Watch out World, Here He Comes!!

Cole is officially walking! He started taking a bunch of steps last weekend, and now he is really on the move! Here are a couple of videos of him this afternoon!! He's still a little stiff, but his confidence is definitely up!

Happy 1st Birthday to Cole!!

I can't believe our littlest guy is 1 year old today. His first year went by way too fast, but we have enjoyed every minute of it (well, most of it anyway)!! We are looking forward to his birthday party on Saturday! Hopefully everyone in our house will be over this virus that we are passing around. Cole was home sick on Friday and Chase came home sick yesterday! They are both back at daycare/preschool today and things are good so far! Keep your fingers crossed for us. The house is being de-germified as we speak, so hopefully that will help!

We gave Cole a couple of presents this morning...he didn't seem to be too impressed, and he let Chase open them for him! Maybe it was just too early! He's not the morning person that his big brother is! Chase actually gave Cole his gift last night b/c he just couldn't wait any longer!! Chase definitely takes after me in the gift department!! I got to open my bday gift early thanks to him too!! We came home one evening last week and he said "Mommy, we wrapped your present this morning. Do you want to open it?" I said that I would wait until my birthday, and then Chase said "Ok, it's a new iPod" and walked off!! I couldn't stop laughing! Then the next day he proceeded to tell me that he got me a card that sings and then he went on to say that it sings Celebration!! He is hilarious! After all that, Nick gave in and let me open the gift!! Thanks Chase!!! :-)

I have a big pot of meatballs cooking at home for Cole's birthday dinner. I am hoping they turn out good!! I can't wait to walk in and smell them along with the clean house...2 of the best smells ever!!

Here are a couple of pics of Cole opening his gifts!
