Tubes!!


This last weekend we decided to take Colee to Cabella's. You should hear her say "Cabella's", it's super cute!! We have heard so much about this place since it was built but have never gone. Colee loved the animals more than the fish tanks which was surprising. She didn't want to leave the main display right when you walk in the doors.
Today she had tubes put in her ears. I didn't have my camera which I am so sad about! She looked so cute in the little hospital gown!! She did really well considering the circumstances and the fact that she was surrounded by nurses...she is not a fan of nurses but loves Dr. Whiting : ) The ENT warned us that she would be really upset for most of the morning after the surgery so Mike took the day off to help me out with her...thank you honey, your a life saver!!

Amazing man!


My heart is so full for the love of a man that is so amazing! Mike is such a wonderful husband and an absolute incredible father! I am not sure what I did to be so blessed to have this man in my life but I am grateful for him every day and grateful he loves me back.
Mike works so hard for his family and each night when he gets home he spends the few hours he has for himself taking care of us. When Colee hears the door open and she knows it's that time of day for daddy to be coming home, she lights up and runs for the door. She is daddy's little girl!
Thank you honey for being the greatest blessing of my life! I love you!!

Cute kids!



The adorable neighbor kids were playing in mom's front yard and Colee saw the two little ones (Eliza and Daniel) so she opened the door and cute little Eliza came and took her hand and walked her out to play with all the kids. The older girls were so cute with her.
Although Eliza is more than a year older than Colee, my sweet little baby is just a little bit bigger than her but when they were holding hands Eliza said, "Adara, Adara, look at this baby" it was the funniest thing ever! Okay, so I guess you had to be there but it was so cute!
I love the middle picture where Colee is looking over at the oler girl with a look of "okay, now what?"

Colee


Colee at 22 months:

-She now calls me Heather and she says it in a very deep, authoritative voice...almost like she is angry. Daddy was Mike a few months ago but now he is "daddy" again but now I am Heather.
-When you ask her where aunt Bubby (Collette) lives, she will say, "Doja" (Georgia)
-She LOVES horses and we walk to them almost every night. She is able to say that they say "neigh" and also "click, click' with her tongue
-She loves to sit on our lap if we are on the computer and look at blogs...especially if she is in the pics. When she sees pics of her best friend, Cameron, she says "boy". I think it is because whenever he is with us or we are talking about him we refer to him as Her Boy.
-We live with my parents now and she LOVES her uncle Heath. First thing when she wakes up she starts yelling "bone, bone" and he is the first stop on her way out to watch Wiggles. I am positive he loves it at 7 AM!
-When she is at the grocery store she will ask almost every person we pass..."want bite?"
-Mike has taught her how to climb on the neighbors play yard. She is actually really good but now she climbs up everything in the house...cupboards, change table, fireplace...whatever she can find to get Nana upset.
-She adores aunt Sheraka! Whenever Sheraka comes over Colee runs to get her shoes because she just knows aunt Sheraka will take her to do something fun!

Colee has gotten so big the last few months here with my parents. She is so much fun. She is the light of our lives. Daddy and I feel so blessed to have her with us!
