busted

Apparently he has been watching me put formula in bags for the diaper bag. Look at that face!

The King

Elvis and his 50's gal!

Elvis loved the ladies! And that fact made this the perfect costume for Cole! He loves a pretty girl! (Just ask his long distance lady Lucy!) At the zoo he tried to ditch us to follow any pretty gal that walked by (especially the ones dressed as cat's meee-ow!).

Boo at the Zoo

We decided to put our Zoo memberships to good use and show off Becca's costume handiwork at Boo at the Zoo. It was CRAZY how many people were there, but we managed to have a really good time together! Cole loved the Zoo, and the candy was a definite bonus!

How cute are they?

Cole was obsessed with this HUGE dog. It took us forever to convince him to go to the next stop!

Check out that rhinestone guitar! Justin was so crafty!

The boys sat on this hay for a photo opp, but the best pics were of the residue from the hay...check out his toosh as he walks away!

And this is how Ali spent the day. She was out cold for the whole crazy adventure.

A Boo-rific Playgroup!

Playgroup was so much fun! Here are a few pics of Cole with his pal Cooper (Bam Bam), and Ali with her BFF Macy!

2-4-6-8 who do we appriciate?

As if Becca was not amazing enough already, she has become quite the Halloween costume seamstress! If you remember her handiwork on the football costume two years ago, then you already know she is talented. But...I believe she has outdone herself this year! She made Ali's skirt and Cole's jumpsuit...after just making an outline for a pattern she went home and whipped this out and it fit like a glove! My only contribution was the poodle, and Justin's claim to fame...the rhinestone guitar on the cape. Becca, you are simply AMAZING! Thanks for all your hard work!

Preschool Politics

With all the anticipation of today's events, there has been a ton of talk on TV morning shows about the election. I did not know how closely Cole was following the election however, until yesterday afternoon when Cole turned to me between bites of his sandwich and said "Barack Obama?" I asked him to repeat what he said and he said "Barack Obama" again and started cracking up. All day whenever there was a dull moment he repeated "Barack Obama" and laughed uncontrollably. Apparently he found this presidential candidate to be quite hilarious. When we called Justin at work to let him in on the joke, Justin asked Cole who he was voting for and he said McCain. Who knew he was so informed?

Special Delivery!

Look Closely...apparently he wanted to mail himself. Yet another example of his obsession with mail these days!
