First Trip

Well, it was just to Alabama, but Cole did so good. We went June 17th-19th. It was so nice to have everyone all together. It had been way to long. Julie and Bert hosted there annual BBQ (Saturday, June 18th) and everyone showed up. It was Jeff and Whitney, Carrie, Zac and Aubrey (left early because poor Aubrey got sick), Adam and Shelley, Emily and Tyler, Shea and Todd, Elizabeth and Kevin, Shaviny and Stan, Regan and Dave, Amber and Morgan and then us of course! Cole was the guest of honor :) Everyone was so excited to see him. It was so good to see everyone as well. It is so funny to see everyone together with kids now!!
I guess we are growing up! hahahaha Here are the kiddos minus poor Aubrey.


We also transitioned Cole to his room/crib when we got back from Alabama. I had really been hoping to do it sooner, but his room is upstairs and our attic was messed up and leaking hot air so Casey had to fix it (which he is never in a hurry to fix anything :) so it took about a month for him to do. Oh well, it is done and Cole has moved in! Apparently he LOVES his bed too! The first night he slept in his bed he slept for 8 hours straight!!! I was not holding my breath that it would last, but it did, well it actually got better. The next night he slept for 10 hours! and that is what he has been doing now for the last week. He goes down around 8:15/30 pm and sleeps until 6:30 am. We cannot ask for better than that. Now we just hope he stays to this schedule.

He loves to smile these days. He is smiling all the time. He has the chunkiest little cheeks too. You can just eat him up with his cute little laugh and smile. We are having the best time with him.
