Having Fun

I feel like we are finally really enjoying ourselves and having lots of fun! The boys are really starting to interact and play together and I love seeing them love and serve each other (when it happens)! Cooper is really growing to LOVE being a big brother and taking care of Cole!

Happy 1st Birthday Cole

Well I can't believe it- Cole is 1!!!! We had a great time with my parents and Boz's family celebrating. Cole is our BIG eater so he LOVED his smash cake as you can see. I took it away before he could eat the whole thing but he was still up until 9:30pm talking to himself in his crib. He loved all the attention and excitement.

For my kid's first birthday I like to make their cake. This one was huge but actually not too bad to make. After we finished, I figured out that it took me longer to make the cake than birth Cole! Thank goodness for a quick delivery!

Cooper LOVES "Baby Cole" and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of Cole's birthday. Since Cole doesn't open presents yet, Coop volunteered to be his helper without hessitation. He kept singing "Happy Birthday" to him all day. In the pic he is giving him a birthday hug.

Fishing Adventure

Boz's brother and his family just bought a new house that has a pond! Needless to say we are all excited! We went fishing with MiMi and PaPa to show them Cooper's fisherman skills. He loves it! At the end we through bread to the fish which was a crazy sight. The sunfish were like little puranas and the catfish like little sharks eating whole pieces of bread! Cole was loving it!

Easter 2009

Easter was great! Cooper practiced for a couple of weeks before the big day Easter egg hunting in our living room. We had so much fun spending time with Kris' family.

Cole's 1st Haircut

As you can see from the picture, Cole has grown a nice mullet. We've been dying to get it cut and today was the day. He did surprisingly well. He loved the comb and just sat and chewed on it while sweet miss debbie cut his hair. Great job Cole!

My Baby is Growing Too Fast!

Our little Cole really cracks us up. He is so sweet and loveable and just laughs at himself and others constantly! We really have so much fun with him and are somewhat sad that he has taken his first steps this week and will be celebrating his 1st birthday in less than a month!

Cooper's 3rd Birthday

Cooper had a birthday extravaganza. Three parties in three days. Needless to say he loved the cake, presents, family and friends. His #1 request was a Steelers football helmet. He had no real understanding but the Steelers did win their 6th Super Bowl on his actual birthday!
