A First!

Mr. Coley Bear gave us a first time experience. Anyone who says you've seen it all by the time you get to your fourth is wrong! :)  Cole got tubes this morning and his adenoids taken out. It was a pretty long wait, but we are very thankful that it's done, it went well, and what was going on with him was/is fixable (we hope)! The girls wanted to come with.... but we opted out on that and went with taking lots of pictures instead. 





After getting in his scrubs, which isn't he the cutest thing ever, we were able to 'hang out' in this little space for about an hour and a half due to the surgery before us taking longer than expected. It was quite a challenge to keep him busy and semi-happy! I spared you pictures of him screaming :) but, there was lots of that due to the lack of being able to run free, eat, or drink anything. 




Meanwhile, the girls were in great hands between dad and Clara!


More waiting... 



The post-op part was a little more crazy. 

What a fun thing to come home to!


Snack time with his bud. 


And here he is :) 

Super thankful for all the family and friends who were praying for us. We shall see how this helps him in the next couple days and weeks. Until then.... :)

February 2018

We ventured to the Iowa Historical Museum for the first time. 












Jay's parents came up for a visit and to celebrate Emma and Paige's birthdays!







Running buddies.


 We had an awesome snow and the perfect day after weather to enjoy it!


They headed out while it was still snowing!
