To My Sweet Boy....

Oh Colt

Where do I begin? 

We have such a super connection.
Maybe it's because I spent seventeen years dreaming of you.
Waiting for you.
Praying for you.
All those emotions. Hopes. Planning.


Maybe it is the countless hours I spent when you where first born holding you.
Smelling your sweet baby head.
Looking into your face.
Memorizing every detail of your perfect little body.

Maybe it is because you held my heart. My soul.
Maybe it is because  we share so many of the same strengths and weaknesses.


Well, my sweet Coltie... you make me so happy, so proud, so full.
You brought meaning meaning to my life that I never knew existed. When you where born, something changed in me forever.
I pray that you will know and love and serve God as you grow older.
As much as I want you to stay my baby forever... I cannot wait to see you chase your dreams.

You will be 3 next month. Exactly a month from today.  I can't believe it! Already! I love watching you grow and change.
It's beautiful. Your beautiful.

Letting you go will always be a struggle for me.
I am trying. Hands open.




Regardless, I adore you, Beyond adore.

Potty Training...

We are starting to get serious about potty training. Storrie tells me every time she is wet or poopy, but has a bit of a fear of the toilet. Lilly had the idea of bring the potty in the living room so she could potty and watch Doc McStuffins at the same time.. It worked! We finally got her to set on it.  I am sure she is going to totally hate me for these pictures someday.. heehee.. But she is just too adorable !

If you know me at all you know that I am obsessed with shopping for Lilly and the boys. All three of their closets are bursting with tons of cuteness! I love that people stop me where ever I am with Lilly and comment on her clothes. Several friends say she is the best  dressed kid in Midland:) It is vary rare she wears her clothes more then once or twice. A blog I follow is having a link up party to sell smocked clothes for little ones. So I decided to start a Facebook page dedicated to selling my three little ones clothes. It is a work in progress.. I have 8 tubs of Lilly's clothes to photograph and list not to mention tons of the boys stuff. If there is something you are looking for (a size or style) that is not listed just message me and I will probably have it. http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.104700986372233.8664.100004969957700&type=1   I have a few things of Lilly's loaded and soon I hope to have a lot more plus some of the boys things. Happy Sh...

Even though she has acted like one since she was 5..Ha!        Brenna got to pick the restraunt. She chose Swenson's because of the ice cream:) Love Oliver's face here.   These two are so silly! I love how close they are becoming!!   Four out of our five   These two went to town on the ice cream. We had the sweetest waitress ever. I think Oliver had a little crush..ha!     Saturday Brenna and I went on our annual birthday shopping trip. If you hear load sopping coming from our house in the nezxt week or two, don't worry. It just means Jeff got his credit card statement. This girl can shop!!! It was extra fun for me. Brenna has really started to get in to fashion and has a similar style that I do (except mine is suited for my age). She aske...
