22 months

Cole's vocabulary is growing weekly I feel. He is saying so much!! One of my current favorites is..." Mommy, I want to hold you!" so sweet. Another favorite is "tum here mommy" and he grabs my hand to lead the way. He is a curious and very busy little guy. It seems crazy, but I am actually planning his birthday party. I have been thinking about it for a while, but today I just called to see if I could reserve a spot to have it and I found a cute stuffed horse that I got for a present/prop. Then when I got home from work the shirt I ordered for him arrived. It is adorable!!! He will LOVE it! He is VERY big into stuffed animals right now. He wants them all. The theme is going to be a barnyard.  He has just started noticing things in the store and wanting them as well. I am not looking forward to that! He as so upset the other day at Publix that he could not have the stuffed bear (they had all there stuff out for Valentines day). The weather has been yuck here. I have had a respiratory infection and Cole has had a lot of congestion as well. We are both ready for Spring and the pretty weather. We had a little taste of it on Valentine's day, but just for a day. We were able to come home and play outside with his big wheel type toy. He didn't want to come in. He loved being outside. That same day his class was outside playing and I had to get him from the playground. He looked at me and said "No, mommy, outside!"
Cole is definitely my child. Not only does he look like me but he acts like me, well and Casey too! He has my outgoing personality and is super friendly, but he has a little stubborn side (which he gets from Casey :) He can go from "No mommy" with major attitude, to "mommy I love you and mommy I want to hold you". He is a ham, but SOOOOO much fun!! I love everyday and thank God for this beautiful child he has blessed me with. It truly is amazing to be blessed to be this little kids mommy and watch everything through his little eyes. I thought Cole was repeating things, but these days he REALLY is! The other day I yelled, "Casey...." and then he yells "Tasey...." so funny. I talk to him all the time and he repeats everything back to me. Like "lets get some milk Cole" and then he will say "yets get some mik mommy". LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this little boy.
