Spunk

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Coleman has more personality in his pinky finger than some people have in their entire being. He is getting more and more funny every day. It's so cool that he can express himself in so many ways. Sometimes I just sit and watch him try to problem solve, or figure out how something works and his faces make me crack up. It's really hard to discipline Cole when he gives me a random funny face. Especially when we are having a "teaching moment".

For some reasons, the past few days I have been very aware of the fact that my little boy is growing up. There must be something about turning 3 that has me totally freaked out. I'm starting to think that I was going to preschool when I was 3...and then I started kindergarten when I was 4. (Yes, I was the baby of the group). Thinking of that totally freaks me out!

He can't go anywhere...I'd be lonely all day without him. Yeah, sometimes he's a handful and I'd give anything to just go get a facial and shop at the outlet stores {I've never had a facial, don't judge me}--but most of the time he is so fun and entertaining. I don't want to watch him grow up and have any regrets about what kind of mom I was, what he did/didn't learn at home, etc. I am really sappy and nostalgic lately about how big (grown up) he is becoming and it scares me to think that his one-on-one time with me won't last much longer. My baby is almost 3!

Awww I love all the pictures! You guys rock! I'm glad you are enjoying yourselves!
It's true, they grow up so fast!! I've been feeling that way and Maddy is only one! I had to laugh at Cole's expressions, those are priceless. I could just imagine you trying to have a "teaching moment" and just cracking up lol. I love the new header too!

What a stud muffin. He is going to be such a lady magnet.
Dude, Rae, where is Danny's "That's so Sweet" blog? I'm not seeing it and I'm starting to panic. It gives me my dose of laughter at work. I NEED that blog!

We need to hang out and have our boys get to be the best of friends. I think Cole is one cute kid and trust me they grow up way too fast. I can't believe Matt will start preschool this fall!
