Bad Guys

The other night Cole did not want to go to bed. I asked him what was wrong and he said that "bad guys" were going to get him. So sad. So I said, "No honey, there aren't any bad guys in your room. Jesus is here, he will protect you." That terrified him, he started looking around for Jesus in his room and he couldn't see him, so now he was even more scared. So now Cole is afraid of "bad guys" and Jesus. Perfect.

Birthday Boy!

This kid is so awesome. Do you ever just look at your kids and just think, "They are so cool." I think that about Cole all of the time. He has such a strong personality, I just think he is so cool. He is absolutely crazy. He gets into everything and makes constant messes, I can't keep up with him, but I think that's why I love him so much. He is a pain in my butt. I think that is why we, as mothers, love our kids so much. Because we stick with them even though they are pains in our butts. Anyway, this little pain is 2 now and I love him more than anything.

Can we say addicted?

I was trying to tell Cole that he didn't need two binkies so he shoved them both in his mouth. "See mom, I do need two." My other two kids never took binkies, he is my first, and I told myself that they were only for the first year. Well, now he is almost 2 and he still has them. I always hated seeing little toddlers walking around with binkies in their mouths and them trying to talk through the binky. So gross and annoying. Well, now I am the mom doing it. How sad! I am annoying myself! I tell myself that I have to take them away but as you can see he likes them a lot. It is a sad day when you realize you are doing exactly what you hated seeing other moms do. I WILL TAKE THEM AWAY! I just don't know when.

Come Out, Come Out, Where Ever You Are

Where did Cole go? I could hear him kind of whining, but I couldn't find him. Finally I open the pantry door, and there he is. Stuck. He is a climber, so I'm not surprised. But I didn't help him right away. I ran away from him to grab the camera, which ticked him off. He thought I wasn't going to help him. I just had to get some pictures of the little guy stuck on a shelf in my pantry. I love the little messes they get themselves into, what would they do without Mommy?

My Baby is 1!!!

My baby has turned one! I feel like I was pregnant yesterday. I can't believe this crazy Mormon world, people are already asking me when I'm going to get pregnant again. Relax people, let my body chill for a minute! I lost so much hair with this third one that I had to cut bangs to even look normal. So for the record I am NOT pregnant. But my little Cole is so cute I should have more.
