We Like to Move It Move It

Birthday Boy

Holy cow, Cole is FOUR!  Seriously, that is bananas.  Our sweetbean is a little dude.  It's is kind of a big deal, considering he used to be so small.



But silly things come in small packages


Such a buster


But still tough (ish)


And so dapper!


Always up for adventure


He's got a unique perspective

And some seriously sketchy ideas

He's a guy on the go

Our little champ

We think he's super


He's a swell big brother.  They might drive each other crazy


But they have fun in the sun

We'd like a couple of cupcakes, please

To celebrate a very special occasion - Happy birthday Cole!  Our little nutcake.  You make us smile every day.  With your silly jokes, crazy moves, and joie de vivre.  We love, love, love, you!

Has this summer been zooming by or what? For real, beep beep June, July and August, we were on the go!



 What have we been up to? Hot stuff! So we do what we gotta do to keep cool

 

 Y'know, we're game for anything.  Practicing our touchdown dance, the SuperCole shuffle



 Hitting the pool for a little cross training, aqua fitness is serious business

 

 And y'know, slamming the dunks like LeBron James

 

Also, a little shoe shopping, True got her very first pair, fabulous



Very important for learning how to walk (!!)



These feet are a little wobbly, but we're working on it

 

Sometimes we slow our roll and do some doodling on Cole's new blackboard wall

 

We may have gotten carried away



A little lounging makes us happy too





And of course, some snackin', a girl's gotta eat



Daddy went to London, but we're so happy he's home

 

So, y'know,  just hangin', happy, hugging it out.  The usual.

Happy Mother's Day

A few months ago, I sent my mom this picture with a note saying "Nothing makes me happier than my kids being happy together."
She replied, "that never changes." I'm gonna take her word for it, because she really seems to know what she's doing. So, in honor of Mother's day, here's a few of my favorite pictures that capture the occasional, fleeting and honeybean sweet moments when Cole and True hang like a posse

Doodles


Ham & cheese


Hugs



It makes me one happy mother.

Cupcake Demolition Video

Here's some footage of True enjoying her first Birthday Cupcake.

YUM!

Onederful!

Oooooh happy birthday to Truuuue! We can't believe it has been a whole year since our bouncing baby girl joined the family.

At first she was all (small voice) hi y'all!  

And then she was born, hello!


Which was well documented


She started out so teeny


But then she grew


She has a big personality too


And her own fabulous style




It is tutu much


So she took some naps


Then lounged a bit


Sometimes you have to stop and smell the flowers


Am I right?


Time sure flies when you're having fun, and we've had lots of laughs together



And crazy adventures


We really, really, really, really love you, True.


Your smiles, and silly giggle, your high fives and cozy snuggles, your spirit and spunk. We've had so much fun in year number one.

Now, let's party!


As great grandma rose says, Keep Dancing!
