Cole's blessing







Cole was blessed this past Sunday and all of Aaron's family and my family was able to be there for it. Aaron's great-grandpa was able to be in the blessing circle which was really cool.

Zoe was giving her baby a bath she loves to play mom. She also flooded her bathroom floor in the process.

Cole is starting to smile




He loves to coo and smile now, Zoe was never a very smiley baby, she was good but not as easy to please.

Update and Granpda Kirks 100th birthday

















This past weekend was Aaron's great-grandpa's 100th birthday! We celebrated on both saturday and sunday! We love Grandpa Kirk! Also I finally got Zoe and Cole to both cooperate for a picture! They are both happy and healthy. I thought Zoe was a good baby but Cole makes her look fussy! Seriously the guy hardly cries he just fusses a little until you get a bottle in his mouth or pat his back. We love our kids! Zoe has the cutest personality her new thing to do is to ask me and Aaron about 100 times a day," but why?" example:
Me: Zoe don't go into the street without holding my hand
Zoe: but why
Me: because you could get hit by a car and get hurt
Zoe: but why
Me: because I said so Zoe
Zoe: but why
It gets a little old but she is just learning!

Update
























































The past two weeks have gone by so fast. Cole has been such a good baby, really I don't know what I did to deserve a baby that only wakes up once between 10 and 6 it is heaven! Zoe loves Cole and she is such a good helper. She has been having fun going to the pool and swimming all summer! As for me and Aaron we are loving having two kids! Aaron is going to be starting his job in Vegas in the next month and he will be working shifts about every other weekend till we move down there in November.

Zoe and Cole plus 4th of July
















So Cole has been home for 6 days now and he is such a great baby. The NICU had him on a feeding schedule so he eats and sleeps great for a newborn. He wakes up twice to eat at night which is nice for Aaron and I because we can switch of feedings. Zoe loves Cole and is so helpful. She is so protective of him and gets anxious when anyone besides Aaron or I hold him. My family also came down last weekend for the 4th of July and to see Cole. Zoe loves when they visit, she gets so spoiled!

Cole update
















Cole is now on room air and is just working on his feedings. He has to take all his feedings by bottle for 48 hours and gain weight to come home. We are hoping that he will be home within the next week. Thank you all for the support and prayers in Cole's behalf, it means the world to me and Aaron that we have so many friends and family members supporting us through this.
