Jump On It

The last couple weeks have been a little crazy around the Cook house.  I was able to take a day off work and just have some fun with Molly. We ended up taking our friend Lucy,  and meeting up with Jen, drewbie, and hal, for some fun at airborn. Molly had sooo much fun, she loves jumping she talks about it all day long. After that outing we also went to a "jump" place in Idaho with the fam over the weekend. Here are some of my fav pics.

 GETTING SOOOO BIG

JUMPING TO AUNT "COLE" nichole

The kids love their Gma :)

NEED I SAY ANYTHING?!?!

Tyler, Molly, and I just got back from a quick trip to St. George. It was a fun and successful trip :) We always have fun when we stay at the Harker's home. Molly loves playing with her cousins, Logan is so great with her, and Austin keeps her on her toes. That little guy can run, ride, and scoot faster than most children his age... The weather was fairly nice we were able to be outside a little we even warmed up the pool and swam one day. Then the weather turned on us and it was CHILLY! It was really nice just hanging out not doing anything but spending time together! Thanks Harkers for a great weekend.

18 Months Old

I cannot believe that our little girl is already that old. It's crazy how fast time flies. She is such a happy little girl that brings sooo much joy to our family. I always ask myself what I did for entertainment before she came along. Molly is always on the go, wanting to "help" "clean em up", explore, crawl in her tent, feed change and put her babies to bed, dance, and of course be mommy's little shadow.

On her 18 month checkup she was in the 22% for height and 1% for weight. She's a little one that can't seem to gain weight. The doctor asked if Molly could say 8 words that we can understand.. If you know Molly you know why I then laughed. I told him that she is speaking pretty well, and even sentences sometimes. He then asked Molly, "can you already say sentences and go potty on the potty?" Molly replied, "A little bit." He and I were both laughing. Everyday she is saying more and more words we didn't even know she had heard before.  There are so many funny things that she does I could go on all day, but one of her favorite things is to be "nakey" She does not want to get out of the bath tub and when she does we have to dance, ride on the rocking horse, and then play a game of chase before we manage to get pj's on her little body.  This post will be a molly/naked overload and for that i am sorry. But I promise the videos will put a smile on your face!
IF I COULD GET THEM TO UPLOAD! AHHHH
Oh and how could I forget to mention "Kate" her new build-a-bear that she is hooked to the hip with. 

 

 

2012!
I can't believe another year has gone by. The last year was so great, our little family of three enjoyed so many wonderful moments. I have a feeling this next year will be even better. :) For the holidays we spent most our time in Idaho with my side of the fam. It was a blast being all together, the cousins have a lot of fun. Molly would wake up every morning at 6:30 and then name off all her cousins, aunts, and uncles, nana, and papa, while I had to convince her that they were all still sleeping. She just couldn't wait to play with them all.  I took a lot of pics and videos this year but i'm going to try to only share a few of my favorite. After we got home I realized (as i was looking through the pictures) i did not get one picture of our family together or even of me and ty. SAD. I did get plenty of the little miss though!

FEEDING THE DUCKS

Today was a day I hope I will never have to repeat. Molly and I were doing our usual Friday morning things which consist of cleaning the house, lounging, laundry, and just playing. I started to vacuum and Molly was sitting on the couch watching Toy Story. As I got closer to the couch Molly got up on all fours and said, "momma vacuum." The next thing I knew she was on the floor screaming. I picked her up and her whole entire face was BLOOD.... I wanted to die it scared me sooo bad. I noticed it all coming out of her head. I went into panic mode and I started to cry. The blood was coming out so fast and there was so much of it. After ten minutes, a half bag of wipes, and lots of blood later I managed to gather myself and her and head to the doctors office. Sure enough my worst fear, she needed stitches or staples. I said no way on the staples and she ended up with 3 stitches in her pretty little head. She did fairly well, I was a mess when they asked me to hold her down while they stitched. I felt so bad the whole entire time and I still do! Who would have thought a vacuum could cause that much damage. She only fell about a foot, but hit the right spot. After we left the doctors office she kept pointing to her head saying "owie". I know accidents can't always be prevented I just pray I will never have to do it again with a baby. Love you Molly Jane, you were a brave little princess today!

Tonight was one of those nights I am happy to be me. I got to rock Molly to sleep and cuddle for a long time (which never happens). As I was rocking her I started to think how much I love my little family. Ty is gone hunting with the boys in my family for a week, and its just me and the girls. Its only been one night and I miss him already. I am happy to have some mommy/molly time, and having Ty gone helps me realize how much he really means to me. When he gets back i'm sure he'll have some great stories and pics that I will post.
