happy halloween

I was pretty lame for halloween and cole didn't get dressed up. we stayed in and handed out candy. not as much fun without daddy here:(

sleepy

fighting the nap...like normal

getting close

trying to catch the first crawl on video for ryan. he's getting close.

like father, like son

cole is loving the remotes and phones! guess we don't need toys around here. I got out our old phones so he has his own cell phones now! :) he is spoiled? nah.

mudrun 09

This is the mudrun. I didn't do it, but Tessa and friends did, so Cole and I went to watch! There were some pretty good costumes. I didn't get very good pictures, but it was fun to watch.

Had a lil weenie roast at mom and dad's on sunday.

Kurt and Rhonda checking out the aronia bushes..:)

For some reason, this year, mom and dad have HUGE pumpkins!

It's the great pumpkin Charlie Brown!!
watching the fire with Grandpa.

Getting some one on one time with the Anniversary couple...

Happy 60th! We were glad we could make it!

I have some pics of the mass and stuff..but i need to scan them in. not sure i'll get around to that..but we'll see.

wknd in iowa

We got to fly to iowa this weekend for Great Grandma and Grandpa Snaadts 60th wedding anniversary. It was a tad chilly there. Cole wasn't too happy about the hat/coat/mittens thing:)

Hanging out with Mylan and Landan, showing Cole their dance moves. Uncle Kurt throws in a few too:) Mylan is busting it out...:) soo gangsta.


This video would have been soo much better if I would have let the camera keep on going! I was irritated with myself b/c I didn't catch it all....

"when I grow up I wanna be like uncle Ryan, fly big airplanes and save the whole world"
that's the part i missed! DANG IT!

holding my bottle!

I was just commenting today that Cole won't hold his bottle by himself! Then he did it:)

lunch date

Cole had a lunch date with Miss Avery Beth today at Taziki's.

Had to find the perfect outfit..not too dressy not too casual..so he settled on the gap outfit he got from aunt sherry!! Here he is all ready to go!

He was a little nervous and stunned by how cute she is:)
here they are playing...

Cole also got to meet Avery's dad. He was really nice, but a little intimidating:)

Shelley, Caroline, Lauren and Ryan (Avery's parents), Shannon and Hadley were all there too.
We had fun.

driving around

Little Rock has been chilly and rainy, oh for about 5 weeks now! FOR REAL PLEASE QUIT RAINING! here is a lil snap shot of cole riding in the truck with his hood up!

happy birthday aunt chase!!

hawks WIN

"we're gonna fight fight fight for iowa..."

sit and chat

chilling with morgan

there was a better video of him sitting and chatting with me but it was too big i guess. so we'll have to settle on this one with morgan licking his face...

$$

we spent a lil money today (what i do best) cole got a big boy car seat and some new bedding. i talked them down in the price for the bedding..it was the set i'd been eyeing from the beginning!! i'm excited.

yes lynette, i'm a lil above average in my weight...but just b/c i have a double chin doesn't mean i'm fat!!

these pics are a lil dark...and i need to put the matching sheet on with it too..i just wanted to wash it first...
the "monster" himself.
