Cole 5 1/2 Months

Cole is 5 1/2 months now. Wow has time flown by! He is getting so much easier and he is so happy. He is always smiling and laughing. He still spits up and drools like crazy. He is starting to sit up by himself now and is rolling everywhere! His favorite thing to do watch Halle play and he loves it when she plays with him.

Halle 3 yrs and Cole 4 1/2 months

I got Halle and Cole's pictures taken a couple of weeks ago. Getting two kids pictures taken is a little more stressful, especially when you are trying to get them together. I do wish Mandy could have taken them but has hard to getting up to Logan to do it.

Finally, Halle is not afraid of the water anymore! She has always been very timid about getting in the water. So, I thought that there was no way I was going to be able to go swimming this year with her and Cole. But we went to St. George a couple of weeks ago and she did great by herself with a life jacket. Yea!!

Easter!

We had a great Easter. On Saturday our neighborhood had an East Egg Hunt. The Easter bunny came and they also had face painting. After that we headed up to Logan to spend the weekend with Toph's family. We had a couple of Easter Egg hunts and also had a yummy dinner. It was a fun weekend and it was good to see Toph's family.

Spring break in St. George

My sister and I decided to take our kids to to St. George for the week of spring break. The weather was perfect! We were able to sit outside and just be in the sun. At this time of year I get so sick of winter and just need some sun but of course it is way to cold to be outside. So we did a lot of swimming, playing at the park and of course we fit in a little shopping. Instead of going to restaurants we ordered in yummy take it and so ended up being a pretty relaxing vacation. Cole did awesome down there and he was an angel on the drive.

Cole's Blessing

We blessed Cole last week, Finally! I know he is almost 4 months old but we were waiting for warmer weather and for there not to be as much sickness. Well, the day before his blessing we all got colds. So much good it did us waiting. Cole and I didn't get it that bad but Toph and Halle got it really bad. Anyway it went really well and it was great having both of our families there. Thanks to Toph's family for driving down to be here for it.

When he smiles now he sticks his tounge out. It is the cutest, funniest thing!

Halle was being so stubburn about taking a picture. She would not look at the camera or smile. So we could not get a good family picture.

Halle Turned 3yrs!

Halle turned 3yrs old! We had a little birthday party for her and it was so cute! She is OBSESSED with birthday parties so we had to throw her one. She had a Dora Princess party. Everything turned out great except the fact that she had a really bad cold and she didn't feel very good but she still had a blast!

Disneyland Vacation!

We just got back from Disneyland and we had a great time! We had the best weather. I was a little worried before we had left because it had been raining there but every day was awesome weather. We went to Disneyland that first day and Halle loved going to see all of the Disney Characters. I was a little worried that she wouldn't want to go on any of the rides but she rode everything she was tall enough to go on. She even went on the Matter Horn which I thought she would freak out but she loved it! The second day we went to California Adventure for the first half of the day. She loved the Toy Story Ride the best there. We then went back to Disneyland the second half of the day and Halle gave her Binkys to Mickey Mouse. (I know she is a little old to still have a Binky and I have been wanting to get rid of the Binky for a long time. We got rid of it for the most part when she turned two but then I got pregnant and that all went out the door. Then I had Cole and there was no way I was going to take it away then, so finally with no more excuses we had her give all of her Binkys to Mickey Mouse and now she is officially done with the Binky! Yea!!)

On the 3rd day we drove down to San Diego and went to Sea World. I was a little disappointed because the people don't get into the water with Shamu anymore. Halle had a great time there though. The last day we went to the Wild Animal Park and the Beach. I think that the part of the trip Halle wanted to do the most was going to the beach and making a sand castle and making sand angels. She did so good and Cole did pretty good himself (I was surprised). We had a great time and I am so glad we went. I was a little worried to go taking a 3 month old and all but it turned out great!

The Tea Cups were her favorite ride! She wanted to go on them over and over again. Toph was a good sport. He went with her every time because the Tea Cups make me sick.

I think she was a little sad because she just gave Mickey her Binky's.

Again she is not looking at the camera. Shocker!

More Tea Cups!

Great picture I know, but it was the only one I had with both kids.

Halle has to do a pose in every picture.

He did really good in the stroller!

Toph took this picture. I don't know know why he cut Big Bird's head off. :)

I didn't get that many pictures of Cole so here are some random ones.

It is so hard to get her smiling AND looking at the camera!

Sea World. They had a water section which she loved play at.

Wild Animal Park

I think the sun was a little bright for Cole.

Our beautiful sand castle! Yea I know it is a pretty weak sand castle.

Making sand angels.
