Cole Carlson: Two Years Old!

This boy!!! Cole is two years old. How time truly flies! I can hardly believe it when TWO comes out of my mouth, but the minute I'm in his presence I'm fast reminded that he is TWO indeed! Terribly two. :) We are in full swing of the fun 'terrible two' stage. But along with that comes his sweet, charming, and loving personality! Here is what he's up to at two years old:

* he is talking up a storm. He asks HOW in addition to WHY. Usually one after the other, repeated several time.
* Thanks to two big sisters he is identifying colors mostly as purple and pink. But more colors are starting to come along.
* He visited the dentist for the first time. The goofy front teeth we thought for sure would need some work, were normal for baby teeth. He hated the dentist, but loves his goodies.
* He is wearing  size 5/6 shoe. Size 18 months pants and 2t shirts.
*he almost always takes his socks and shoes off when he vets in the van.
* he is a little guy weighing in at just 22 pounds. He is a picky eater...he picks at everything unless it's a snack. Cookie, candy, chip, dip, and snacks are some of his favorite words. He loves to snack.
* he has an ornery grin that is so stinking cute.
* he still prefers to play with balls and trucks. He does still like to play with Harper's dolls.
* he likes to steal his sisters' toys and runs away laughing.
* he isn't potty trained yet, but does identify when going and will sometimes go on the potty.
* he is known to color on the walls with his big sis, Harp.
* he will do just about anything that Harper tells him to do...not good.
* he loves gum.
* he sleeps well. Two hour afternoon naps and sleeps through most nights. He still uses his paci when sleeping. We weren't ready for that fight!

He is such a fun boy. Even though we end each night exhausted and drag our tired bodies out of bed each morning, we are so glad to have him in our family!
