Happy Birthday Cole!!!

So yesterday was Cole's 4th birthday. He had a great day. He got to take cupcakes to preschool and got special treatment at school that day. He got to wear a special star sticker and be first in line for the day. He got pretty spoiled. My parents got him a spiderman scooter that he's been riding all over the house. He also got a WWII tank with some little guns that he loves. I'll post pictures this weekend after his birthday party with his little friends.

So being 4 is pretty cool. He's in preschool three days a week. He loves doing school work, can write his name, knows all his ABC's, and can count to 10. He's a pretty good big brother and is trying to teach Finn everything he knows. If only he could get him to go bear hunting with him. He told my mom on the phone yesterday that he was growing up and when I asked him for a kiss before I left preschool yesterday, he looked right at me and said "no thank you mom"!!! I wasn't quite ready for that.

New to the blogging world!!!

Hello friends and family, my sister has finally suckered me into this whole blogging world. I will do my best to keep up with current articles and pictures. My sister Maria and her husband Rod and son Caden came in on Friday and are with us until Tuesday. We have been having a great time visiting and playing with the boys. The boys have been quite the handful these past few days, they tend to fight more than they enjoy playing together. Cole is really into pretend playing and knows exactly how he wants things played out. Caden on the other hand is a bit more lax and enjoys wrecking Cole's creations and doesn't quite get the "pretend play". They have had a few good moments, but for the most part, Maria and I have been at a constant battle of time out's and lot of crying. We both have headaches! I was able to crack open a few beers to relax myself, Maria on the other hand, had a regular Pepsi! Here are a few pictures of Cole and Caden playing with the kites we bought them, Cole's was Spiderman and Caden's was the Cars. They really enjoyed playing with them.
