Cole in the Summer

What a ham! He now calls the camera "cheese". Funny kiddo. =)

OBON!

I know, I know, I'm terrible. TERRIBLE. It's been months since I've posted to Cole's blog. As you can see from these photos, Cole's now quite an accomplished dancer. =) He actually loves music - although he does call all instruments indiscriminately "piano".

Shaking hands and dancing

Kirk taught Cole how to shake hands this morning!

And then later, Cole was showing off his dancing rhythm!

Mommy said no

Happy St Paddy's Day!

Cole's pretty steady on his feet these days. =)

Birthday Boy!

We celebrated Cole's 1st birthday with a BIG bash. I'll admit, it was a bit overboard - clown, 100 cupcakes, tons of food and a helium tank later... But you can't say we didn't thoroughly celebrate. Cole was such a good boy through it all.

Here he is with some of his birthday loot. They make some pretty cool toys these days...the lincoln log / matchbox car days are long gone.

This is the post party hair. Serious.
