About a Boy


Little Cole is not so little anymore! 18 months and off to nursery class at church. What a sweet and fun little boy. Isn't he so yummy??


Cole loves cars....anything that goes. His train table from Christmas has been a hit. He is in to his hammer toy with balls and whacks at it hard. He also loves his ball popper toy and sit on ride toy he got for his first birthday. He likes to try and follow the kids and copy what they do. He always joins them on the trampoline right now which they only like for a little bit because they can't jump when he's on. He does like to have the tramp to himself and jumps like a pro! He is very possesive of mom and dad. He gets very jealous if any of the kids sit on our laps or we hold them. He turns mean and aggressive hitting and throwing whatever is nearby. He can go from happy to crying in about 3 seconds flat when mom and dad are loving anyone else! He follows Jared around most of the time and wants to be held and have him all to himself. He often sits on Daddy's lap for dinner. He can entertain himself in his room for a long time. Playing with the train set, the house, strollers, cars, ELMO doll, books, or the ball popper. When its time for bed he wants silky and likes to listen to his toy that plays classical music. He's really good at going down to bed.

His favorite books right now are ELMO foam book that has pop outs, the big truck book, and the Fisher Price lift the flap big board books.

Thank goodness he's a good eater so far. He'll eat lots of things especially if he gets to do it himself. He LOVES to eat: bananas, sliced lunch meat, p.b and honey sandwiches, yogurt (all by himself), hotdogs, rice, pizza noodles and cookies. He loves to pray with us. He will fold his arms and stay that way through the whole prayer. He's such a good boy. He especially loves doing "hands" at the end of the night.

Although we wish he would speak more words, he does say a few including:

Mama, Dadda, "SSS" for silky, bubble, ball, more, night-night, uh-oh, and ba-ba "baby". We're working with him on it.

We just adore this last little guy and having him in our family. We are all just soaking him in as much as possible before he gets any bigger. The kids have so much fun playing ball, cars, and outside with him.

Is he really already 18 mo. old? Wow - that was fast. At least fast to me, since we don't live close. I loved it when Ava went to Nursery. Good luck. What a cutie.

All your kids are "yummy!"
18 months is how old Hannah was when you moved into 3rd ward...can't believe how time flies! It is bitter sweet, our babies growing up!

Cute boy! Cute pic's! You are so good at keeping up with your blog, how you will love to look back and remember exactly what he was doing at 18 months.

You must be mistaken. Cole is still a newborn!! There's no way he is already 18mos!!!! Time is flying by WAY too fast. Love the pics.
