All I want for Christmas

I want an Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle!

Chuck E. Cheese

Today was Cole's first time to Chuck E. Cheese. He enjoyed fried mozzarella and...

cheating at Skee Ball!

Winter wonderland

Snowflakes taste good.

Falling in the snow with bare hands isnt fun.

Shopping for a tree

Today Cole helped us pick out the family Christmas tree. He really liked the way the needles felt.

Happy Birthday to Me!!

Our little boy turns 2 today!

Helping Grandma make frosting

This is Cole's favorite time of year. Grandma comes over to make frosting for his birthday and he gets to lick the spatula. What can I say, he is MY child!

Future Dirt Biker

Cole understands the importance of proper safety gear before he rides.

Happy Halloween!!

This was Cole's 2nd Halloween. This year we decided to go trick-or-treating with some friends in Simi Valley. Cole had a rough start but soon got into the spirit of free candy.

This year Cole was a High Seas Buccaneer.

Cole was a little hesitant about all the people running around in costumes, so he chose to ride on Dad's shoulders the whole night.

This was the first piece of candy Cole scored.

He was pretty pleased!

What cupcake? I didn't see one.

He did it again!

I know it's been a while, but I'll make up for the lack of pictures.

He is becoming quite the little boy. He climbed into the cupboard again. This time I was able to get the whole thing on film. AND this time he chose a larger cabinet so he could get in, turn around, and actually get back out.

How I spent Labor Day weekend!

I watched the USC Football game...

I played in the sand at the beach...

I snacked on grapes while lounging with dad....

And when Dad and Grandpa Jo babysit, I can sleep where ever I want!!

Busy Social Calendar

Cole had another busy weekend. On Saturday he was invited to his friend Treyton Wood's birthday. Below is a picture of Cole and Jack.

On Sunday Cole went to his friend Maya's 2nd birthday. Maya had her party at an indoor playground, where Cole and his girlfriends enjoyed driving the Motorhome.

Our Little Man

Our little man is definitely a little boy. Last night he really wanted to get a plastic fork in the back of this cabinet. He really threw himself into the task. The second photo is not staged. I still have a hard time believing that he crawled in and turned himself around. He is so funny.

Update

Cole is doing very well. He is becoming a strong walker, and I would say he can almost run. He loves to play outdoors. Just recently we went to Lake Mead where he loved to splash in the water, and play in the sand. He doesn't mind getting dirty at all.

Cole is also getting quite the social calendar. Just last month he had 3 birthday parties in one weekend. This month he has 2.

He finally weighs more than 20lbs, so he is in a forward facing car seat.
