Sugar High!

On Halloween, after passing out candy to all the trick-or-treaters, Cole decided that he wanted me to tie his "Patrick" bear around his neck like a cape and then proceeded to run around the house. Yes, that is sticky candy all over his face and Yes, he is most definitely on a sugar high! LOL

He's definitely a silly silly little boy!

The Big Boy Bed!

Yesterday we went and bought Cole a new "big boy" bed!! I figured since we had just moved anyways, it would be easier not even to set up his crib and just transition him into a toddler bed now! He slept in his Pack'N'Play for a couple nights and was sooooo excited to sleep in his new bed last night. Nick set it up and Cole instantly got in it and wouldn't even get out to read his bedtime stories! He slept in it really well and only fell out once during the night... hehe!!

In other news, I am sooooo close to being done with my first trimester, which means I might actually update my blog more once I'm feeling better! :)

Oops! Forgot to post these photos!

Okay so these photos are kind of old, they were take back in July but I just realized I never posted them and I thought they were super cute. A couple months ago I made Cole these really cute flash cards with colors and numbers on them. Well, he has never really gotten that they are flash cards and uses them for other things, like lining them up on the floor, or putting them on the kitchen floor and using them to slide around on the floor.

He thinks it is sooo funny to put one on each foot and "skate" around. He then makes me do it with him!

Cole's New Game

So a couple of days ago Cole started playing this random game! I don't know where he learned it, we sure as heck didn't teach it to him. He takes his toy bat and finds a ball (any ball will work!) puts it on the floor and hits it. Once he has hit it far enough, he throws down the bat and runs around in circles in the middle of the room. He does this over and over. The first time he did it, I just thought that maybe I gave him too many popsicles and he was on a sugar high, lol! But he's been doing it a lot lately! He's watched baseball on TV and been to a couple games, so maybe that's where he picked it up? Who knows? The mind of a 2 year old is a mystery to me!!

Enjoy!

Finally! The Sports Photos!!

One of our favorite parts of living over here on the West side is that we have the opportunity to go to so many different sporting events. Last Monday, Nick's boss gave him some tickets for that night's Mariner's game. We brought Cole with us because he does really good at baseball games. We actually lucked out because even though our seats weren't aisle seat and were kind of crowded, there were a few completely empty rows right above us so we moved there. Cole had fun runnning up and down the row and being able to sit in a big boy seat!

Here he is in his seat enjoying some french fries (with ketchup!)

They also have an area you can go to at the games where you can take your picture with the Mariner's Moose. Cole is OBSESSED with this moose! He says it over and over and is so excited when we get to go see him. Although he is pretty shy, he did give the moose high five this time!

Nick also bought some tickets to a couple of UW football games this year. We took Cole to the first one since he does so well at the baseball games. Yeah, we probably won't take him to another one for awhile because he got CRAZY with all the screaming football fans! He was sooooo hyper and just out of control!

Here he is waiting for the bus to get loaded on the way to the game.

Walking through the crowds at the stadium holding Daddy's hand!

Having fun with Mommy in the stands!!

A little bit of an update: Nick actually took Cole to another UW game today, this time during the day and he did a lot better!! Nick said he loved it when the Husky Dog started barking and he would go "RUFF RUFF RUFF" with everyone!

Sunday Clothes

So basically I am sucking at blogging lately!! I'm sorry but I'm here now and I have one picture for you! Yes just one, I'm too tired for the rest LOL!

But look how grown up my little baby boy looks in his shirt and tie!! SO stinkin' adorable!!

Okay, that should last you for awhile, I'll try to be back tomorrow with a few more!

Uh Oh!!

Okay, so I am just sitting here on my computer, and I hear a weird noise in the background, kind of like someone rubbing something all over the wall. Being dumb, I don't really bother to see what the noise it, I just figure Cole is playing around. So I finally turn around to see what he is doing and wouldn't you know it, he's coloring ALL over the wall!!!!!!! Yikes!!

Here's his work station, as you can see he had plenty of colors to choose from and he took advantage of them all! Why in the heck did I ever change the rule of only two crayons at a time?

And here he is with his masterpiece!! LOL, yes I made him take a picture with it, is that sending the wrong message? I told him no coloring on the wall and took the crayons out of his hands before pulling out the camera, does that count?

I thought I had some magic erasers around here but I don't so I will have to wait until Nick gets home before cleaning it up! I reallllly wanted to clean it before he came home so that he would maybe never know about it! LOL Although posting pictures on this blog probably isn't the best way to keep it a secret! ;)

Okay, tomorrow I will post the sports pictures!
