Life

Sometimes there are events in life that make you so grateful for what you have. This event for me was a recent death of Mark's best friend Erin. In cases like this you have to wonder what God has in store by taking someone at the ripe age of 36. Does this make me look at my life, you bet.

Does it make regret choice in life? NO. It makes me want to live my life to the fullest and do what makes me happy. I am so lucky to have our amazing son Cole, and my amazing husband Mark. This life we have created, we will continue to make the best of.

I know it's hard to be positive in a situation like this, but we are trying. That's what Erin would have wanted ;-) We love him and will miss him so much, and will continue to live our lives with him in our minds and hearts.

Pumpkin patch!

Today we went to a pumpkin patch near Enumclaw. We had so much fun. I love how many fun things they have for kids to do to really make it such and adventure. Cole got to ride the tractor train, play in the kiddie corral, jump in the corn box and so much more! He even got to hold a orange kitty! Maybe one day he will get one of his own, but not for a while! I have always loved fall, and all the traditions of this time of year along with Halloween. So fun to create new fun memories and traditions with our little man. Iove this time of year!!

New Blog

Well hello there!! I wanted to start a blog for anyone who cared I guess :-) I wanted friends and family who don't live close to know all about Cole, and see pictures all the time! Plus it's a great way for us to keep track of all of our memories of raising our baby boy!! Cole is already almost 4 months old! I can't believe it!! He is growing so fast!! He's already in 9 month clothes... yes I know he's a big boy! For some reason strangers always ask how old he is, and when Mark and I tell them they always say "oh he's a bog boy" really? get out of town!! Cole's acid reflux is getting better with medicine, thank goodness. Poor little guy. He's a blessing though, despite the BAD LUCK that seemed to keep striking us in 2009, he was our one truly amazing blessing. Cole is also very lucky, having everything that I wish I had as a kid, two amazing sets of grandparents, 2 cousins (and another on the way in may) and so many aunts and uncles who lov...

Quality Time

Image
It has been so nice this week, Mark is on a somewhat normal schedule!! We had two days off together last week and two this week! We have not had time as a family in sometime! I enjoyed watching him get quality time with Cole this week, seems like Cole changes daily!! Cole even got to sit on the Harley with Dad for a little bit! Cole loved it!! It has been such an exciting week! Cole has a new baby cousin Melanie! Now he has 3 cousins!! What a lucky kid!! I can't wait to see all the trouble he gets into with all three!! So fortunate to have such a wonderful family for Cole to grow up around! It can be tough being a working mom! I am so thankful for my job only working 40 hours vs those moms who have to work so much more! I miss Cole all day, and wish I could stay home with him, but I have to support my addicting habit of buying him clothes! Cole has become very interested in standing! Does not want to have much to do with crawling! You put him on his belly and he just rolls right ov...
