It's hard to believe this is the last month you will be THREE! You are growing so quickly and seem to change every day. You have been healthy this month and we couldn't be more grateful. You love cheeseburgers and pizza, milkshakes (your carnation kind) and gummy bears. You love all things outside. You love climbing and jumping and playing with Bow Valley. You love your fort and play set and this Dee Dee is pumped about that. You love running up the hill to see Dee Dee. You love puzzles and your I-pad. You love cooking and picking flowers for Mommy and Dee Dee. You love running and riding your gator and lawnmower. You love Bennett and miss him when you are gone although you love to pester him when you're home. LOL You love helping and are VERY independent. You love to read books at bedtime with Mommy and Dada. You love helping your Dada build things. You love climbing all over Co-Chri and playing with Nelly. You take the "long way" (up the hill instead of through the yard) to see Dee Dee...even if it's raining. LOL
You are the sweetest! You love to give hugs and kisses and say BYEEEEE as you leave. You are kind and you have wonderful manners that you're Mommy and Dada have taught you. You are SO special and SO loved.
This month has been the warmest "February" in the history of ever. There have been a few cold days, but overall, it's been very above average. I've missed wearing winter clothes but it sure has been wonderful outside weather!
Many days we sit outside in the yard and play... or on this day, trace your letters. :)
Driving with Pops and eating skittles! Fun times!
It's hard to believe that it's time for you to go to pre-school in the fall. This is you visiting a classroom.
Dee Dee went with you and Mommy to register at Grayson United Methodist Preschool. We went to get a doughnut to start the day.
Since it was the beginning of February, they had heart shaped doughnuts...
I am SO excited for you. You are going to love school!
I told Mommy that I may just cry when you start too. You love learning!
Grabbing some doughnut holes at registration...
You LOVE to play with B!
The two of you are a HOOT!
It was such a beautiful day... we decided to stop by the park in Loganville to play on the way home
You love to play with your I-Pad at Dee Dee's! You fell in the driveway. You crack me up how nothing can touch your "boo boo" for the rest of the day. haha
Snuggling with you is one of my favorite things to do...
I put a new golf game on the I-Pad. It amazes me how smart you are...
We often go and get the mail together. You are such a big help to bring the trash can up.
Dada and Pops had so much fun sliding you across the floor...
You and I made a Kroger run to get some Valentine's candy. SO.MUCH.FUN!
We went to Night Owl on our date too! :)
Pops put up a door in our bedroom. We're making the living room our new closet. :) You LOVE to help!
You have your last years CF shirt on. I couldn't resist taking a picture. It's fundraising season again and we are doing everything we can to raise money for a CURE!
We played in our backyard too!
Going to lunch at Chick-Fil-A! I love how you hold hands with Bennett!
Dee Dee rode with all of you to Ace Hardware to get some things for your house.
We had so much fun making cupcakes for your Mommy for Valentine's Day...
You put sprinkles all over them... sometimes from high up....and......
sometimes close up. :)
You are so good at cooking!
SO proud of yourself and I'm proud of you too!
You made this special cupcake for your Mommy! You love your Mommy something fierce!
We played out in the yard. Bennett was sitting with me and you had to join in. :)
Chasing each other is SO much fun!
Bennett came up to decorate his cupcake for Mommy...
Oh my heart! You LOVE to pick flowers in the yard and I couldn't love it more...
You discovered fruit roll-ups. ha!
You went to Frontera's with Mommy and Dada. Mommy said you were confused why I didn't go with you. SO cute!
Your Valentine's Day "loot" from Dee Dee!
You picked out flowers for your Mommy and she LOVED them! Happy Valentine's Day to Mommy!
Your Dee Dee loves you to the moon and back and to the sun and back again! :)
Looking outside and seeing you and Bennett coming for a visit makes this Dee Dee's heart HAPPY!
You LOVE to get gum balls!
This is a rare thing... you both in my lap at the same time.
Having computer time and sharing with B! SO cute!
Mommy and Dada got a new king bed. YAY!!!!
You helped Dada make a bed for Mommy!
I love to watch you ride all over the yard!
And... sometimes you push B along too!
Dada loves to take a ride sometimes too. haha
You drive Bennett all over the yard too!
How high can you go? WHOA!
Welcome home, Dada!
We stopped by Sonic for a drink... you love cherries!
Your concentration is SO precious! You're playing a learning game.
Helping Co-Chri wash Gunner!
You love Happy Meals AND their toys! :)
Co-Chri is so silly!
We laid out in the yard in the sun....
Afternoon hangouts are my favorite!
I love to watch y'all play on your fort too!
You've learned how to love on your Mommy with beautiful flowers. SWEET!
You and I went on our first "Dee Dee/Aspen date" since my surgery! We had so much fun. We went to Sam's...
You saw a HUGE box of roll-ups!
We also went to Toys R Us! You said you wanted a Jack in the Box. They were out though!
But you still got some treats... SO much fun! We also got the Hungry Hippo game.
We ate outside at CFA too!
and got some frozen yogurt!
I love dates with you!
Mommy said you played your Hungry Hippo game for hours and hours!
Giving Bow Valley treats is a favorite of yours...
I love for you to cook at my house! You are learning to crack an egg...
You can flip and egg and cook it all by yourself...
And you ate your entire egg too!
Look at what you've read at night... One of the books that Dee Dee gave Mommy for you, right before you were born!
Meeting you on the stairs while you come for a visit...PRICELESS!
You're peeing between the 2X4's of your fort. hahaha!
You and B love to greet Pops when he comes home from work!
Silliness!
Mommy and Dada took you to McDonalds!
And I rode in the backseat with you. You called me a SILLY OLD BIRD!!!! hahaha The things you come up with...
You love puzzles of all kinds!
You are a HOOT! You are so funny and love to make us laugh! You say such cute things!
Lindsey: Aspen, did you know you are my baby?
Aspen: Yeah...and Dee Dee's baby. But not Bennett. He can be Granny's baby. hahahaha
Mommy says when you're saying your prayers at night, you love to extend having to go to sleep by thanking the Lord for your doors and your windows and your floor. LOL
Your Mommy also said this:
Guess what this says? It says Aspen's birthday
Guess what this says (Mommy was going to say...Dee Dee's birthday)
But you said..."LEARN YOUR LETTERS!"
hahahaha
You are SO big. You're ordering your own food when you eat out.
You sometimes think you are a little too big. haha You picked up our coffee pot....hot and all and went to serve coffee. LOL You're not quite old enough for that. ha! The coffee pot broke and I'm sure you won't be doing that again. We're so grateful you didn't get burned.
You make me smile! You love your Dee Dee and I sure do love YOU! You don't go back to the CF Clinic until April. We sure do pray you will have a healthy and happy month because March is OUR birthday month. YIPPPEEE!
Please continue to pray for sweet Aspen! We're praying for continued health and are praising Him that none of our family has gotten the flu and we pray we won't. We're praying for continued weight gain and for Aspen to have an appetite. We're praying that he won't culture anything at his next appointment. We're also praying for our fundraising efforts and our upcoming walk on May 20th. May people give willingly to help us find a CURE for you Little Mister. I won't stop praying or doing all I can for that day. Thank you for praying alongside our family.
