What a fun filled month! We're SO grateful that you are doing so well. You got a pretty bad cold this month, but it cleared on it's own and didn't require antibiotics. Every month that goes by and your lungs remain healthy, your Dee Dee is overwhelmed with JOY! Thanking the Lord for His hand on you. It's been such an eventful month with so many fun-filled things.
We started the month celebrating your birthday by going camping at FDR State Park and going to the Animal park and Callaway Gardens. SO. MUCH. FUN!
You went down early with Dee Dee and Pops! We talked about going to Colorado in June and you taking your first plane trip. You have your hand in the air in the picture because you were saying that the plane was going to go "round and round and round" and that you would get dizzy! LOL
We blew a tire (first time ever) near Greenville, GA and had to call AAA for assistance. We had to wait about an hour on the side of the road. We weren't big fans of that. :)
When we got to the park... we played on the playground while Pops set up the camper!
The things this Dee Dee will do for you... LOL
You love to climb anywhere and anyplace...
And one of your favorite things to do right now is to be chased. I can chase you for about 60 seconds. haha! Co-Chri took over from there. :)
It was just about ALL I could do to get you to try on this Junior Ranger hat. You weren't a fan but so cute!
We got an ice cream and enjoyed the beautiful view on Pine Mountain
You really wanted to look through the telescope...
Anything water, fish, bugs and outside is something you LOVE!
You and Nelly watching the fisherman
Even at the campground... you love to run!
We laid in Dee Dee's ENO for a little bit...
You love to open the window to the door on our camper! :)
DaDa makes the best breakfasts while camping...
You'll have a few bites but you really want to get back to holding moths and butterflies...
Time for a short break in your camper! Too cute! :)
You can be so silly sometimes
You can cast your rod just as well as any adult I know. You LOVE to fish!
A man let you help reel in a fish!
You were so proud!
Dee Dee bought you and B a bug net and you've gotten so much use out of them...
We had a picnic near Liberty Bell Park in Pine Mountain. Dee Dee used to come here with her Ree Ree and Papa. Sweet memories!
Dada brought his drone. You and Bennett loved to chase it!
Nelly bought you an ice cream ball for your birthday. You kick it around and in about 20 minutes it makes ice cream. It worked REALLY well! Yum!
We went to Pine Mountain Wild Animal Park and had SO much fun!
Feeding the animals out the window...
You really loved riding the helicopter at the park!
I love that you LOVE your bug catcher!
Dee Dee and Pops had a flat ON the way down to camp AND on the way back! Craziness
We went to Callaway Gardens and you LOVED the butterfly house! :)
You were SO excited to catch a butterfly...
I love how pumped you were! :)
We saw a purple flower that looked like a dandelion :)
We had our picture made in the same swing that Dee Dee had her picture made with Aunt Rosie before she passed away in 1989. Sweet!
Having a flat tire made us eat dinner really late. :) You decided to eat once we were LEAVING. You know you have CF if your family waits! LOL
The pollen is here... BAD! Thankfully you don't seem to have any allergies!
You love to snuggle with Dee Dee and play on your I-Pad
The best thing about warmer weather is playing outside...
Dada and Pops are building a cover for our camper! :)
You love throwing your frog frisbee...
And you love helping the guys because you are big and strong! :)
There isn't a prettier sight than to see you and Bennett running up the driveway to Dee Dee's house! :)
Looking for Charlie on warm days is your favorite thing to do!
Chasing Dada on your John Deere is too cute!
You love to climb.... anything!
This is one of my favorite pictures. I asked you to put your arm around B! HAHA! Bennett kept his smile... even if you were choking him! :)
OH my word, y'all are cute!
This water table was SO worth the money... Bennett loves to get soaked. You love to play with the water but you don't appreciate getting wet. LOL
The hobbit hole at The Story Shop in Monroe...
I love it when you get tickled!
You love to run with Co-Chri!
You saw our next door neighbor, Sam, outside playing! I can't wait for y'all to maybe have play dates. :)
It's rained a good bit this month... the creek was overflowing one day!
Pops found an airplane kite!
We went to Thai and Bass Pro. You were exhausted!
I love when you fall asleep in the car and I get extra snuggles...
SO silly!
This looks kind of natural on Dada. HA!
Mommy came up with a cool way to dye eggs using cool whip...
Good job!!!
Y'all make this Dee Dee's heart so happy!
We enjoyed being with our family! Granny and Papa were in the hospital. We missed them. Granny has had pneumonia and Papa fell and broke his hip. :(
Y'all went to Sonic one night and invited me to go. SO fun!
Happy 26th birthday, Mommy! Mrs. Sandie came and stayed with y'all so we could go and get our toes done.
Mommy and Dada went to Asheville and you and B came and spent the weekend with us! You've learned the "Thomason" way to say "see you soon!"
We went to Food Truck Friday in Monroe and you got a snow cone and a cheeseburger...
And you and Bennett jumped and bounced the night away...
We met Mrs. Michele and Jenna!
The next morning we went and picked strawberries...
You had to carry the bucket because you are SO big and strong!
We got strawberry ice cream...
No rest for the weary and your vest! Twice a day for 30 minutes...
You love to climb on my bed and snuggle but you have to bring your pillow! :)
That night we went to Disney on Ice!
You love cotton candy!
You were a little upset that Frozen didn't come out first! LOL
You picked an Olaf toy for your prize...
And then we went to eat sushi...
You tried all weekend to catch a dragonfly and you finally did! You wanted me to send Mommy a picture!
Watching a movie is fun!
Watching y'all tackle each other is so cute!
Playing on my bed with the "yellow" I-pad is a special treat!
Bennett doesn't love worms and Charlie as much as you do. You love to throw them on his head...
You were trying to get an ant to go in your water gun! LOL
You are SO big! You are starting to reason things out. You'll tell someone if your feelings get hurt or something doesn't make sense. You are so funny and love to be "big and strong!" You crack us up. I wish I wrote down ALL the funny things you say.
You told Pops you wanted to ride a horse but that he couldn't because Pops would squish the horse! LOL You also said, "I don't like thunder. Can you text and tell it to go back home!?" haha! You call sunscreen sun CREAM. You asked if Pop's name was Chris and we said no, it's Dude and you said... "And you are PRECIOUS!" You are so cute. We were riding down the road this month and you were looking up at the clouds. You said, "See that cloud? It looks like a dinosaur. It has eyes and a head but not a tail and no foot!" Your imagination is precious. It's hard to believe you will be going to pre-school in the fall. I'm not sure if I have ever see a little boy that loves bugs as much as you do. You love to catch anything from a butterfly to moths to a fly and a yellow jacket... yet you are scared silly of the bumble bees that hover at your door. ha! You are SUPER excited for our pool to open next week and really want a shark bathing suit. :)
May is going to be an exciting month! You have your annual CF visit on May 23rd and it's the annual CF walk. We've worked hard to raise money this year but we're behind our target. We got started late because of Dee Dee's kidney surgery... but all total, we have raised $50,000 + for a CURE and research and I couldn't be more happy about that.
I love you to the moon and back and would do ANYTHING to help the foundation find a CURE before you realize how CF will affect you. I am so proud of you. You are a trooper.
Happy 4 years and 1 month, sweet Aspen! I couldn't love you more!
