Our Little Angel


Just had to post these sweet pictures I just took of Colt. I know every Mom thinks this but doesn't he just look like an angel!!! I love him to pieces!

Troy + Vasaline = A MESS!





Today, while I was feeding Colt, I thought that Troy was in my bedroom watching "Beauty and the Beast" (his favorite movie this week) I heard him yell, "Mom, I can't get down!" so I went to check on him. He had crawled into Colt's Pack & Play crib and got into a huge tub of Vasaline and it was EVERYWHERE! Of course, I grabbed the camera before I got mad at him! It was SO thick in his hair that we had to shave his hair off and it ruined the clippers in the process! I had to wash his clothes and everything he got it on 3 times in the washer to get it all out. What a little trouble maker!

Can't Forget Troy!



With all these pictures of Colt, I can't forget Troy! This is what he has been up to lately: being silly, playing dead and rolling off the couch, playing with Colt's toys & cuddling with Cookie during her 3 week visit. (We miss you Cookie! Come back!)

Baby Colt!



We are so glad to have our little Colty-Boy in our home! He is an angel and a blessing!!!

Colt in the Hospital




As most of you guys know, Baby Colt caught RSV when he was 14 days old and had to be admitted into the hospital for a week. Basically, RSV is a cold to older kids and adults but since Colt was so little, he couldn't clear out the mucus out of his throat on his own like we can. So every 3 hours in the hospital, they had to stick a tiny tube down his nose to the bottom of his throat and suction out the mucus. We had to stay until the mucus had cleared out on it's own, which ended up being a week. We were lucky enough to get Colt off of the oxygen the night before we left so we didn't have to deal with an oxygen tank at home. It was a hard week on Colt, being poked so badley all week and even harder on me having to watch it happen! It was a VERY long week of sleeping in a recliner chair and I am SO glad to be home and have my little guy doing so much better! My mom and dad saved the day by taking care of Troy all week. It was such a blessing to have their visit here overlap with our hospital visit. I don't know what we would have done without them!
