Cluck Cluck Cluck

Cole seems to have mastered a new trick just about every week. Rolling over, jumping in his jumpee seat, and now, making a weird clucking noise. He does this about once a day.

We will be staying here in Denver for the Thanksgiving holiday so that Emily can focus on completing her first semester with a strong finish. We will be spending Thanksgiving Day with some friends from the seminary and probably watching the Lions lose yet again. Have a great Turkey Day and be thankful!!!

Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow...

Cole woke me up with his usual whining at about 5:30 this morning. As I was crawling back into bed a few minutes later, I decided to look out the window to see if it had snowed, and indeed the ground had a good layer of the white stuff on it. So, once we were up and going, we put Cole into his snow gear and headed outside. Here are the pics and videos.

Mommy and Cole headed out to look at the snow.

Just Cole. He looks pretty excited.

Papa and Gramee come to visit

A couple weeks ago Papa and Gramee came for a quick visit. In a couple of days we managed to celebrate Cole's first Halloween, Ryan's 28th Birthday, and a Gator victory over the Georgia Puppies. We also got to hear all about their mission trip to Haiti, and they got to have lots of fun time with Cole.

Papa got Cole going into some hysterical laughter.

Gramee and Cole on Halloween. Cole didn't give Gramee the black eye; she earned it in a fist fight with some rude Trick-or-Treaters.

Papa tries to cheer up a cranky Cole.
