Cole Carlson: 1 Year, 2 Months

Cole buddy is another month older and we are sure seeing more and more spunk from this little boy. He spends so much time growling, saying wow, throwing things, and demanding attention that I don't feel he will ever be that quiet youngest sibling! Here is what he has been up to:

*He is wearing size 12 month clothes still. Size 4 diaper during the day and size 6 at night. He's leaked through everything, but Target diapers.
*He walks around the house like he is a little monster. He growls, stomps his feet, and throws things...all with a smile on his face.
*He loves his sleep sack and loves carrying it around like a security blanket.
*He still has his 6 teeth. He seems to be working on a couple more.
*He says mama, Dada, ball, wow.
* He loves to throw anything and everything down the cat door.
* He loves to dance...shakes his head, claps, bounces.
* He loves to play with balls, pots and pans, cars and his race track, and anything that he can fit in his hands or mouth.
* He is sleeping better. He takes one afternoon nap, goes to bed around 7:15, wants a drink of milk around 4 and sleeps until 7.
* He will drink from any cup he finds and force you to feed him whatever you are eating.
* he is still a mama's boy and I spend most of my days with him in my arms.
* he butts heads with his sister, Harper. Brett and I agree that they are going to fight constantly until they realize they can team up against us. They are truly two peas in a pod.

January Fun

January was sooo cold and snowy that we found it hard to really get out of the house and have some fun. Besides a couple play dates, trips to the mall, and music class at the library we spent our days at home. We played a lot of Zombie Mommy (where I chase the kids around the house pretending to be a zombie), had dance parties, watched movies, and did a few experiments. Here are some pictures of our fun:

Cousins Sleepover

Over Christmas break we had Kennedy and Addie stay with us for two days and one night. The girls play so well together and they had fun playing with all of their new Christmas presents. We had a lot of fun and even made a trip out to the Science Center!

Winter Sunshine

Its been a few weeks, but there was a break in the freezing cold and we were able to get outside for a few hours. The girls had fun making a snowman, throwing snowballs, riding bikes and scooters, and catching some rays!
