Thankful

We had a super Thanksgiving in Texas with Marc's brother and family... short trip but wonderful! Cole wore us out as he was so interested in all the new things to see. He even had a reaction to some medicine the night before Thanksgiving, and was up from 9:45pm-3:45am! We were thankful to get some sleep! Seems the problem has been solved. Hope your Thanksgiving was fabulous, too!




Snatching O's from Papa Ron..

Cole right after take-off... with Nana and Papa Ron. He slept the entire way to DFW! So did I!

Cole waiting for the plane to take off! He's reading his Elmo book that makes noise. Everyone LOVES us on the plane, and has "skip the the Loo" stuck in their head, thanks to us!

Halloween

Happy Halloween! Cole had a great time this year, I kept telling him, "it's only going to get better!". He was a turtle (due to the cuteness of the way he pronounces it himself..) the costume was very cozy and he loved being in it! We took him around the neighborhood in his car and he was quite content riding. He did, however, get a tootsie pop which suited his fancy as he held it, wrapper still on. Aunt Lara's here for a visit and she got to be with us for Halloween, too! We've had a busy week, but fun!

A "must see"!

This is the very first video I ever took (it happened to be close to Halloween last year) ... there's a surprise!

Make sure your volume is on....

Pumpkins!

It finally feels like fall here in Nashville...after a long summer, fall rolled in this week with lots of rain! We went to a great pumpkin patch in town and Cole couldn't get enough! He loves pumpkins...we had to bring a few home to decorate..

We've been really busy and are really looking forward to taking Cole to trick or treat (we'll be lucky if we make it to 2 houses!) My sister is coming for a visit next week, so we're stoked about that! More pictures coming soon!!!

Traveling Around

Here are some pictures from our trip to DC! We had such a wonderful time, the weather was perfect and our little traveler couldn't have been any better! The sites we saw include: the monuments, "Museum of Natural History", archives, The White House...we went on an "open bus tour" which sounds really cheesy, but was so much fun! Cole caught a cold (probably from the bus, oops!) but managed to still be perky. He's proved to be such a traveler that we might have to plan another trip soon!

Saluting all Moms!

We may not put out fires, but we're heroes every day!

My boys

I had to post this tonight because I was looking through pictures and as I came across this one, I realized it was exactly a year old!
I can't believe how much Cole has changed and grown. I'm sure I will continue to marvel at the changes in him, as well as us as parents and individuals. I think Cole looks so much like Marc in this picture....
