention the 49 year old kid. Jeff is the worst when he is sick and I can say I have never seen the poor man this ill in our almost 5 years of marriage.  I truly and in awe of the women who have time to blog several times a week. This is my goal. It is such a great way to keep a record of your childs lfe and also keep family in the know of their day to day life.

Well-- today is a big day in the Robnett house. Our little love bug is a big 2 years old today. There is not words to tell you how wonderful the past two years have been. I have to take a minute and give a big thank you to Colt's birthmother. Thank you so much Sandy for chosing life over destroying this precious little boy. And thank you for chosing me and Jeff to be this amazing childs Mommy and Daddy. I am still just on a cloud . I hope other woman can learn from Sandy's unselfish sacrife and make the difficult choise she did over murder. This is the main reason why I am so open about lilly's and Colt's adoptions. Hopefully it will help other birthmom make the right choice and also help to encourage those who are hoping to adopt.

Now my letter to Colt:
Love Bug-- You little man, have changed my life in ways you will never know.  Before you I closed my heart. Being around babies was so painful. I had such a emptiness and my arms ached everyday for years and years to hold you. I never thought I would have the joy again of being a mommy. But then two years ago you where born, all my prayers where answered.. The moment I saw you I became whole again. My heart melted and nothing in the world mattered more then being your Mommy. I was afraid to let you out of my sight for even a minute. You have brought me so much happiness.
Everyday as I watch you grow and develop your own personiality I fall in love with you even more. You have changed me, made me a better woman. You joined Daddy and me together for forever. You tied your sisters and brother together and made us all a family.
My greates joy every day is going into your nursery and being greeted my that beautiful smile, usually hidden behind a binkie. Your little arms reaching for me. When I "get you" you give me the biggest hugs and sweetest kisses. I love nothing more then to hear that sweet voice say "Momma". There is no sweeter word or sound. My heart feels like it will bust with love and pride everytime I look into those beautiful blue eyes.  You are my joy and my heart!!
Ok-- here is a little about who you are as a 2 year old--

   Your best friend in the world is your big brother Oliver. You follow him around and do everything he does. You two spend hours running around the house playing and laughing. You are such a luckey little boy to have a brother that loves you so much

You love your baby sister, but you are not to crazy about sharing your mommy with her. You are always kissing Lilly on the head and you can not stand it when she cries.

You are a pretty good eater. You LOVE watermelon and other fruits and yogurt is your favorite treat. You insist on feeding your self so there is always a hudge mess. You are so fuuny, when you are done with something you throw it on the ground and when our doggie Buffy gets it, you get so mad and say"MINE!!"

You love to play with trains and cars. Every surface in our hose has become a road for you to play cars on. Including my arms and legs and even your baby sister.

Your favorite show is Chugginton with Mickey Mouse being a close second.

You weigh 22 pounds and wear a size 2t and a 7 in shoes. You still wear a size 3 in diapers.

This last 2 years have been amazing . I am excited to watch you grow and see who you become in the next year.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY my Love!!!
