Elmo PJ's!




I know this may sound stupid, but I never thought I would be one of those moms to buy my kid some pajamas or clothing that had cartoon characters on them. Well, things change when you become a mom! Last night, we were at Wal-Mart and he saw these pajamas and had to have them. It was between Thomas the Train and Elmo. I chose the Elmo ones because I thought they were cuter-yes, cute. Of course as soon as we got home I put them on him and they are actually the cutest pajamas on him! I may be kind of biased, but I think anything he wears is cute because it's on him. So, here are a few pictures of the new pj's...it sure is a lot cheaper to shop at Wal-Mart!

New Weekend Pics!







Cole has been sick since last week..he had a sinus infection. But, by Saturday he was back to his old self. Gaga and Papa Moody came to spend the night Saturday night and babysat Cole while we went to watch "the" game(there's only one) at Aunt Jessie and Uncle Billy's house. We had a great time as did Cole. I am posting some pictures of his new thing. Since Darrin says that my blog is not interesting-(ha) Cole is doing a new trick! Anyway, anytime you get on to him, he pokes his bottom lip out and drops his head. Well, of course, we have made it a joke now. When you tell him to poke his lip out he does it so I tried to get some pictures of it. It's really funnier in person. Maybe I can get a video of it!

Dancing to the Music..

Cole loves to dance! So, as we were watching the CMA Awards last night, I decided to video him with my camera. (Our video camera is dead and we can't find the charger.) It's a little dark, but you can still see him getting down.

Healthy!

Cole's test results came back normal! I have had to go round and round with them to get the results back, but they finally called me today to let me know that everything was fine. They are calling him in some medicine to increase his appetite. Hopefully that will help! I hope it doesn't make him "fat!" I told someone today that the doctor has probably been worried about Cole because she looks at me and Michael and says "Something has to be wrong with that child! His parents are too big for him to be that small!" ha! Not really, but she probably has thought that before. Anyway, hopefully the medicine will work..for right now I'm just thankful for a HEALTHY child.....!!!!

Weekend Update
















We had a great weekend filled with watching football games and eating good food! We went over to Mandy and Darrin's Saturday to watch Alabama beat LSU!!! Darrin cooked some wonderful food on the grill including chicken wrapped in bacon, meatballs, and a salmon log. Cole and Halle had a wonderful time playing with each other......maybe Mandy will post some pictures of them on her blog because I didn't have my camera..hint hint Mandy!!!! The only pictures I have from this weekend are a few Christmas card picture shots and a few snapshots of Cole. We attempted the whole Christmas card picture thing Saturday morning, but ended up going to Fleming Photography for a more professional look. Cole goes for his test tomorrow and hopefully we'll get those test results back on Wednesday. Will post more then!

Update


Our first set of bloodwork came back normal. We are waiting on the celiac test and the Cystic Fibrosis test that is being done on Tuesday. I have been making him drink Pediasure all day and also making him eat really fattening foods so that he will gain weight. I'm hoping that it will work for him and not for me because I've been eating all those fattening foods too. We keep telling him to eat so that he can be a football player when he gets bigger. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Cole

Yesterday we went to the pediatrician so that Cole could have a weight check. We've been doing this since he came home from the hospital because of him being a preemie. Well, when they weighed him, they noticed that he had lost 8 ounces-from 23 lbs. 11 oz. to 23 lbs. 3 oz. So-Dr. Cunningham sent us over to the hospital for some lab work and we also have to go to Children's Hospital in Birmingham to make sure he doesn't have Cystic Fibrosis. From what the doctor says, weight loss can be a sign of that. Hopefully there is nothing wrong with him, but the doctor is just taking precautionary measures. So, everyone please pray that we will get a healthy diagnosis and that his weight loss is only due to him being so very active and eating so little. On a lighter note, we also went to two eye doctors and got great check ups. No coke bottle lenses for now....ha! Hopefully he didn't inherit my eyesight. I'll post more when I hear back from the doctor.

Halloween











Cole's 3rd Halloween was so much fun! He was really into getting the candy this year, although he "not like my jacket."(his costume) Here are some pictures from Friday night.
