What a cool date! Apparently the last time we will have another date like it. My friend Karin had her baby boy today, on his due date!! Welcome Kohen Michael. That would be a pretty cool birthday. I felt like I needed an update then I remembered the date and thought I definitely need to post to remember this date. So Cole will be 20 months tomorrow. That sounds crazy! 20 months! That's almost 2 years old!?!? How did that happen? He is amazing. Full of personality and he just talks, talks, talks. He has begun to repeat, yes people watch what you say, I have a repeater who is taking everything in. He loves Caillou. This is his new found love in the last month. It is a cartoon on Sprout. Caillou is a 4 year old with a high pitch baby voice and his is bald. Not sure what it is about him, but he is a big hit. He loves to run, jump and bounce. A favorite is for him to come up to you and say "horsey" which means he wants you to bounce him on your leg. Apparently he is looking more and more like me (I have heard it is harder for the people who look alike to see it, I think that is true). A lot of people have said he looks like me for a while, but now I get it from complete strangers when we are out. It's a little funny.
Cole is not sure about Christmas but he loves "ho ho" which it what he says whenever he sees a Santa hat. He loves the tree "tee". He has done really well with the tree. It is really funny, but there is this one ornament that apparently he does not like. He would look for it and yank it off. Casey hid the ornament and ever since he has not paid any attention to it really besides telling us there is a tree there. So weird and funny. I took Cole to see Santa Saturday. A girl that I went to HS with, her sister Andrea, has her own business. She did a Santa photo shoot out of her house. I loved the Santa. He looked so "real". Cole did not cry, but he was not sure about him. I think it was so much for him that he blocked it out because when I ask him "did you see Santa?" he says "no". He was so serious. Casey said it was because he had on that "awful", his words, outfit. Besides Casey, everyone loved it and I got SO many compliments on it. I do not dress him like that often, but I thought it was cute for the picture.

Caillou-in case you don't know him!
