Winter and "why"?

So the temperature has definitely dropped! This past weekend we were under a ice possibility/scare. We actually got out of school 2 hrs early on Friday because the threat was to start coming in at 4pm. Nothing happened, but it is always nice to get out of school 2 hrs early on a Friday.
My sweet boy
Cole is NOT in the Christmas spirit. If you ask him what he wants for Christmas he says "nuffin". I said you don't want ANY toys? "No mommy! I don't want any toys!" I guess I should just take advantage of this time, right? He is just so adamant and funny about the whole thing. We did go see Santa as well. He was not a fan at first, although he did not really resist, fight or even try to get out of Santa's lap. He just sat there crying. Me and the assistant were jumping around hollering things he stopped, looked at us and we got a little smile. The photographer laughed and said "well, mom you got both shots. Cry and Smiling"
So just in the last 3-4 days Cole has started saying "why?" to any and everything. Even when there is nothing else to even question, he does! Oh my goodness! It has been a long 4 days of "why?" hahahaha...
He is ALL about super heros and bad guys. Although in his mind the super heros are bad guys. Not sure why he thinks that? but he thinks they are great. He talks about them ALL the time. He is also really into TMNT (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles). So Santa is a little scary, but not turtles that have mutated into the size of humans?!?! hahaha... It's really funny how much he is into them when he really knows nothing about them. We started watching a few, but they are just so rough for 2 year olds. i mean he is only 2. Casey did find a cartoon that has like baby/little heros on youtube and Cole has liked that show. I am not sure what it is called though. Since he has this love Uncle Craig has become a HUGE fan. Cole talks about him ALL the time. Craig is a big comic book fan. He has a whole room of his toys and comics. Cole has seen this and now talks about Craig all the time. Seriously, if you did not know Craig you would think he was Cole's imaginary friend. Anything and everything is "and Craig too mommy?" and then of course " I miss Craig", "I want Craig", etc... Craig is loving being the #1 Uncle right now for sure! :)
Cole and I went  to Alabama this past Saturday. We had it planned for a little while. Cole had been asking to see the girls and then Julie got tickets to  go see Disney on Ice. I want sure what Cole would think of it, but he really liked it. It was really good. The theme was Princess' and Heroes. The Heros were the Prince characters from the movies.


Being goofy!

Not liking Santa :(

Realizing he isn't so bad :)
Fun at Disney on Ice

Worn out from the weekend on AL
