The Great Train Expo

I went out of town a few weeks ago, so Scott and Cole decided to have some Daddy and Cole time at the Great Train Expo. Cole is VERY into trains right now, so he loved seeing all the cool things.

Happy 2nd Birthday!!!

We celebrated Cole's 2nd birthday a couple of weeks ago and it was such a fun day for him and us. The theme of his party was MU vs KU in honor of the big game that happened the week after his party on the day of his actual birthday.

First Haircut....finally.

Well, it took awhile, but we finally took Cole to have his first haircut. He did so great, and just sat there in the chair like such a big boy. His hair looks great, but I think that he aged 5 years by the time he got out of the chair :(

Neewollah!

Scott's dad lives in a small town in Kansas where they have a halloween festival every year called Neewollah (halloween spelled backwards). One of the events every year is a kiddie parade where hundreds of little kids get dressed up and march down main street in a "parade". We wanted to go down this year and have Cole participate, and since he is so little, we knew that we would have to walk with him. Since we were gonna be there anyway, we figured that we might as well dress up with him, lol. The costumes and the "Mystery Machine" all turned out really well, and we all had a great time!

New Funny

So Cole has this new thing that he does that just cracks us up. If he is playing or working with something and it doesn't do what he wants, he likes to tell it "NO!" So if he is trying to get on the couch to read a book and the book slides off while he is climbing up, he points at the book and says "no book!". My favorite is when he is trying to stand his plastic animals up and they fall over (pretty common given their tiny legs) and he starts yelling "no ostrich, no cow!". Hmmmmmm....I wonder where he gets this?

Zoo Fun!

Last weekend we took a little trip to the zoo with Cole. We couldn't have asked for better weather, and we had a great time seeing all the animals!
