First and foremost...we are CRAWLING! Cole officially became mobile on Father's Day. Turns out Guitar Hero wasn't the only gift Shawn was going to receive for Father's Day. Cole is quick and determined and into everything. Our family room got a lot larger last weekend when we moved the coffee table into the garage. From talking to friends with babies, it sounds like this is just all part of having little ones. You learn to live without a coffee table for a couple of years. We are adjusting well, but seriously considering purchasing TV trays. Yes, perhaps we are 80 year olds trapped in 30-something bodies.
Not only is Cole crawling, but he has also won 2, yes 2, crawling contests at daycare. He and another baby boy, Mason, were racing earlier this week. Sounds like Mason gave Cole a head start during one of the races...but Mason is 4 months older than Cole. Shawn is proud of Cole's competitive nature already. Major Leagues...here we come.
Another fun event -- Cole now has 2 teeth! This morning I was getting him dressed for daycare and took a peek and noticed another tooth is cutting through. As Shawn says, he'll be eating ribs in no time.
Speaking of ribs...Cole has started eating meat and boy is he a carnivore! He is loving turkey and chicken. Proof below...
I could make this picture an entire posting on it's own. I laughed for a long time about this. Cole is just starting finger foods and snacks on "puffs." He was happily eating this one when all of a sudden he couldn't find it anymore and was very confused. You can see the puff fell out of his mouth and landed right on his chin. I kept it there for my own amusement.
We've pulled out a few new toys for Cole and this one is a definite hit! If he can't strike it rich in the Major Leagues, maybe the NBA is always an option? He will definitely need height from Grandpa Fromhold!
Another new toy that he loves...his Diet Coke bottle. More proof he is my son...
We leave on Thursday to go to Olympia for the weekend. Looking forward to seeing family, especially my nephew...he turned 2 a few weeks ago! Also looking forward to seeing my sister's growing belly...if I haven't shared she is pregnant with baby #2...due October 12th...IT'S A GIRL!
It will be hot, hot, hot in the Valley of the Sun this weekend. More pool time and lots of sunblock in our future! Have a great weekend!
