Colton Eugene

It is me again.. I know everyone was probably thinking yup one blog and she is done. But I promise I tried really hard to think of something to write. I think the most exciting thing besides KU losing 3 games in a row to unranked teams, was an AT&T guy don't following the "no solicitors" sign on our door. Trust me, as Brian was hiding in the guest room I got the point across he was wasting his time!

But I think I will talk about my adorable nephew Colton in this post.

Is he not the cutest little runt you have ever seen?!?!?!?!
This picture was taken before he went in to surgery this afternoon.

Just a little recap. Colton was born about 2 months early and at some point had stopped growing in the womb. So when he came out he was only 1lb 7oz.

Such a difference in photos huh?? Well I would hope so considering he is 5 months old.

Anyways, he has had quite the journey in his little life so far. But today he took a giant step towards ending his life in this hospital and experiencing the greatest of his Aunt Tamren. I feel bad because I haven't seen the little fella since he was in Topeka which was December, but I have been taken care of his best friend he has yet to meet (Kirley Sue the K9). Sorry, got off track again, anyways today he had surgery to have a g-tube/Mickey button put in and his hernias reparied. The g-tube is like a small button inserted so that they can feed him through it. He does great a few days breast feeding and then decides he doesn't want to do. If you know my family, we can be a little stubborn, so I think that is where he gets this from. Well now that he has had the g-tube inserted they said he could be home in 1-2 weeks, YAH!!!! Amy and Jordan have to learn how to work the mickey button and then he should be home..

And let me tell you, I can't wait to get my hands on that little fart. I don't think they realize I might bring Kirley home to them, and then sneak Colton in to my car and head on home. If I get caught, I just won't put him down. The grandparents have gotten to hold/touch him for quite awhile now, while the rest of us have had to wait. I'm getting tired of waiting, I'm sure I may have to fight his other aunts and uncles off but I will prevail :).

I'm stepping up the blogging game with photos.. Now if our lives would just get more entertaining so I have more to blog about on a regular basis!
