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 :(
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!
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?
At Cole's school during the Summer they have outdoor water play a couple of times a week, so each child is required to bring water shoes. Since it is the end of the Summer, we brought home all of his stuff the other night and he decided that he wanted to wear his "wagger shoes" around the house (that is water shoes to you and me, lol). That was funny enough, but then he started wearing his bib around his neck as if it were a cape. I thought that it was so cute so I went to get the camera and as soon as he saw it, he started yelling "cheese! cheese!" without any prompting. I wonder if I take too many pictures, hmmm.....
