A visit from Brockylicious

A couple of weeks ago my sister and her husband headed to Chicago for the U2 concert. Since this was obviously an adults only trip, my nieces headed to my parent's house, and Brock came to spend the night with us. Cole had such a fun time playing with Brock, and it was great practice for being a wonderful big brother!

American Idol here we come!

Here is a little video of Cole singing along with his new favorite book. He may not be ready for American Idol just yet, but we think that he does a pretty darn good job!

Favorite friend

This picture was too cute to leave off the blog. This is Cole's favorite "friend" that he sleeps with every night, his kitty.

New Project Manager

Scott and I built some shelves in our garage a couple of weeks ago and Cole was such a big help! This is him talking on his cell phone in the middle of the project. Thank goodness he was there!!!!

Snuggle bugs!

Here is a quick pic that Cole and I took of ourselves snuggling in bed one morning when we were missing daddy while he was on his float trip.

Choo-Choo!!!

The weekend of July 24-26 Scott headed to St Louis for a float trip with some friends, so Cole and mommy were flying solo for the weekend. We did lots of fun stuff, and on Saturday night we went down the the Railroad Cafe with our friends Brie and Jax. The restaurant is at Crown Center, and across the street are some fountains that kids like to play in when it gets hot so Brie and I brought the boy's swim trunks along. They had such a great time running and playing in the water, and there were TONS of other kids there playing. After they were done and we got them all dried off and back in regular clothes, we all got dessert at Sheridan's. It was a great night and we had lots of fun with our friends!

T-Rex with Aunt B! (July 10-still behind)

Scott's little sister came to stay with us for the night and we all headed out to T-Rex for dinner. We weren't sure how Cole would react, but he LOVED it!!! We let him make a dinosaur, and he named it Rex. Pretty clever, huh? He thought that it was all pretty cool, and he had a great time with Aunt B!
