Happy Birthday Hallie!!!

Hallie picked out her party dress and put it on all by herself (too bad mom didn't let her wear it)

She loved playing with the ribbon from the presents,

but Cole thought she needed some help opening them

and then Abby did too.

Snuggling with her new doll and her Grandma (she LOVES her grandma's)

Testing out the cake

Loving the cake

Happy Birthday Hals! We love you, Dad, Mom & Cole.

So stylish

I think spaghetti is a good color for her.

Nothing like hamburger stroganoff to give your hair that healthy glow

I think she got some food in her mouth - but at least she looks good, right?

And for the latest fall fashion, a new way to wear your food...

putting raisins in your ears!!! He is so fashionable (especially in those awesome PJ's)

A new outlook on life

I was uploading my pictures and found some really great ones that gave me a whole new outlook on life. Thank you Cole.

Monkeys and Tigers Oh My

So I pulled out Cole's costumes from last year and the year before. His still fit from last year and I put Hallie in his 1st year costume. Aren't they cute?

Rock Out

Who would have guessed that a $10 guitar from target would have been Cole's favorite toy? Every morning we come downstairs and Cole says that he wants to rock out. We turn on the TV and if it isn't loud enough he gets mad until we turn it WAY up. Then he does his thing.

Publish Post

I knew it!!!

I knew I wouldn't be very good at blogging. Anything that requires me constantly taking and posting pictures is trouble. Sorry. Guess it's a good thing we live close to family, you can see us all the time even if I never update our blog.

It's about Time

So I know I haven't put anything on here for a while. I knew I wouldn't be good at this blogging thing, but oh well. Here's some pics of what we have been up to this summer.
