The past month has been crazy-busy and I am FINALLY getting to update the blog. I hope you enjoy some of the pictures from Thanksgiving and the Christmas season. Thanks to Kathi for watching Cole this afternoon so I can get this updated and finish Christmas shopping and wrapping!

I LOVE SPAGHETTI!


I can't believe he actually got
any in his mouth! But boy is
he having fun!

Meeting Randolph the reindeer

We took Cole to see reindeer. Rudolph wasn't there but we did see and pet Randolph. Before Cole, Justin and I would have never gone to do this. We are really enjoying some of the kid activities we take Cole to, probably more than he does!





Santa brunch

We took Cole to the Santa Brunch at the club. He sat on Santa's lap, but the bottom lip came out right away. He's still not real sure about the whole Santa thing, right now he only wants to sit on Mom's lap.







Cole with his friend Anna. Anna's
parents Chad and Traci and her
brother Garrett joined us for brunch.
Anna is the little girl that always
wanted to "pet" baby Cole.

Lighting of our town's Christmas tree

We took Cole to the Holt Christmas tree lighting. He wasn't really excited about the tree, but he did like to look at the fire truck Santa rode in on.


Getting the Christmas tree!

This Christmas Cole is getting to enjoy the lights, tree and presents. It's hard to believe that almost a year has gone by. Cole was only a week old at his first Christmas.


All bundled up and ready to find
the PERFECT TREE!


We found our tree!


Cole's not sure what Dad is doing
but he thinks it looks like fun.
(No Cole, you cannot have the saw!)


Happy to be making the first of
many Christmas memories!


We had such a good time in Illinois with my Veronica's family. We stayed a couple days longer and got to enjoy seeing the whole family. Grandma Mary was especially happy to get a "Cole fix." We traveled at night which was the best way to travel with an 11 month old. He slept the whole way down and back home.


Very proud Grandma Mary

First Haircut

We took Cole to Casey, the lady that cuts Justin's hair. She was so good with Cole. We thought he would surely cry, but he didn't. He actually seemed to have fun!




What are they doing to me???








Looking good with the new haircut!
