Rock Chalk!!!!

Your Jayhawks are currently in the Sweet 16 for March Madness. You watched the game with Daddy, Poppy, and your Uncle David last night...everytime they would tell at the TV you would run up to the tv with your fists in the air and scream at the TV too! We were laughing so hard! Then if they'd cheer, you would run to the TV and clap! If was the cutest thing ever! You'd say "Goooooo U!!!" (For Go KU!) And you'd throw your hands up in the air! Definitely stole the show yesterday! ;)

You still are fighting eating dinners... I just can not figure it out. Usually, if we can force you to take a few bites you'll love it...but I don't know why you fight it so much. You give your mama anxiety; I'm so afraid you aren't getting enough vitamins and nutrients and there's something we need to be doing for you to keep you healthy!

Your follow up at the ENT a few weeks a go was great news...no tubes!!!! The dr thinks maybe your Eustachian tube (your little tube in the ear) has gotten larger this decreasing your ear infections! As of right now, (knock on wood) your last ear infection was in December!!

We had a lot of left over baby food that we just did not want to waste...so we used it as finger paint this past weekend! Your daddy and I was very impressed with you...you actually got your hands dirty!!! We really didn't think you would, but you had a blast! You were covered!!!! :)

Your new baby cousin was born March 14th! Kambree Marie! She is so incredibly tiny but so beautiful just like her sisters! Your Auntie had her Thursday evening after a very rough day...I was so thankful to see her and to know that she was a healthy little girl. There are so many things that can go wrong with and so many risks and threats to a baby's health...it was a relief to know she was ok. She ended up being pretty jaundiced but she did not need to be admitted or anything, so all is well! It broke my heart to see how big you looked next to her though...It doesn't seem like that long a go you were mama's seven pound baby cuddling with me on the couch. Time sure is flying by. I sometimes think about having another baby someday...but for now, you are all mommy and daddy needs! You definitely keep us busy enough! It took a few visits with Kambree for you to really show interest in her...in fact it was all if a sudden one day...you let out a little holler and ran as fast as you could towards her...arms stretched out and all! It was almost like it was that very second that you realized...There's a baby!!!! :)

You are really starting to interact while playing...it's adorable. You play "Where's Lathan?" And hide your face and then jump out at us. You play with your cars and make car sounds while driving, you love to play ball with daddy and you just roll it back and forth... But your most favorite thing to do is chase after the poor dogs. You absolutely LOVE your doggies... Love, love, love them!!!!!

Ma spent a week and a half in the hospital but is back home now.... Those were some very tough days for mommy. My heart wanted to be with you and her both and that was impossible; you are a toddler so sitting still at the hospital was most certainly not on your to do list :) You'd push buttons, grab tubes, knock on doors, and just touch everything you could reach. Your daddy had to spend some extra quality time with you so mama could be with Ma...because on those days, she needed me the most. Thankfully, she is now back home to continue her fight!
