I hate fire hydrants!

So Cole's new obsession happens to be fire hydrants. We have no clue why he is so crazy for them. I mean, dogs pee on fire hydrants so what is so great about them! Plus, he doesn't even know what they do or their purpose. He just likes them! The only thing I can think of is that there are a million different colors of fire hydrants all over Houston. If we walk into Target, we say hi and bye to the fire hydrant out front. The street that takes us from Hwy 288 to our church has like 500 of them and some are blue with green tops and some are green with blue tops. Regardless, our child is crazy! We literally say hi to every single fire hydrant in the world b/c Cole is sure to find it. It is pretty funny. The best part is that he calls it a giar-odrick. Not sure if you can pronounce what I was trying to write but that's how he says it. No one has any clue what he is talking about when he says it except for us, so when we explain, people look at us like we have the most odd child ever. Tonight we took Cole to the park but baby sister got fussy so we left early. I don't know if many other kids do this but Cole always finds a comfort word. For a long time it was Elmo, for a while it was Mickey Mouse and now it is "giar-odrick" but we don't know why he does this. If he has a meltdown or is throwing a tantrum he says it over and over again. So when leaving the park tonight and for 15 minutes after we got home he screamed "giar-odrick" which is why I decided to post tonight. I can't imagine that anything else could be on my mind b/c that word seems to be on repeat in my brain. Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!
PS.... Chloe is doing great! I feel bad b/c most of my posts are about Cole b/c he is the crazy 2 year old and there are so many stories to tell. Chloe is 12 weeks old today. We can't believe how fast the time has flown by. She is the most precious, perfect little angel. She is in her own room now and such a great sleeper. She isn't sleeping through the night but has done so a few times. Most of the time she wakes around 4am and then that is it. This morning she slept until 7 and Cole until 7:20! It was awesome! Anyway, she is so much fun b/c she is smiling nonstop and talks like crazy. She is a big cooing baby and she loves to squeal. She is always on her play mat b/c she LOVES the blinking star on it and b/c big brother insists that he get most of the attention so poor baby gets left on her play mat. Everything else is going great in the Lunsford household. We go on our annual trip to Florida with the Riches in less than 2 weeks so we are getting so excited. More to come...
