Sweet 15!

My baby boy turned 15 yesterday.  I can't believe it!  You think you can't wait for them to grow up sometimes (come on, most of has thought that) then when it is here, you wonder where the time went.  My mom always told me that the older you get, the faster time goes.  I totally believe it.  And I can't figure out how my kids have become older and I stay the same age...29!  (cough)  I have pics of Collin getting his license and will post when I get my new computer.  I haven't been able to post very many pics, as you can tell, because this old computer doesn't have the parts to upload pics with. 

Collin was barely 6lbs when he was born.  He barely fit into preemie clothes.  One of his little socks would fit on my finger!  Now he is 5' 9.5" (I have to put the .5" per his request) and weighs over 200#.  He is built like a football player.  He almost didn't make it twice.  Once was while I was 4 months pregnant with him and I had to have my appendix removed.  I had to have emergency surgery.  Thank God that Dr. Wurm knew something wasn't right because I didn't have the classic symptoms.  The other was during birth when we kept losing his heart beat.  I had to be on oxygen and they kept slowing down the process then speeding it up.  I kept begging my dad to go get his calf pullers!  Finally, after 22 hours of labor, the little bugger was born.  After he was born, Dr. Wurm told me no more babies.  No problem!  I had difficulty giving birth to my daughter as well. 

So, anyway...happy birthday Bearcat!  We all love you very much.
